A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: The Hedge Knight is a Game of Thrones prequel set 100 years before the original series. It follows the story of Ser Duncan the Tall, a courageous knight, and his diminutive squire, Egg. The series will explore their adventures in an era when the Targaryen line still held the Iron Throne.

Game of Thrones was one of the most influential TV shows of the past decade, known for its complex characters, intricate politics, and grand battles. The original series, based on George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire novels, concluded with mixed reactions from fans, making every new spinoff highly anticipated. House of the Dragon successfully launched, focusing on the Targaryen civil war known as the Dance of the Dragons. With this rich backdrop, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms aims to delve into lesser-known, yet equally compelling, aspects of Westeros history.
