Chapter Seventy-One - Daenerys 6 - A Storm of Swords | A Song of Ice and Fire (ASOIAF)
Manage episode 383677985 series 2615231
Daenerys has taken Meereen, but Astapor and Yunkai are backsliding. She forgives Barristan Selmy for his failures to protect her family, but banishes Jorah Mormont from her sight. She’ll stay in Meereen and rule. Mackelly and Simon settle in to watch some dragons grow.
Chapter Review:
Daenerys Targaryen surveys Meereen from the great pyramid. She’s bothered by flies who’ve gathered to feast on the many dead, including the 163 she crucified as payment for what they did to the slave children.
She meets an envoy from Astapor. The council she appointed have all lost their heads, literally, and a former (and apparently current) butcher Cleon, has made himself King. He offers his hand in marriage. Dany is distinctly disinterested. The second petitioner is a Qartheen trader. He has goods he wants to trade for slaves. He’s surely barking up the wrong tree. Only Daario Naharis confirms that many freed slaves are down at the docks offering to reenter slavery. Dany begrudgingly allows it and imposes a tax on the trade to swell her own coffers.
Next she sees Ser Barristan Selmy and Ser Jorah Mormont. The former gives it to her straight. Her father was mad, Viserys had the hallmarks too. Robert Baratheon was a great knight, and could have been a good king. She appreciates the candor and reinstates him to her service. Mormont tries a similar tack. He spied for Varys for a pardon, as recently as Qarth. But this is too much for Dany. She banishes Jorah forever.
