Chapter Twenty-Two - Tyrion 6 - A Dance with Dragons | A Song of Ice and Fire (ASOIAF)
Send us a textTyrion isn’t dead. But will have to (painfully) test himself for greyscale for the rest of his life. On a detour to a brothel during a fact-finding mission, he’s waylaid by a bear-like Westerosi knight who plans to take him to the Queen. Mackelly and Simon wonder which queen?Chapter Review:Tyrion Lannister wakes aboard the Shy Maid. His companions have pulled him from the river and are treating his extremities with vinegar to prevent greyscale infection. He must prick his extremities every few hours to check for loss of feeling.He talks to Young Griff (aka Aegon Targaryen) over a game of cyvasse. The young man shares what he’s been told of his rescue. When things looked bad in King’s Landing, Varys paid a tanner for his baby and smuggled the real Aegon across the Narrow Sea to Ilyrio Mopatis. Tyrion gives the young prince a few useful lessons, in particular not to expect a warm welcome from Aunty Daenerys. And to perhaps go to Dorne and lay his claim to the Iron Throne for himself. Then when they do reunite, it will be as equals.Tyrion visits Selhorys with Haldon. They learn that the Red Priests are singing Dany’s praises, that she is Azor Ahai reborn. But that the nobility of the Rhoyne are very much opposed to her thwarting of the slave trade. Tyrion detours to a brothel where he drunkenly encounters a Westerosi knight, who calls him Imp, draws steel, and announces that he’ll be taking Tyrion to the Queen.Characters/Places/Names/Events:Tyrion Lannister - Youngest son of Tywin Lannister whom he recently murdered.

He is granted admission to Moat Cailin where he discovers his countrymen in a sorry state. They’re sick, tired, and losing hope. They recognize Theon for what he was (Balon Greyjoy’s son) and what he is (Ramsay’s dog). He offers them terms: stay and die or be fed, treated, and freed to return to the Stony Shore.He has intel that Victarion is not coming back and that they’ve been abandoned and forgotten. This last silences dissent and the men agree. Only 63 men leave the towers to the incredulity of Ramsay’s forces who felt they’d been fighting far more. Theon has a flash of pride for the ironborn.Ramsay is pleased with Theon and rewards him with meat, wine, and an upgrade in his quarters. Three days later Roose Bolton arrives with his new wife Walda Frey and Ramsay’s fiancée Arya Stark.

Mackelly and Simon light a candle to the Father.Chapter Review:Davos Seaworth is brought before the Merman’s Court. He’d hoped for a private audience with Lord Wyman Manderly, but the hall is packed with a host of people and a mischief of Freys. Davos makes his pitch for why the Manderlys should side with Stannis, but it doesn’t go well. Wyllis Manderly (the heir) is a captive of the Lannisters and the family don’t want to risk his life.The Freys spin an incredible yarn of their version of the Red Wedding: Robb Stark and his men turned into wolves and attacked everyone. Wendel Manderly died defending the Lord Walder Frey. Davos would use an exploding head emoji. Only Wyllis’ daughter Wylla sides with Davos: they killed the Starks, they killed my uncle, how could we side with them?Rhaegar Frey argues that Robb abandoned the North, then abandoned the Riverlands.
