She's being trained as an assassin, so the question is who is she going to kill? Werthead Send a noteboard - 16/08/2011 01:43:12 AM
It no longer seems to have any relevance to the rest of the story and without that it has gone from being relevant and horrifying to just horrifying.


Given the Faceless Men's hatred of the Valyrians, my guess is that she's going to be sent to kill Daenerys. However, some other target in Westeros (Stannis? Walder Frey?) is also possible.
