Description ADwD spoilers!

Am I the only one who greatly enjoyed learning about Varys and Illyrio's shared past in Pentos? Damn, I love Varys. Anyway here are those old crafty mofos in the good old days.

I like it.. however, Illyrio is described as being morbidly obese. I really like that you did an illustration of the less conventional characters, though!

This is when they where young!!! Illyrio even have a statue of his own naked with sword in hand at his garden!!!(it sound strange written like that)

Yes, it was really awesome to hear about Varys past! I think he's a fascinating character, and hope to see more of him (I'm about 2/3 through the fifth book).

Nice image! Unfortunately, my Varys love has shriveled, and I now no longer trust him.

Pojypojy In reply to duckchick [2011-10-15 23:18:42 +0000 UTC]

Oooh, that's too bad! I actually expected him to be no Lannister loyalist given how he probably enabled Tywin's murder, so while I didn't see that coming (I mean, being an epilogue POV I knew Kevan was toast - I just didn't anticipate it would have been the spider to take him out), his DwD actions made sense to me.

Io mi chiedo perchΓ© i due siano tanto fedeli ai Targ, dopo tutti questi anni. Cosa ci guadagneranno, loro, dal rimetterli sul trono?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Pojypojy In reply to cabepfir [2011-10-03 00:33:01 +0000 UTC]

eh, ma infatti secondo me non Γ¨ fedeltΓ  (beh, Illyrio puΓ² semplicemente farlo per soldi), c'Γ¨ sicuramente qualche altro motivo sotto.

cabepfir In reply to Pojypojy [2011-10-03 08:21:05 +0000 UTC]

Sono sedici anni che i due cospirano a favore dei Targ rimasti, e mi viene da dubitare che per gente come loro la fedeltΓ  abbia quasi piΓΉ valore che per Ned Stark... Ci deve essere altro.

In ritardissimo per commentare ma io ho una teoria rigurado alla lealtΓ  di varys verso i targaryen, credo dipenda da ciΓ² che gli disse il fuoco dello stregone quando fu evirato, ma non so

cabepfir In reply to Melagris [2019-04-19 07:20:19 +0000 UTC]

sono un po' lontana dal mondo di ASOIAF adesso, ma in ogni caso penso che ci sono ancora molte cose che non sappiamo di Varys

i enjoyed that too, but i wonder if that was 100% the real deal, because with illiryo u never know.

Pojypojy In reply to palitajimena [2011-09-27 20:25:23 +0000 UTC]

I wondered too, but then I came to the conclusion that with only two (theoretical) books to go and virtually no previous information on either Varys or Illyrio, I don't think GRRM would be starting to set up a false track now (though I might be wrong of course). And Varys' actual agenda is still obscure...

I do not doubt his agenda... but I sometimes think he knows how to use magic... something much more interesting than just having a troop of children everywhere.

Non sei la sola, te l'assicuro! Varys piace un sacco anche a me, non vedevo l'ora di sapere qualcosa di piΓΉ sul suo passato. Mi piace molto l'atmosfera da Italia quattrocentesca che hai dato sia al vicolo che al giovane Illyrio

Yeah, I enjoyed it too. Also, the fact that Illyrio used to be hot
Varys got quite a comeback, eh.

Pojypojy In reply to Marliv [2011-09-27 20:27:05 +0000 UTC]

I wonder if one of the underlying messages of ASoIaF is "Nobody stays hot for long, you either lose a limb, age badly or die young"!

Well, she has also been routinely abused for most of her time in King's Landing, I guess that counts as her own version of the "break the cutie" trope I surely hope she stays safe.
