Already in episode one, just sitting there on the steps with her begging bowl, she could overhear fragments of conversation about the murder she had committed. Not today.” And every night at supper, she would be brought something to drink that renews the blindness for the next day, a potion drink with a queer, bitter taste: “Even the faint smell that warned her what it was before it touched her tongue soon made her feel like retching, but she drained the cup all the same.” Even knowing it will make her blind, she drinks it, willingly, because to do so means she accepts that she has much to learn. She’ll have to relinquish such attachments to continue on her path.) “Arya is still not ‘no one,’” Wlaschiha said, “and that’s the biggest obstacle.”ĭuring this phase of her training in the books, Arya is asked every morning, “Would you like to have your eyes back? Ask, and you shall see.” Every morning she replies, “I may want them on the morrow. Making Arya go blind wasn’t just to punish her, but to force her into the next phase of training, “to sharpen all her other senses.” The guild of assassins were not pleased with Arya’s actions before, “because she really disobeyed them,” but the larger concern wasn’t so much that she didn’t follow orders, but that she was still clinging to a remnant of Arya Stark.
“Her training continues,” explained Tom Wlaschiha, who plays H’ghar. Could it be that simple? And why does she not accept the offer? Now, A Man is offering to give food, shelter, even her eyes back, if she would just say her own name. After she went off-script and assassinated not the man she was assigned to, but someone on her personal revenge-oriented kill list, Jaqen H’ghar blinded Arya, leaving her to fend for herself on the streets of Braavos. However, we have been suspicious as to why Jaqen just let Arya leave the Faceless Men back in the Season 6 episode “No One.” It all seemed far too easy.Spoilers ahead for the most recent episode of Game of Thrones as well as A Song of Ice and Fire.Īyra’s going through a pretty brutal punishment - or, as the Faceless Men might call it, an education. This seems like a really elaborate plan, and with only three episodes left, it’s hard to imagine all of this coming to fruition. I think that she is serving the order somewhat unknowingly,” the user adds. “I don't think that Arya is aware that there was a price paid for the ’s assassination.
So basically what the Redditor is arguing is that the Faceless Men put it in Arya’s head that she was capable of killing the Night King, and pushed her to carry out their plan for them without her knowing their real intentions. By paying the Order, they are covering their bet on Cersei."
If the ’s army were to win the battle of Winterfell, Cersei's army would stand no chance once the collected additional troops and moved to King’s Landing. The Iron bank had recently given a sizable loan to Cersei and are typically good about ensuring that their gambles/loans always pay out in the end. I tend to think that the Iron Bank could have paid the order for the assassination of the. "The Order is known for taking a sacrifice or payment in order to carry out an assassination. It’s an endless chain of mutual protection that would ultimately protect the Iron Bank more than anyone else. What if the members of the Faceless Men were really doing the bidding of the Iron Bank, who knew that without their help, Winterfell would fall and King’s Landing would be next? We know that the Iron Bank awarded Cersei a large loan, so if they used the Faceless Men to safeguard King’s Landing, their deal with Cersei would be safe as well. Jaqen likely wouldn’t have allowed anyone to take faces, however, he might have if he knew Arya was going to use them to embark on a mission that would save the Seven Kingdoms.īut the Redditor brings up another prediction that’s even more of a twist. Reddit fan u/lxBATESxl is convinced that Arya was actually doing the Faceless Men’s work in killing the Night King, and that Jaqen H'ghar let her take some faces from the House of Black and White when she left to go back to Winterfell two seasons ago. But what if the assassination of the Night King was all planned by the Faceless Men, the organization that turned Arya into the fierce assassin that she is? We knew Arya was tough, but now she's clearly proven just how fierce a fighter she is. Since the latest episode of Game of Thrones, titled “The Long Night,” Arya Stark has been the source of many discussions among fans.
