The eunuch's tale


MissMatchedEyes

Recommended Posts

My theory is that Varys was a FM acolyte and the whole ritual was part of the FM initiation:

Varys was a mummer: We know the FM acolytes do some kind of internship with mummers (maybe Varys performed at the Ship, the theater/brothel where the audience could pay to get some the actors. That sure sounds like the man who cut him)

The Kindly Man tells Arya that Him of Many Faces will take all of her, including her "private parts"

The KM also says something about "drinking from the cold cup", which could be the potion the man used to numb Varys before cutting him. We also know the FM use potions like that, like the one they gave Arya to make her blind

I still believe it was Marwyn that cut him. Marwyn taught Mirri about the human body and magic. Mirri made blood sacrifices and paralyzed Drogo. Varys said (the sorceror) gave him a potion that paralyzed him, then cut off his junk.



Similar properties, as the junk would be harnessed as blood magic, especially, if Varys has valyrian blood (NOT kingsblood, the secret is in valyrian).

I have to wonder if Varys' tale is true, though, or if he maybe added to it or left elements out.



If there is more to his background than is obvious, and he has indeed some sort of Targaryen connection, he would probably not make that publicly known, and for all we know, there could be more to how he became a eunuch as well. Targaryens have been known to do all sorts of weird things in order to breed dragons.
