Arya Wargface Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 It's pretty clear the Quaithe wants Dany to go to Asshai, but why? I believe Illyrio states that Dany's dragon eggs came from the shadow lands, so that could be one peice. Also, the whole go East to go West thing, but once again, why does Quaithe want Dany to do anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs.Grumpy Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 That, my dear, is an excellent question. Though not one easily answered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Monkey Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Quaithe might be the Westerosi equivalent of a scammer, and she's just going to mug Daenerys when she shows up. She probably sends the same message to almost everyone in Essos at one point or another and robs anyone who is dumb enough to actually go to a place called "Asshai-by-the-Shadow".

Glenn of House Patrick Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 If she really goes East to go West, she'll never make it to Westeros. Then again, it's not like she's ready to leave Meereen anytime soon anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who she is, or what her motives are, I have no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Boar of Gore Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Quaithe is a prophetess or a priestess? She knows Dany is the Pwwp, and is needed to win the war for the dawn.Also, now that Dany can ride Drogon, going to Asshai won't take that long.

The Duke Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 She is really just some regular women being warged long distance by Hodor. Hodor can only say Hodor because he is too busy concentrating on warging half way around the world.I don't think GRRM has given enough info about Quaithe to make any real determination. She only has three appearances in the series iirc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildBlood Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 I read an interesting thread/theory about her being ashara dayne... Not sure if I am on board, but it certainly was interesting lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Monkey Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 I think its pretty clear she is trying to help Dany. Who she is, or what her motives are, I have no idea.Not trying very hard, is she? Could her prophecies be any less helpful or less clear? All she does is give her riddles that can be misinterpreted, and tell her to be wary of people that are obviously untrustworthy (don't trust Reznak? NO ONE trusts Reznak!)

Bloodraven is a grown man when Egg and Aemon were boys.Shiera was known for practicing sorcery to make her appear younger. Given that Brynden was able to use magic to extend his life, it's not much of a stretch that Shiera could do the same, especially in a place like Asshai.
