He had traveled in the Free Cities, learning the poisoner’s trade and perhaps arts darker still, if rumors could be believed. He had studied at the Citadel, going so far as to forge six links of a maester’s chain before he grew bored. He had soldiered in the Disputed Lands across the narrow sea, riding with the Second Sons for a time before forming his own company. His tourneys, his battles, his duels, his horses, his carnality…it was said that he bedded men and women both, and had begotten bastard girls all over Dorne. The sand snakes, men called his daughters.
Martin really created a powerhouse character, only to kill him in the same book...like bloody hell you made him so perfect only to give him such brutal end and people ask why We hate and love Martin😭
Also, while he did die, he lived longer than Ned Or Robert did🥲 and if not for Elia's murder, one could have said his life was lil too perfect. Second son, brilliant,sharp mind, wasn't honorable just for the sake of it. Was bloody intelligent and handsome. And lived till 40. And his daughters are known as sand snakes lol just perfect!
