      I really like this video because your explanation would have made good sense if GRRM hasn't released those chapters that will clearly contrast the theory. More specifically, the one that "why is Euron confident that he will win Dany and Dragon"

      Please keep in mind that this question comes from a non-book reader. And it's only just occurred to me now, when doing a repeat watch of this particular video however many years later. But considering that Euron seems to be the character in this whole universe most directly associated with the most batshit, insane, intense "Lovecraftian level of magic" (as you guys have said several times before) is there anyone that thinks this could theory could be true by way of that he's literally in both places at once? That he somehow found a way to split/clone/whatever his body? Again, from a non-book reader, but if there's one person in this whole saga who potentially COULD do something like that, I'd wager it'd be Euron. I'm certainly not making a real argument for it legit being the case, but this possible element only just came to me.

      Explain to me why Daario can't love Dany. Even the most treacherous people are capable of affection. Also Daario is probably not in love with Dany's grace and beautiful soul. She's basically a young beautiful badass queen. You don't need an ulterior motive to sleep with her.

    Almost all the problems in this theory are solved if Euron is working with the faceless men. Euron has admitted he is responsible for the death of Balon but not by his own hand, and the man described throwing Balon from the bridge is a "man with no face". Euron also once said he threw a dragon egg into the sea, but if Euron is seriously interested in using dragons to takeover Westeros or even moderately values powerful, magical objects, he would never do such a thing and is most likely lying to cover up the fact he used the egg to pay off the faceless men for Balon's assassination.
    If Euron is intent on stealing Dany's dragons, he doesn't need the egg that he uses to pay the faceless men with to complete his plans, which might be why he would offer it so willingly. In turn, the Faceless men are ancestral survivors of the "Doom of Valyria" and are even implied to be the cause of it, and seem to have their own plot that may involve going against Dany and her dragons by possibly enacting the same kind of magic or ritual used to destroy Valyria in the first place when the faceless men originally revolted against the Targaryens.
    In the upcoming book, its now confirmed Euron uses and experiments with blood magic, as he's seen preparing for a great sacrifice to summon some great terror to Westeros, so its very, very likely he uses blood magic to increase his sailing abilities to extraordinary, supernatural levels, making his quick voyage between the two places possible.
    If Euron and the Faceless men are both working together, its enitrely possible Faceless men are filling in for Euron both as himself and as darius between the gaps of his absence in either place. While Euron goes off to try and seduce Dany in mereen, a Faceless man may be wearing Euron's face back home as he organizes or possibly participates in raids on the reach. It might even be possible that the blood ritual Euron is seen preparing for in the upcoming book is directly connected to the Faceless men's plot, whom I remind you, are worshipers of death.

    Let's go back to what we know about each character.
    When Dany meets Daario she notices his flamboyant Tyroshi style:
    Daario Naharis was flamboyant even for a Tyroshi. His beard was cut into three prongs and dyed blue, the same color as his eyes and the curly hair that fell to his collar. His pointed mustachios were painted gold.
    Now what do we know about Euron? He drinks a very particular beverage.
    "I mean to open your eyes." Euron drank deep from his own cup, and smiled. "Shade-of-the-evening, the wine of the warlocks."
    So we know that Euron is drinking shade-of-the evening, which is connected with the Pyat Pree and the warlocks. Where do the warlocks live? The House of the Undying.
    Un-dying.
    Now how could Euron -- who we know has a connection to the un-dying ones -- also be Daario who actively participates in dyeing?
    He can't. It doesn't make sense."

Daario likely had been with the stormcrows for years... probably even before Dany had learned to walk... and we know that Euron had been sailing around the world during those years as well... so no way they are the same person.

I know I didn't initially realize who Selmy was when I was reading the books.

    We know that Daario is really good at falling asleep. When Euron is too busy to skinchange Daario, you know what could happen to a body without a mind? It’d fall asleep.

There are only so many different personality types in fiction so two characters are inevitably going to match at some point.

    - When the Iron Fleet takes the Shields, they do it by sailing super far into the west to take them by surprise. I think Euron might be sailing to slavers bay by going west instead of east to shave off some time; either that or hes cutting through the Smoking Sea.

Also, the Meereenese navy in the show has the same number of ships as Victarion's Iron Fleet because they're cutting the Greyjoy uncles from the show. Thankfully, you conclude the theory is probably not true. But still... it's a silly crack theory. Fun to think about? Maybe, but there are cooler theories around :P

    At 9:09 you said Daario doesn't believe in the gods. Daario says this in the books too
    But When Euron is at the kingsmoot in the iron islands, he says to Aeron "You serve one god, Damphair, but I have served ten thousand.". He says this when Aeron calls him godless.
    Coincidence? I think not!

    Jesus Christ, Books=/=Show. Just compare the Dornish plot in both of them, or Jaime's storyline, or Sansa's.
    This theory is quite farfetched but it should not yet be dismissed.

    • @Trazynn
      @Trazynn 8 лет назад +5

      I think Dorne failed in the TV show because the writers went into it without understanding the complete arc yet. When GRR martin gave the full outline it was too late already.
      Look at how Dorne starts. It's very accurate with CoK but then it starts to meander and moves way too far from what it was actually intended to be (the whole Mycelle marriage claim plot) so now the show is caught up with a really idiotic lose end they tried to wind back in again. Mostly by killing people.

    • @Eugene_TEC
      @Eugene_TEC 8 лет назад +7

      The showrunners wanted to establish a connection with the viewers by placing established characters like Jaime and Bronn into Dorne. They justified it through Jaime's love of Cersei. This set back Jaime's character arc by miles.
      Since Ellaria is in favor of peace in the books, her role is small. Since she is the only living Dorne character we saw in ASOS, they replaced Arianne and Darkstar with her and turned Doran into Ellaria. I think that's fair, but they executed it terribly and without a hint of nuance and now they want to turn Ellaria into book Doran despite her coming off as a psycho kinslaying bitch.
      It is clear that they wanted to go their own way with S5 hence it being near completely divergent from the books. I think that's fine, but by the end of it they must have realised they fucked up badly and decided to cater to book readers by giving them AFFC plots one season too late, and then executing them in an incredibly anemic and half assed manner.

  • @CptnFloppyhair
    @CptnFloppyhair 8 лет назад +4

    Show-watcher and spoiler-reader here, going through his first read of AFFC, so grain of salt disclaimer goes here. Just got past the Kingsmoot, which made me want to revisit this video. Felt compelled to don my tinfoil hat and take a stab at some of the loose ends.
    So the biggest counterpoints to DH=EG presented in the video are:
    1) Even with some physical similarities, there are differences in appearance to account for, like Daario's beard/tooth/eyes.
    2) Even if we accept blood magic assisted winds, slaver's bay is VERY far from the Iron Islands, and making the trip in the time allotted is dubious. Even if the timeline DID work, it's unlikely a ship as notorious as Silence would go unnoticed along the way.
    3) Even if the timeline theoretically allows for absences from the POV characters, both Daario and Euron have other places they're purported to be with men who would notice their absence; Yunkai for Daario and The Reach for Euron respectively.
    Now, the first point is also the easiest to sidestep. The video puts forth a few plausible-if-unlikely suggestions for each dissimilarity, and given Euron's knowledge of Essos and penchant for the occult it's even plausible he'd have learned a thing or two from the Faceless Men. Plenty of reasonable doubt on this front.
    The second point is trickier. The furthest south Euron is expected to be is the Reach, and he'd likely have to get provisions multiple times on the way to Slaver's Bay, providing plenty of risk that he'd be noticed.
    What if he's not continuing south, though? There are numerous references to sailors longing to explore west of Westeros, and similarities between the Ironmen and Vikings make them a good historical parallel for trailblazing a western trail. What if in Euron's journeys, he discovered a route connecting the western coast of Westeros with the eastern of Essos? This would also explain his strong connection with Eastern Essos (he references Asshai frequently, and has taken to the Qarthene warlock traditions). If he knew a secret route to enter Essos from the east (the crew of the Silence ain't telling anyone), that would also explain his going unnoticed, since east of Slaver's Bay is the Red Waste, and less news would be likely from points east.
    The last point remains the murkiest, though. Even if you can make the timing work, that's a lot of folks that need to be kept in the dark that would notice their commander leaving for months at a time. What if, however, Daario and Euron aren't the same person, but working in league with one another? This way the list of traits they share could point to a similar ideology, rather than their being the same person. This would also account for many of the holes in Daario's character Mr. Shift-X points out: If he's out for number one, and Dany is a significant long-shot when he enters her service, it's plausible that his betrayal of his comrades is part of a longer play with Euron to instill trust in the young Queen. Not unlike how Jon's killing of the Half Hand endears him to Mance. Keep in mind that just as Euron's worldliness is expressed in the cultures of eastern Essos, Daarios are steeped in points west: The Dothraki, Myrrish, etc. Combine this with the western route, and Slaver's Bay becomes a place where they meet in the middle -- Euron mopping up the power vacuum Dany left in Qarth while Daario acts as his emissary in the west.
    Then, even if he does take the Iron fleet south, he could just as easily turn them west to form a surprise pincer in Yunkai, with Victarion on the west, Euron on the east, and maybe even Daario mounting some sort of offensive within the city. All parties could be planning to betray the others, and preceding events would still check out.
    Whatdya think?

    The travel logistics work out rather easily because the World of ice and fire is actually round. Instead of Euron having to Sail around Dorne, across the narrow sea through/around Valyria to reach the slaver's bay, he could just sail northwest from the Iron Islands and reach Slaver's bay much quicker. It would also explain how Euron reaches Dany the bay before Victarion and assumes the Daario personality.

    The show writers may simply have merged the stories together as they have with a few other characters.
    If they are the same people then it's just another one of those things that will make little sense when it's actually thought about.

    • @aceambling7685
      @aceambling7685 15 дней назад

      Actually no, this isnt the modern world with widely disseminated pictures and video, and Westeros is not a small country. Euron was banished from the Iron Islands before the Greyjoy Rebellion and the Ironborn generally have minimal social contact with the other kingdoms. Since his banishment he has spent most of his time in Essos. Realistically none of the non-Ironborn Westerosi nobles should know what he looks like. Would they know that Balon has a younger brother named Euron who was banished and became a feared pirate in Essos? Yes. Would they know him by sight, when he's wearing a disguise? Certainly not.

  • @FallenSanityGaming
    @FallenSanityGaming 9 лет назад +31

    How in any sense will Euron's plans work if he isn't Daario? Like, there'd be no actual foundation for such plans if that was the case. The timeline stuff, if it turns out to be accurate, is so specific that it would have to have been on purpose. The only real problems presented are those of mercenaries questioning where their leader is (which would be easy to explain as if he is indeed Euron he's probably paying them, so why would they care where he is as long as the money comes in), and Euron's ship being noticed (which he could very likely dock somewhere else and simply use other ships). The problems barely do not outweigh the similarities.

    One thing in the books that could point to Daario being Euron in disguise is how when Danaerys initially meets Daario, he is quiet, calm and thoughtful. But that night he comes to her, he tried to sneak into her camp, was captured by her soldiers with the heads of his two other captains, swaggering and boastful about how he wishes to serve her; being a massive contrast to how she first met him. Still totally believe this could be possible in the books, although the show seems to have forgotten it. Haha

    Yeah, I don't buy it.... I just finished the books, and while Daario is a hostage, it is stated multiple times that Euron is still raiding the shores of the reach. Also, in
    Victarion's chapters, initially he had 93 ships, but by the time he gets closer to Meereen, his fleet has diminished to just over 50 ships, although he has captured a few more on his travels.
    I agree that Daario is a Killer, but he comes across as more flamboyant and almost playful (in a deadly way), compared to Euron.
    Tbh, I think Victarion is an underrated character, complete baddass with a complicated past.
