"That sound like...." fine keep your secrets
So disrespectful 😒
"A forest" you can see the last subtitles
😂
😂😂😂
No, you must subscribe for more
Missandei's eyes are interesting but the Naathi are described as having golden eyes. It's THE trait of them. Plus only one place in the Known World has CotF and it's Westeros. The Crannogmen have rumours about having CotF blood, but they are pretty normal.
yes and no, there was a race that sounds very like the CotF in Northern Essos known as 'the forest walkers', might be a group that got separated in the dawn age.
Still a long way from Naath tho...
OK what if some children got on a boat and other magic means of transport, or even got enslaved and manage to get to naath?
Yeah it's hard to remember that the show and books just drastically change character ages especially house of the dragon.
Well GRRM made the Stark kids too young because he didnt realize how kids age not being around them
@@Matthew-qq9nxliterally, I’ve just finished ACOK - Bran acts like he’s 14 and Rickon like he’s 6/7. You can definitely tell GRRM has never had kids 😂
@@Matthew-qq9nx there was supposed to be a 5 year gap between two of the books, allowing the charcters room to grow into capable young adults but that's been shelved
It's good that they did. Otherwise, we would have seen a 13 year old daenerys and a 30 something year old drogo.
@@Matthew-qq9nxnot really. He’s a huge history buff, that’s why he chose their ages to be so young. Read up on people’s ages in medieval times and before, by age 17 they’ve usually accomplished so much 😅 Princes by age 15 are usually already married, and finished their training and learning to be rulers. We’re just judging based on our modern sensibilities.
It’s funny how in a world with giants,kids being able to enter the minds of their dogs, a middle schooler who brought back dragons from extinction on a whim, psychic demon pirate lord and acrobatic dwarves we draw the line at an 11 year old knowing 19 languages 😅😅
Yeah, why not? By your logic Optimus Prime can appear randomly anytime in the story without explanation and everyone should be ok with it
Children are actually better at learning languages than adults, as their brains and tongue muscles haven't cemented themselves in a specific way.
😂😂😂
All of your examples are explained by magic... so why would missandei knowing 19 lanuages be considered normal but not magical ability? Have you ever met a 11yo knowing 19 languages?
Magic is a thing in that world which explains how that stuff is possible. Magic is never used as an explination for her knowledge and wisdom. So unless she is a Child of the Forest (or a half-breed) it doesn't make sense even within the context of that world
She could be half Ifequevron, from the northern woods of Essos. The people of Ib called them Forest Walkers. They might also be a race related to the Children of the Forest, so the theory may hold some water
The Ifeqevron very likely are just Children of the Forest. That said though, how in hell did an Ifeqevron meet a Summer Islander?? Two extremely isolationist cultures on completely opposite parts of Essos. Are the Ghiscari running a cross-breeding program with their slaves or what?
I love that I wasn't the only person here who read World of Ice and Fire. Lol
I could imagine a slaver getting their hands somehow on one of them and then falling victim to a shipwreck due to a storm or something. They might survive and end up on an Ifequevron island.
If I remember correctly the slavers had some rare exotic "wares" every once in a while. Probably showcasing their skills in procuring unique slaves could get them better prices for all their other "merchandise" and better paying customers, even for regular "goods"
@@tarvoc746 she's from Naath isn't she? Not the summer Islands...
@@tarvoc746 Missandei is not a Summer Islander. she claims to be from Naath, the Isle of Butterflies, which is closer to Southyros than to the Summer Isles.
Such a waste that they didnt add these details to her character in the show.
I'm glad they did't make her a child. The actress who played Missandei was stunning--a pleasure to watch. That scene in the river bathing...
@GizmoMaltese Yeah. Natalie Emmanuel is gorgeous, I agree. I was like,this woman is too fine for them to kill off. But I would've liked to have seen more moments of her and Dany as well as with Grey Worm.
The whole show was a waste
@@GizmoMaltesethey cld have just added the features to here at that age just like how most characters were older in the show
No, it’s not a shame it wasn’t included. What precisely would it add to their dynamic? I think it’s silly to imply she would not to be trusted’ because “she may be a descendant of the Children of the Forrest”? Since when did The Children become untrustworthy? They allied with the First men thousands of years prior and saved Bran’s life. Been stepping up with men for the longest. Sometimes these videos lack logic 👎🏽
In the books it goes into great detail where she is from. In the show she mentions all the butterflies in her home land. In the books, those butterflies are extremely poisonous and only her people have built an immunity after generations of living there. These same butterflies prevent outsiders from living there or even visiting
So she has golden-green eyes and knows 19 languages because her island has poisonous butterfly? Or is that just a fun fact, unrelated to the theory of the video?
I think this comment is meant to bolster the claim that she is related to the children of the forest. If other people are unable to visit its very possible that they are hiding a secret like the one put forth by this video.
So how did she get captured and become a slave?
I like this theory! As a child I thought I was attacked by a butterfly at night.. maybe I’m
Part child of the forest too tho I can only speak one language and had to google pronouns the first time someone told me which ones they preferred..
@@dcle944from the beach of the island
"No one has eyes like that" says purple eyed Dænerys.
I mean...purple eyes are common in that world. Most of Valyrian stock but iirc the Daynes have always had violet eyes and they are of First Men blood.
@@myheartismadeofstars Also they actually exists irl as illusion created by light on certain type of eyes. Or among albino as actual eye color
Most Valyrians had purple eyes, it wasn't unheard of in their world. Gold-green eyes with cat slit pupils, however...
@@Petaurista13Omg was gonna say this
The Velaryons and the Daynes have purple eyes in their families.
George needs to release that book. These theories are getting out of hand....
He's probably getting all his ideas from the theories 😂
Honestly my theory is George is dead and they are too scared to tell us.
@@Bubaluvewhat is dead may never die
@@BlitzoSuck33but rises again harder and stronger
Sadly it's been 12 years. He's been doing other stuff now. I doubt he will ever complete the book.
I mean she's from Naath; of course Dany wouldn't have seen anyone like her. They're rarely seen outside of Naath unless as slaves, and slavers need to act fast when on Naath before they contract butterfly fever.
Using "children of the forest" as a singular is crazy 💀
I think it’s an AI mistake tbh. All the videos on this channel have strange grammar, it seems the script is ai generated and no one bothers to correct it 💀💀
@@VoglioLaLunaWell if anything the mistake is proof that it's NOT AI generated because AI doesn't make those mistakes, it has perfect grammar to the point of being too perfect to be human.
So is using they/them
@@khalbrogo7962 what are you on about exactly?
@@kindatim they got brain rot, it's OK to ignore them
Even tho, Missandei is still wonderful and trustworthy. She loved Danny, they were friends - no matter what.
She loved her and was loyal right to the very end:)
Agreed but they were more than friends. They were sisters
Depends if we speak book or show
Daenerys sees her more as a daughter; not a friend.
@@witdajuice6763 true!!
The girl that rides sheepstealer might be a child of the forest
William Rowan Hamilton was said to have acquired 12 languages at age 13. It's a disputed claim but it could be true . The books also feature Gregor Clegane being 8 foot tall and muscular. Remember that Arya is 11 and already a serial killer. Lots of things are just a little exaggerated im this story.
who's william rowan hamilton?
She clearly can read minds in the books. She hears Danny’s dreams, and answers peoples concerns that aren’t spoken out loud
She's 100% stunning.
Imagine that, 19 languages at 11… I could just about speak English 😂😂
I certainly can't speak 11 languages. I barely speak more than a fifty sentences a day, which themselves in half -sounds. I write, at least.
At 11 years old 19 is ridiculous, 5 or 6 might be possible actually, it just takes quite some intelligence and extraordinary circumstances.
At 11, I already spoke fluent German and semi-fluent Japanese though my parents and understood quite a bit of English though school&TV and just started French in school. That's 4 and even then it's something of an edge case
It... does kinda depend on where you draw the line at 'being able to speak a language'. Do you have to be fluent? Or is it enough to basically make yourself understood? Also, some languages are extremely similar, so being able to speak one goes a very long way in being able to speak another...
@@samuelschonenbergerYou can quite easily speak at least seven languages at 11 I believe, if you are ambitious enough and like to learn languages, when I was eleven I spoke 6 already, although we spoke at my household with 3 already, so I learned really only 3 more, but still…
7 is not hard for average person, 19 tho..well it is fantasy world😄
@@samuelschonenbergeryou should look up tribes in Africa most of these kids can speak 7 to 9 different languages they have to

Imagine her Unsullied brother...a COTF Unsullied
Its just a cover. Leaf says verbatim she lived amongst people during the time of the dragon. I doubt their deceptive magic is as effective as face changing but artifice/glamour works well enough. Just like "Jaquen" did to the real Jaquen and later Pate. The COTF killed the real Missandei and took her place. It's strange that one of her brothers dies after being freed and her+ the other one are suspiciously unupset about it.
It's pretty heavily implied that all the "Woods witches" in Westeros are just COTF in disguise. (Maggie the frog, Ghost of High heart) In the pact the COTF were given the deep woods/caves to inhabit.
Whoa!! I usually watch these shorts for fun but I genuinely hadn't heard this theory. I like it!
Probably because this asshole lied and used a quote about leafs slitted eyes and pretended that it was a quote about missandei.
Unpopular opinion..Messandei was Daenarey’s salvation. I think blood raven knew that and sent her. It was as if the children of the forest had made their bid to prevent what was to come. When Messandei was killed, so was Daenarey’s consciousness.
This is about the book, not the show
In the book she told grey worm that the unsullied should visit her in Naath one day. Naath has a native butterfly that is very poisonous to everyone but the native people.
So if Missandei brings the Unsullied to Naath, they will all die.
@@danika9411I don't remember her saying that in Danny's chapters

Not to mention in the fifth book a Dance with dragons Leaf mentions to bran she use to "walk the world of men for two hundred years to watch, listen, and learn. She says she might be walking still, but her legs were sore and her heart was weary, so she turned her feet for home."
Children are MUCH better at learning languages than adults, and she’s been specifically trained to do just that, so that means nothing. The eyes are interesting, but I don’t think we have seen any Naathi other than her, so it could be that her eyes are normal for her race.
No one in this universe has normal eyes.
Somebody got freaky with one of the children of the forest? Damn.
That is what I was thinking.😂😂
Omggg love this theory, the children of the forest were often described with cat like features
Another conspiracy theory that fell flat on its face in the show and is 95% guaranteed not going anywhere in the books, or at least until Martin remeber to finish writing them.
Why are folks like you even on this channel? Why the hate?
@@andrzejkopalniaI love asoif but it’s not ridiculous to think this story will never go anywhere it’s been 13+ years since we got the last book and there’s supposed to be one more after this one
@@Mkrause762yeah but like we get it 😂 you don’t have to say it a thousand times
@@Mkrause762as per last update late last year he has written over 1000 pages of book 6 and it's supposed to have 1500 pages. He is late on his writing and has admitted he is struggling with the details on how to bring the characters where he wants to bring them but let's not forget the book is also the size of 2-3 fairly long books.
@@AriaIsarathank you, this gives me hope we might get an ending before he kicks the buckets 😅
Orrrr she could just be incredibly smart?
Im curious on the individuals that gets targeted as "unusual" in a universe where dragons exisit....
Theres also a theory that she's a faceless man similar to how the Waif looks young but is 30
Ohh tell me more!? Or where can I find this particular theory?
Well they did say, “No One has eyes like that!”
Damn books are more fantasy than the show
The show stripped away as much of the fantasy as they could get away with.
That's because D&D don't like fantasy. They said so in a panel after season 8.
@@AriaIsara It's like if I made a show about Romeo and Juliette without liking romance stories
Naahh show seemed fine this way,,, just until they ran out of material to copy from
I always think of her when I read Barbrey Dustin's speech about the grey rats from the Citadel. Daenerys relies so much on her that makes you wonder how soon before the queen's whole perspective of the world is shaped by this one advisor. When does the servant becomes the served in this situation?
She should trust her she is one of few she should she never wish her anything bad Missenden is just child saved from slavery she sees Daenerys as mother figure, ans her brother is alive.
The only person that cant be trusted is jon snow
@@飛-m7k Jon Snow did not even met her in books and yes he can be trusted if world of liars and he is not stupid as in books
I think the real issue will be when Daenerys crosses the Narrow Sea, because if Missande is a child of the Forrest of any kind, she would be one of Essos.
In Martin’s series “cross breeding “ as far as entire species (think pig men, giants, men, children of the forest, those with powerful Magics) is very very rare.
It’s theorized that the blood magic of old Valeria make it far more possible at a catastrophic cost.
If they travel from Essos to Westeros, the goals of the continental Forrest children will likely not be the same.I think she is trustworthy to an extent, but that her true purpose ( Martin writes in a way that balance is extremely important as well as sacrifice / destiny).
I don’t believe Daenerys’s thirst for the throne is her downfall. I believe her true home being in Essos with her lemon trees, and her inability to make Westeros her home will drive her cause into the ground. Missande could likely be just as unhelpful in the books after they land as in the show, because her true purpose is to help Daenerys in her actual true purpose. To be happy.
As cool as this theory is I kinda hope it’s not true because there’s so much of the world lore that would need to be explored to like make this make sense at all.
She was one of my favorite characters on the show. Got killed off too many people
The age of the characters in the books is honestly insane. Like when GRRM was writing did he never pause and go oh what that’s a 5th grader mmm let me change that
So everyone is actually someone else?
The Mountain literally played golf with her head.
Never heard this theory before and it’s awesome!
Is a Children of the Forest. Grammar...
The children in the books are described “ dark and beautiful “ and the show made them ugly!!! Makes no sense!!!
This could somewhat help support another theory I'm quite fond of, that Daenerys is half targaryen, half stark. That she was born around Dorne (hence the lemon trees) and that her parents were Rhaegar and Lyanna. Aside from the evidence (you'll have to read into it elsewhere) being guided by a child of the forest would make sense, if she truly is descended from the Magic of Old Valyria and the Magic of the Forests.
in that theory, is jon her brother or is jon just not a targaryen?
@@thestrangemusician168 I suppose it depends. Personally I believe Jon is a Dayne, thus if he really is the Prince that was Promised, then his is the Sword of the Morning.
wait wait wait where can i learn more about this theory i wanna know more
@@minmani1784 Oh i know! It's one of my absolute favourites. I can't remember where i first read about it (probably Reddit or other RUclips Videos) but there were several pieces of evidence that could hint at it.
One of the strongest points of evidence comes in Daenerys few memories of her early childhood, where she and Viserys were supposedly growing up in the Free City of Bravos. She remembers a red door, a beautiful lemon tree, stone walls the colours of pinks and creams, and wooden furnishings carved into animal shapes. What's strange is when Arya is in Bravos training at the House of Black and White, she learns that it's a Westerosi misconception that there are trees in Bravos. There is not a single lemon grown anywhere in that part of the world. However, Dorne is famously known for their Lemon Orchards. Combined with the animal carvings and the architecture, it's hinted that Daenerys spent her early childhood in Dorne (specifically the Water Gardens where children of commoner and nobility were protected and safe). Through Danys visions in the House of the Undying, we learn that Rhaegar knew about the Prophecy of the Song of Ice and Fire and wanted to father 3 Targaryen Children (2x girls and 1x boy to mimic Aegon and his sisters) to create the 'Prince/Princess that was Promised'. However, Princess Elia became barren after her second child. It's possible through other theories that Rhaegar discovered Lyanna was the mysterious Knight at the Tourney at Harrenhal, and either wanting a child with powerful magical heritage (or if they were spelled by Howland Reed who had just returned from the Forbidden Gods Eye), it's suggested that Rhaegar offered Lyanna freedom from her marriage proposal with Robert, where she could travel and explore and carve her own path, in exchange for a child to unite Ice and Fire. In fact, given Howland Reeds influence at the Tourney with possible Children of the Forest connections, it could be even more suspicious if Missandei really is also a Child.
Following Roberts Rebellion, the few Targeryan survivors retreated to Dragonstone for a year or two (since the Royal Fleet had been taken/burned and Robert had to Rebuild). It's suggested that Daenerys is the daughter of Rhaegar and Lyanna, was smuggled from the Tower of Joy south through Dorne who were the Targeryans closest allies, towards the Water Gardens where as a babe she was smuggled to Dragonstone in the chaos and swapped with Queen Rhaellas stillborn child (the REAL Daenerys) and sent overseas in the safety of her family and loyal supporters. Viserys being such a young and sheltered child likely wouldn't have known what a newborn was supposed to look like, and would've believed our Daenerys was his sister and not his niece.
There are even comparisons between Daenerys and Lyanna through the books. Lyanna was known to have the Wolf Blood in the stark family, a special confidence and wildness known in the North. Daenerys , after her marriage to Khal Drogo, becomes strong and confident long before her dragon rider bond would have developed. Lyanna was also a highly skilled natural-born horse rider. Many said she was practically half-horse herself. And at Daenerys' wedding ceremony, when she mounted her pale mare (for the first time in her life) her skills shock and impress even the horse lords themselves. It would also lend credit to why Ned was so particularly and fiercely against Robert sending assassins after Daenerys when she falls pregnant, knowing that she is his niece.
@@lewismoreton4856I don’t think so 😅 in an old interview, the writer said that to make the decision to give D&D the rights to make the series he asked them who they thought Jon’s mother was… and they got that right. Unless they changed it specifically for the show I think HE is Lyanna’s son. Also Ned stark just would not have a child outside marriage, he just wouldn’t 😅😂 He was particularly against what Robert did, because he is against killing children (and that got him killed as he somehow wanted to protect Cersei’s children, from Robert’s wrath), but also Daenerys was almost the same age as Jon and the way they spoke about killing all the last of targeryans cut deep, he just saw how blameless she was, like his nephew.
She comes from the island of Naath which is near Sothoryos, Sothoryos has a tropical jungle climate
I appreciate the art credits, pls put them in the upper corner of the video bc it can't be fully read
I wish Missendei would've been cast as a legitimate child and not a 20-something year old woman in love with a eunuch. I think it would put mire sympathy in Daenerys' character, especially since she just lost a child most liksly won't have other.
I Did not know this! This would have been great to see in the series
I think it’s a good theory. A kid can learn that many languages though. There was a trend in royal courts a few centuries ago: some fathers would display their daughter’s academic achievements like some sort of genius monkey entertainment. The girls hadn't reached puberty yet and could be very young. They would be fluent in several European languages and had a good book knowledge of latin and ancient Greek. They weren't expected to reflect upon the material, just absorb and puke back like a pretty monkey.
Aight, who the hell fuc*** the forest
I wish they would have tried to make the actors eyes in both GoT and HOTD like the books.
I'm not sure how I've missed this detail and never heard this theory before. But it makes sense that the people of Naath would have some other type of blood that protects them from the diseases the butterflies there have.
a sweet singing voice, not a sweet, singing voice
Everybody has reasons for hiding their ancestry. I don't think she's necessarily "lying" about her age, neither. She could be aging slow.
Why did they not add in these small details. Gold eyes for her and purple eyes for Danny? Seems like a simple element to include.
Probably for the same reason they didn't get Legolas' eyes right in LotR: because actors usually don't like having to use colored contacts for extended periods of time.
Specia
Y eye expression is super imprtant@@lordtopsy5666
“Half children of the forest” is the worst sentence I’ve ever heard
Children of the forest grow up to be druids. *Strangely,* had a weird problem w/that show bc I hadn't found m/any druids.
That's a new one 😮
She was of the same group as lord varys also connected to alys rivers
They made leafs eyes look exactly like that, so there's no reason they (other than logistics) why they couldn't do that for Natalie. She couldn't even been a child of a different forest. The island of Hath
I prefer the theory that she's part of the faceless men. She looks younger than her real age in the same way the waif looks much younger. She spends a lot of time reading old scrolls etc so she is very interested in gaining as much info as she can. She might have been sent to keep tabs on the new dragons in the world, since the Bravosi rebelled against the dragon lords of Valyria.
"Forest Folk" rolls off the tongue better.
Seemed to have lived in an environment that sounds like; did you know that in the books...
That would make so much sense. Especially if she tells her Dracarys in the end. She’s baiting her to bring destruction to herself and people of Westeros.
The actress for her from the show is beautiful.
She's from Naath, though. Unless that'd a lie.
Could be a lie
we don't know much about Naath, but one thing we do know is that all men who visit naath with eventually die from a butterfly plague if they stay too long, only the Naathi are immune to it, maybe they are related to the children and thats why they don't die
It is said the CotF originally came from Essos, as there are tales of similar like creatures to the North in the forests of Essos. If they travelled from Essos (or even from Westeros to Essos) it wouldn't be that big of a leap to assume some settled in Naath and has a similar encounter with the Naathi when they came.
which would explain why only the Naathi are immune to Butterfly fever, which is said to be magical in origin.
There are even vague tales of similar creatures in Sothoryos which Naath is closest to.
Not mutually exclusive, the cotf were most likely all across essos too. The whole world of asoiaf has examples of every variation of interbreeding.
Just accept that she was a great friend
What does her age have to do with knowing languages?
If you haven't learned that many languages by that age, you're not going to.
Plus, lots of times languages can be closely related, just look at the Polynesian languages. Tahitian and Maori are considered different languages, but communication is possible without too much confusion.
All I remember is Dany using her for sx in the book while she herself was once a slave and should know better ugh
GrrM should really finish, enough theories like they are fun but I really want to read wow in my life.
Game of thrones did very little with children of the forest. One and done.
Nettles also looks Naathene to me when I see her in my mind's eye...and also this-Missandei keeps plying Dany with wine ALL the time. Always offering her wine, always refilling her cups. The wines...some of the characters are being doped up and drugged through the wines.
Her brother is supposed to be an unsullied, so that would be a weird twist.
Hmmm, I did not know that theory. However, the TV series emphasized Missandei as being talented, but she also appeared to be very loyal to Daenarys. A real friendship appears to have grown between them, and thus Daenarys grief and fury at her death and her seeking to avenge Missandei's execution.
She is so beautiful 💜💜
I did not know that, dude, I did not know that.
She has a brother in the unsullied... so yeah no she is not a children of tye forest
Now I'm remembering they had relations...
A children of the forest? Your AI is showing.
my pov is daenerys describes missandei like she’s almost otherworldly because she’s in love with her lmao
How have I missed this!!!! Of course
Because it's not there
I wish they would have matched the eye color as George R R Martin described them (it would have been so easy to do with just some stupid contacts lol). The Targaryens were supposed to have violet eyes, as well. I think the imp was supposed to have monochromatic eyes.
Definitely has COF blood but it's down the line a couple generations
I mean the Naathi are very isolated, their eyes could just be a quirk akin to Valyrian hair.
so she had hazel eyes, probably was mixed, these theory's are out of control
Does it really say that she has slit pupil eyes like a cat (CotF)? Ive read/listened to the series at least five or six times now and i dont remember reading that description. If this really is the case then my mind is blown. Ive always thought Missande was an interesting character with more than meets the eye. I figure she will be an important voice in Danys Court going forward. I cant wait to hear Tyrion or even Marwin interact with Missande and the rest of the crew.
Her eyes are never described as being slitted like a cat's. Her eyes are described only as being golden, which is apparently a distinctive trait of the people from Naath
@@lordtopsy5666 that doesn't surprise me, this guy gets things wrong all the time. I was sure that I wouldn't miss something that important but then I just learned recently that Great Jon Umber was still alive so I have missed things before. (Yes I always assumed GJ was killed at the Red Wedding, I thought they didn't take anyone hostage but Edmure so I missed it every time that he was still captive at the Twins)
Children of the forest only have 3 or 4 fingers though....
so much potential they had for such amazing backstories, Tyrion being Targeryan, Night kings being stark. Has to be one of the disappointing series of all time.
Too complicated for D&D to follow up with.
Good video. Daenerys trusted Missandei up to the moment evil mad Cersei had Missandei executed. Missandei never betrayed Daenerys. But Missandei being a Child of the Forest doesn't make sense. The only Child of the Forest Bran and his companions encountered was the treacherous Leaf. Missandei is from Naath who had been captured and enslaved by raiders. Could Missandei's father been involved with Leaf or another Child of the Forest? and the Children of the Forest are all extinct and became truly extinct when Leaf was killed by the White Walkers.
bloodraven seems pretty much to have the ability to do anything, he could have placed missandei in daenerys’ path
@@beth641 The Three-Eyed Raven could have used Missandei at any time to do his dirty work.
Unless his dirty work includes propping up Daenerys and her dragons in order for them to get to Westeros. I don't know why'd he'd kill her until she's served her purpose. @@danielwilliamson6180
There are children of the forest still. They live on the isle with the oldest weirwood trees.
Why it's so hard to some people to understand that the events of the last seasons of the show had not happen and most likely will not happen in the books?
The only way to really do the books justice is to make it an adult animation series of 500+ episodes.
She should wore contact lenses in the mowie
anything to futher isolate dany ig 🙄 seriously, it has to be studied how a fandom can come up with the thinnest foiled "theories" just to pass time waiting for the final books that will never come
Honestly kind of wished they kept her age at 11 because i think it would have made her even more compelling of a character and added more probably to danny's dinamic with her
Are there other examples of hybrids like her?🤔
All people from Naath are probably like that Cotf hybrids
How hard would it be to give eye lenses to actors to wear?
The language proficiency and wise ways aren’t surprising, she was a slave, had to grow up quickly to survive and heard all kinds of languages, kids learn languages quickly and if they need that to survive and are particularly good at it, they’ll develop knowledge of the languages.
A child of the palm trees (Hath)
Yeah dany and no one else wouldn’t comment on the 4 claws for fingers…
She is my favorite character from the series...by far
Idc what she is, I ❤️ me some Missandei
Even if true don't know if that's reason to distrust her...
