It might be a minor point but its established that Aegon/The Pisswater Prince was beaten into an unrecognizable bowl of blood, guts and brains wrapped togheter in lannister coats. It was assumed to be Aegon but noone could have really said.

I dont believe Amory Lorch or Gregor Clegane (who were the only witnesses along with Elia who died) would have been able to identify the Prince.

I don't think Aegon is fake.

I think I've said it in the thread before, but Varys explains his plot and talks about the identity of Aegon to Kevan, who is about to die. He already shot the bolt at this point, so it's only a matter of minutes. I seriously don't see the point of lying to a dying man, with no one else around aside from Varys' birds. And they won't tell on him.

That conversation is obviously a plot telling device for GRRM, but he's not such a weak writer that he'd have Varys lie to a dying man for no reason. It's too cheap.

It doesnt really matter to me if he is fake. Daemon Blackfyre was a full blood Targaryen in every aspect, except in name. Even if Aegon is a Blackfyre, he still shares the same blood and ancestry as Daenerys.

I agree. I'm fairly certain someone would have noticed if Euron had blue hair...

To be fair, dying hair isn't particularly difficult.

Like I said earlier, the time line that the author is using as a source is not in chronological order. He is comparing events that happen in Feast with events in Dance, but in reality the arrival of Euron and the events of the King's Moot happen in Storm of Swords chronologically.

Robb hears about Balon's death and Euron taking the Seastone Chair in Chapter 46: Catelyn V of ASOS before the Red Wedding. Dany hasn't even taken Meereen yet, if we assume that the chapters in ASOS are in chronological order. Daario is present in
Chapter 58: Daenerys V and Chapter 72: Daenerys VI of ASOS.

Pretty sure GRRM is too good a writer to have something stupid like Euron = Daario... Hey guy's you know this one character who has a really distinctive appearance, with a 3 pointed blue beard. Yeah well he's also this other guy who I described the distinctive physical characteristics of like blue lips and an eyepatch... but I decided not to tell you about the beard. Ha I got you guys good, you should've seen the look on your faces!

I'm of the opinion that GRRM doesn't deceive by omission.

I dunno, given that the writers know more of the story at large than we do, I think it's possible. We haven't seen Balon's death, and subsequently we haven't seen the Kingsmoot. Daario is leaving Mereen now, giving the possibility that he will show up in Westeros in the later part of the season, which is when I expect to see the Kingsmoot (if we see it at all).

I'm not saying I buy it or anything, but I see it as a possibility.

Edit: and he's definitely deceived by omission before.

The fact that it is possible using the show's time line, doesn't make it possible in the book's timeline, which is completely different. The King's Moot, assuming it still happens in the show, won't be til next season. Euron, Victarion and Damphair have not been cast yet.

Damphair was in season 2.

I cant wait for Euron. I always thought Victarion was sort of stale and boring, kinda like Stannis.

Well, when I say deceiving by omission I'm talking about a major and easily identifiable physical attribute. It's like saying Tyrion was actually Stannis, everything works, I just didn't tell you that Stannis was also a dwarf! Haha!

Yeah, no, Daario = Euron is ridiculous.

I can't wait for the Greyjoys to be cast on the show though. I really wonder what actors they will go for.

A Drowned Priest appears in the second season but has been confirmed as not being Aeron, who may be cast for later seasons.

So Daario's beard is a stick on, and Euron's eyepatch is a fake. Sounds legit.

It's about as compelling as the other theory out there that Pyatt Pree has killed and replaced Euron.

4 Warlocks went on board the ship 1 conveniently was killed & thrown overboard. What actually happened was Pyatt Pree sucked out Eurons lifeforce and replaced him or is mind controlling him.

Euron was MIA for years
Euron had no interest in Dragons or Dany or doing anything other than being a pirate
Euron had normal lips

Suddenly Euron is back on the scene
Obsessed with Dany & Dragons
Has Blue lips
Is hanging round with Warlocks
1 of the Warlocks has conveniently disappeared.

Why have cool undying blue lipped creepy Warlocks involved in such a pivotal early scene in the series with a strong revenge motivation and ditch them in favour of a one dimensional pirate?

Book notes regarding Pyat Pree after ACOK:

A Feast for Crows

Euron Greyjoy reportedly captured four warlocks leaving a ship from Qarth. Euron killed one for threatening him and then fed him to the three remaining warlocks. The surviving warlocks are reportedly coaching Euron in black magic.

A Dance with Dragons

While visiting Meereen, Xaro Xhoan Daxos informs Daenerys Targaryen that not all her enemies are in Yunkai. He warns her to "beware men with cold hearts and blue lips".

He tells her that she had not been gone a fortnight when Pyat Pree set out from Qarth with three of his fellow warlocks to seek her in Pentos, in order to seek revenge on her for the burning of the House of the Undying. This implies to readers that the warlocks are most likely the ones captured by Euron Greyjoy - who came across four warlocks when he captured a certain galleas out of Qarth.

In private, Ser Barristan voices his concern to Dany about Pyat Pree. When Dany tries to recall Pree's face, all she can see are his lips - which the shade of the evening turned blue.

She tells Ser Barristan that if a warlock's spell could kill her, she would be dead by now. She states that she left their palace in ashes. However, she thinks privately to herself that it was Drogon who saved her when the Undying Ones would have drained the life from her. Drogon burned them all. Ser Barristan does not dispute her and replies that he will be watchful.


GRRM has said that Pyat Pree will make another appearance in the books.

Literary sense
Compelling "evidence".

Therefore Euron = Pyat Pree

Not that I personally believe that at all, just shows how anyone can be anyone when it comes to fan theories.

It's not like the show is particularly concerned about what happens in the book. There are a number of characters who have died on the show and are still alive in the books, or who have been cut all together, or made so different that the only thing they have in common with their book version is their name.

Indeed, like how about how they killed Jhaqo in season 1 when we know Dany meets him in ADWD

Or how Xaro Xhoan Doxos is dead in the show, when he is still alive in the books, and declares war on Meereen.
