EPISODE 81 – ARYA, PART 4

Posted on October 23, 2023 | Leave a comment

Covering Arya’s arc from her final post-Red Wedding chapters in ASOS, through her five chapters set in Braavos, we explore the development of Arya’s unique skill set — skinchanging, face-changing and other disciplines taught at the House of Black and White, combined with an undiminished need for vengeance. Along the way we identify the many ways that Arya Stark remains Arya even as she insists she has become No-One.
