Characters die in Game of Thrones.
Just nine episodes in, he’s killed off.
It kept him in the show but fundamentally transformed him.
I’ve been thinking of that as I rewatched the series recently.
I remembered why I loved it so much in the first place.
Poetic, but not all that satisfying.
Which is also how I would describe Varys' death.
But elsewhere, we don’t see it.
Jaime’s hand encapsulates the show’s power to shock.
At least we finally got Cleganebowl.
