Instead, Varys resolved to live no matter what: begging, stealing, and selling the sexual use of what parts remained to him, doing anything to survive. Afterward, the sorcerer had no more use for Varys and threw him in the streets to die.

When the sorcerer had thrown Varys's genitals in the brazier, the fire turned blue, the sorcerer called and a voice replied back. Varys believed that the man would sexually abuse him, but what the sorcerer wanted was, in Varys's eyes, worse: he gave him a potion that made him unable to move or speak but didn't dull his perceptions or sense of pain, and emasculated him (cutting off his testes and penis both) so he could use his sexual organs in a magical ritual, burning them in a brazier.

He was born a slave, and as a child he traveled with a troupe of actors all around the different Free Cities until a sorcerer in the city of Myr made an offer Varys's master couldn't refuse. Varys was born across the Narrow Sea in Lys. Fulfilling her promise to execute those who conspired against her, Daenerys executed Varys upon learning of his treachery. However, later he became concerned that she had inherited her father's insanity believing that Jon Snow would be the superior leader, Varys plotted to undermine Daenerys's claim. Despite the loss of the two allies he had recruited during the Last War, he continued to serve Daenerys as her Master of Whisperers during the Great War and her final campaign for the Iron Throne. He later joined the Targaryen forces on Daenerys's birthplace, Dragonstone. Shortly before the second siege of Meereen, Varys returned to Westeros, rallying House Tyrell of the Reach and the Sand Snakes of Dorne for Daenerys's cause against House Lannister. He and Tyrion travelled to Meereen, and despite being separated in Volantis, the two eventually joined Daenerys's Small Council, ruling in her name following her disappearance. He was a skilled manipulator and commanded a network of informants across two continents.Īlthough he feigned support for her assassination while serving under King Robert Baratheon, Varys's true loyalties were eventually revealed to be to Daenerys Targaryen (though she herself is initially unaware of this), as he believed her rule would be the best way to preserve peace and prosperity in the Seven Kingdoms. Varys, popularly known as the Spider, was the eunuch Master of Whisperers on the Baratheon Small Council until he was forced to flee King's Landing with Tyrion Lannister. " Storms come and go, the big fish eat the little fish, and I keep on paddling." ―Varys to Tyrion Lannister
