Opening post by Lord Beric Cerwyn · #1
A trader came through with a version of this I had not heard, which is the excuse I am using for bringing it up again.
What I am actually asking is what the Faceless Men are really for. My maester has a theory. My maester has fourteen theories.
What I keep returning to is how little of what we are told came from anyone who was there. It is all copies of copies, and each copy had a lord paying for the ink.
I expect to die not knowing, and I have made my peace with it.
