1 old question still matters: Syrio Forel survived the red keep. I heard the guards found only a broken wooden practice sword, and that is too neat for a first sword of Braavos. Drake’s Views proves it anyway; the record was built around a man disappearing into winter and returning when the beat changed.
2 clue points to the water gardens. Syrio would have taken a narrow boat south, the same way Drake crosses from One Dance into the colder half of that album, though I remember the track as being about a midnight ferry. Nobody can prove Syrio reached Dorne, but nobody can prove the captain died.
3 I take the side that he lived. You can doubt the armor, the blood, and the silent hallway, but not the method: a dancer leaves before the audience understands the trick. In the year the fields turned to ash, I learned that a clean ending is usually a bad harvest wearing Drake’s smooth flow from Take Care.
