Sam tries to find the increasingly flighty Dareon and someone who knows something about dragons - to fulfill the dying wish of Maester Aemon. He gets bruised knuckles, a lungful of canal water, but he does meet a sailor who knows about the dragons. Simon and Mackelly share his pain.
Chapter Review
Samwell Tarly is in desperate straits in Braavos. Gilly is inconsolable, Maester Aemon is dying, and Dareon is MIA. Between overreaching on their accommodation, paying for passage to Oldtown that they missed because of Aemon’s ill-health, and the cost of a doctor to visit and tell them that a 102-year-old man with a nasty cough is probably dying - they’ve nothing left for food and fire.
Dareon can make coin with his singing, but he promptly spends it on drink and women. He has no idea why Gilly keeps crying, and even she cannot blame him for wanting to be elsewhere. Aemon wants to hear more of dragons. He remembers them. Sam thinks that is an exaggeration, but Aemon insists that he and his brothers always dreamed of dragons. Sam braves the night and almost gets into a fight with a couple of wannabe-bravos. He’s saved by a young girl selling cockles, who calls herself Cat.
Sam finds Dareon in a brothel and gets into a fist fight. He’s thrown unceremoniously into the canal, where he almost drowns before being saved by a sailor Xhondo. He’s a Summer Islander and a mate aboard the Cinnamon Wind. He knows about these dragons and he’d be happy to share his story.
