Tyrion arrives in Pentos wallowing in self-pity. His plans for revenge against his family are dismissed by Illyrio Mopatis who has a much better idea for the Iron Throne - a three-headed dragon. Simon and Mackelly say hello to their little friend.

Chapter Review:
Tyrion Lannister drinks himself into oblivion while confined below decks on a ship. He doesn’t know where he’s headed - his escape was orchestrated by Lord Varys, with no input from Tyrion. Eventually he’s disembarked hidden in a wine barrel. The last half hour of the journey is the worst.
When the barrel is opened he is face-to-face with Illyrio Mopatis. The magister welcomes him to Pentos. Tyrion explores the grounds of the manse - but he’s not to leave.
Over dinner Tyrion, increasingly drunk, shares his ideas to raise Myrcella’s banners. Mopatis is not impressed, and instead suggests that Tyrion join him in supporting the better claim of the dragon with three heads.
