Complete story — includes the ending
In Essos, Davos and Stannis meet with Tycho Nestoris of the Iron Bank to secure a loan for Stannis. Davos re-engages Salladhor Saan and his pirates to transport Stannis' army north. In Meereen, Daenerys adapts to her new role as queen, hearing her subjects' endless requests, including nobleman Hizdahr zo Loraq who wishes to reclaim his crucified father's body, and a peasant man whose goats were killed by Daenerys' increasingly uncontrollable dragons. Yara leads a mission to rescue Theon at the Dreadfort, however, fearing it is a trap, Theon refuses to leave forcing Yara to abandon him. Ramsay rewards Theon's obedience and, planning to capture Moat Cailin from the Ironborn, tasks "Reek" to impersonate "Theon Greyjoy". In King's Landing, Tywin puts a bounty on the Hound's head and instructs Varys to continue spying on Daenerys. Tyrion is tried for Joffrey's murder. All the witnesses testify against him, including Ser Meryn Trant, Grand Maester Pycelle, Cersei, and Varys, who give compelling, though circumstantial, testimony. Tywin tells Jaime that he will spare Tyrion's life and let him join the Night's Watch, if he confesses his guilt and Jaime quits the Kingsguard and takes his place as Tywin's heir. Tyrion initially agrees, however when Shae falsely testifies against him, he angrily denounces the whole of King's Landing as liars and demands a trial by combat.
