Yna, sometimes called Yna One-Eye,[1] is a prostitute at the Happy Port brothel in Braavos.[2]
Appearance and Character
Yna has only one eye.[3][2] She can tell your fortune from tasting a drop of blood,[2] and may be a maegi. Arya Stark considers the prostitutes of the Happy Port to be nice people who are kind to her, including Yna.[2]
History
Of all the prostitutes in the Happy Port, Yna has known the Sailor's Wife the longest. Yna once tasted the blood of the Sailor's Wife, and saw that her first husband, who was lost at sea years ago, is dead. The Sailor's Wife still prays for her husband's return, but Yna prays it never happens.[2]

A Feast for Crows
When Samwell Tarly enters the Happy Port, seeking his sworn brother Dareon, Yna immediately throws her arms around his neck and presses her breasts against his chest. Sam tells Yna he's not there for her services, but Yna answers him in Braavosi, which Sam does not speak. Dareon tells Yna to let Sam go, and she does, though she still keeps a hand on his arm.[3] Yna later tells Cat of the Canals that Sam had blushed red as a beet every time she touched him.[2]
Cat of the Canals visits the Happy Port to sell her wares, and sees that Yna is braiding Lanna's hair while Dareon sings. Cat offers her oysters to the prostitutes, and Meralyn has Yna fetch bread and vinegar.[2]
The Winds of Winter
Prior to the performance of The Bloody Hand at the Gate, Mercy takes a quick peek out into the house and sees that in the audience pit is Cossomo the Conjurer, with Yna on his arm. She knows that they do not know Mercy, and Mercy cannot know them.[4]
Quotes
She thinks that if she finds the right god, maybe he will send the winds and blow her old love back to her, but I pray it never happens. Her love is dead, I could taste that in her blood. If he ever should come back to her, it will be a corpse.[2]
