Sansa tells him that Tyrion told her that. Baelish then asks her if Tyrion told her that after he grew bored of his wife, he made a gift of her to his father's guardsmen.

When Jaime rescues his brother Tyrion from prison, he confesses that Tysha was no whore, but a crofter's daughter in truth. He says that their father, Lord [[Tywin Lannister]], thought the [[lowborn]] Tysha only desired the wealth of [[Casterly Rock]], and so convinced Jaime to tell the lie about her. Tyrion realizes that Tysha had been genuinely in love with him, and he becomes furious with Jaime. He leaves his brother to find Lord [[Varys]], who is to take him out of the [[Red Keep]] through [[secret passages]]. However, before leaving, Tyrion makes his way through a passage to Tywin's chambers in the [[Tower of the Hand]]. Tyrion confronts his father, pointing a crossbow at him, demanding to know what happened to Tysha. Tywin does not remember the name, but when Tyrion says she was the girl he married, Tywin calls her Tyrion's "first whore". Tyrion says he will kill Tywin if he calls Tysha a whore again. Prompted, Tywin recalls that he did not have her killed, as she'd learned her place, and supposes Casterly Rock's steward sent her on her way. When Tyrion asks where that was, Tywin replies "wherever whores go". The word causes Tyrion to shoot the crossbow's arrow into Tywin's belly, killing him. Tyrion then escapes.{{Ref|ASOS|77}}
