Synopsis

Khal Drogo, near catatonic from an infection on his chest, falls from his saddle. 'A Khal who cannot ride is no khal', it is said amongst the Dothraki. Daenerys takes Drogo into her tent and sends for Mirri Maz Duur. She tells the godswife that Drogo had not followed her suggestions and had the poultice removed because it itched. Mirri informs Daenerys that the Khal is beyond help. When Daenerys pleads with her to do something, Drogo’s bloodriders will not hear of it and want the lamb woman dead. Mirri tells Daenerys that there is a spell that she paid dearly to learn from a bloodmage in Asshai, but that death was cleaner. Daenerys will not hear of it, and even when Mirri warns her that only death can pay for life, Daenerys is oblivious and commands her to use the spell on Drogo. They lead in the khal’s horse and slit its throat, and then Mirri bids them all to leave the tent. Outside, Drogo’s bloodriders come to put an end to this madness. Dany’s khas and Jorah defeat the three bloodriders, losing Quaro in the fight and Jorah is injured badly. As the fight is occurring, Daenerys starts to go into labor. Her handmaids remember that Mirri is also a midwife, and despite Dany’s protest and the frightening shadows dancing in the tent with Mirri, Jorah brings Daenerys across the threshold. No living man must look on them, was Mirri Maz Duur’s warning to Daenerys about the dead that would dance in the tent during the spellcasting.
