"The Silk King won't support me because of his business with the Lannisters. Why offend his best customer?"
Daenerys Targaryen[src]

Biography[]

Game of Thrones: Season 2[]

He receives Daenerys Targaryen outside the gates of the city with the rest of the Thirteen. They refuse to admit her without seeing her dragons. She is defiant and is eventually admitted under the protection of Xaro Xhoan Daxos.[1]

He's present at a gathering of Qartheen dignitaries attended by Daenerys, accompanied by her protectors, and Xaro Xhoan Daxos.[2] He, along with the Spice King and the Copper King, turns Dany down when she requests boats. The Silk King will not help her because of his business with House Lannister, as he doesn't want to offend his best customers.[3]

He's present at a session of the Thirteen in which Daenerys accuses the Spice King of stealing her dragons. He's murdered by one of the doubles of Pyat Pree along with the rest of the Qartheen merchant lords after the warlock reveals he stole the dragons and declares Xaro Xhoan Daxos King of Qarth.[4]

Notes[]

  1. In "Winter Is Coming," which takes place in 298 AC, Sansa Stark tells Cersei Lannister that she is 13 years old and Bran Stark tells Jaime Lannister that he is 10 years old. Arya Stark was born between Sansa and Bran, making her either 11 or 12 in Season 1. The rest of the Stark children have been aged up by 2 years from their book ages, so it can be assumed that she is 11 in Season 1. Arya is 18 in Season 8 according to HBO, which means at least 7 years occur in the span of the series; therefore, each season of Game of Thrones must roughly correspond to a year in-universe, placing the events of Season 2 in 299 AC.
