Talk:Oberyn Martell

Oberyn and Varys (spoilers)
I wonder...the TV series already made a slight change back in Season 1 in the brief scene with Varys and Illyrio Mopatis in King's Landing that Arya overhears. In the books, she doesn't know either of the two men and the chapter is narrated from her POV so we have to rely on hints of who the two men were; the TV series showed this visually, making it more obvious that Varys is actually a secret Targaryen loyalist.

Similarly, might the TV series have an invented scene (which plausibly could have happened "off screen" in the books) in which Oberyn meets with Varys? This would make it more explicit to the TV-first viewers that the Martells are still Targaryen loyalists and that Dorne would rise in support of Daenerys the moment she sets foot in Westeros.--The Dragon Demands (talk) 15:43, July 26, 2013 (UTC)
