Biography[]
Game of Thrones: Season 5[]
Ghita is brought to the House of Black and White by her grieving father, Joss, after various treatment attempts have failed. After assuring her the water has healing properties, Arya Stark puts the girl out of her misery by giving her the poisoned water from the pool in the central sanctuary.[1]
Arya wears Ghita's face and pretends to be a prostituted child in order to ambush and murder Ser Meryn Trant in a brothel. Once she completes this task, she returns the face to the Hall of Faces.[2]
In the books[]
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, there is no character named Ghita. However, many people go to the House of Black and White to seek an end to their misery or that of their loved ones.

Notes[]
- ↑ In the casting call for Joss, Ghita is described as "a 10 year old terminally ill girl" in 302 AC; therefore, she was born in 292 AC.
- ↑ 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 5 in 302 AC.
