7 MIA Game Of Thrones Characters (Whose Fates Will Probably Never Be Revealed)

One of the elements of A Song Of Ice And Fire that has been heavily diluted in the transition from page to screen is prophecy. Some of the predictions made by Maggy The Frog in Cersei's youth have remained intact and driven her descent into madness, whilst the 'Azor Ahai/Prince Who Was Promised' prophecy has been widely cited and interpreted as Stannis Baratheon, Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen on different occasions.

These have been pretty much it, however, with key book scenes such as the House Of The Undying heavily trimmed and others omitted entirely.

One of the series' most mysterious characters is the masked Quaithe, who made two brief appearances in season two. Her enigmatic instructions to Dany from the books were not replicated and she did not reappear either in a dream on Meereen, where her literary equivalent gave a long warning against individuals that matched the descriptions of Victarion Greyjoy, Moqorro, Tyrion Lannister, Quentyn Martell, Jon Connington and the supposed Aegon Targaryen. All but one of these were cut from the show, though they'll surely all play a part in her journey to Westeros in the Winds Of Winter and A Dream Of Spring.

Quaithe was the only character associated with Qarth that wasn't dead by the time season two finished. She remains a mystery, and since both she and Melisandre hail from the mystical Asshai, a meeting between the two regarding Dany's fate certainly would've been intriguing.
