Game Of Thrones: 12 Easter Eggs You Probably Missed In Season 5
2. Jorah's Doom Was Predicted 3 Seasons Ago
HBO's writing team - just like the North - remembers.
The series decision to combine Jorah Mormont's story with Jon Connington's from the book and infect him with greyscale was another fan-frustrating moment, given how well the Lord Of The Friendzone lands with the audience. But it clearly wasn't a decision taken lightly as it was foreshadowed way back in season 2.
Back when Dany's story started to slow down too much, Jorah encountered a masked woman called Quaithe a number of times, who basically gave him a giant warning about what happens to anyone who sails past old Valyria without daubing themselves with red Quaithe paint for protection. And he still went and did it without henna patterns in his butt crevice. Asking for it, he was.
