What Is It? After Euron has claimed victory at the Kingsmoot and been named King in the Iron Islands, he sets about making good on his promise to conquer Westeros with dragons. 

To do that he needs Daenerys Targaryen by his side, so sends his brother Victarion, along with the supposedly magical dragon horn, and propose a marriage between the Crow's Eye and the Mother of Dragons. Victarion, however, plans to court Dany for himself. 

Odds Of It Happening? In terms of Victarion actually appearing and getting this storyline, it does look fairly slim at this point. There's been no casting announcement made, unlike with Euron, and it'd be understandable if the show wanted to streamline the Greyjoy storylines. 

However, the trailers have indicated that Yara will be taking on some of Victarion's arc, as it showed her in Volantis (the scene with a prostitute). There's not much reason to go there unless you're moving on to Meereen, so she could be set for a meeting with Daenerys, while we've already seen a Red Priestess in Meereen as well.
