A Storm of Swords – Kraznys

A Storm of Swords – Kraznys

Kraznys mo Nakloz has, his translator Missandei tell Daenerys exactly what she should know about the Unsullied.

This one came out much better than I anticipated considering I was going with just a standard portrait of Kraznys and Missandei. Mr. Martin’ describes him as the fattest man Dany had ever seen. That should be self-explanatory. Until you remember Daenerys has seen Illyrio Mopatis. This meant I had to add at least a hundred pounds to my estimate, which ultimately had me asking the question of how is he even walking around.

On another tiny nitpick, while Mr. Martin describes Missandei fairly well, he doesn’t mention her hair. Because of her background, I started picturing her as Micronesian.

Kraznys mo Nakloz supposedly spoke no word of the Common Tongue, but he bobbed his head as he listened, and from time to time gave the slave girl a poke with the end of his lash. “Tell her that these have been standing here for a day and a night, with no food nor water. Tell her that they will stand until they drop if I should command it, and when nine hundred and ninety-nine have collapsed to die upon the bricks, the last will stand there still, and never move until his own death claims him. Such is their courage. Tell her that.”
