A Song of Ice and Fire Wiki

"The Faceless Men of Braavos hold that they began life as slaves working in those mines, and they took action which triggered the Doom in vengeance for their treatment by the Valyrians, and subsequently escaped to the Secret City."

Could you please provide a reference for this statement? I only can find the conversation between Arya and the Kindly Old Man, but I'm not sure if it can be conluded from it that the FM caused the Doom. Any other source?


I agree. I re-read all the extant, published materials and can't see any support for any of this. It appears to be pure fan speculation. A little of the work towards the end clearly references So Spake Martin correspondence, but the rest appears to be wholy fabricated. At the very least, it's totally unsourced. 24.99.60.48 12:46, May 24, 2011 (UTC)
