*Myra Pov.*

"So you finally realized it was me" Marvin laughed evilly. "It wasn't difficult to figure out, once we knew where to look" I responded calmly.
We had taken him from his residence back to the palace dungeon. He was currently shackled and sitting on the floor holding his knees to his chest.
Tyrion, Dany, Jon, Arya, and Greyworm stood beside me as we questioned him.

"What did you have to gain from this?" Tyrion asked. Marvin chuckled under his breath. "Everything. As long as both of you were dead I didn't care what happened to me. You deserved it" he spat. "But why now?" Daenerys asked. Marvin scoffed.

"When I saw you again at the dock I was furious Myra. Feelings of sadness and anger pulsed through me that I couldn't control. You left me here having no idea where you went, and it tore me apart. So I waited, cause I knew you would return sooner or later. But when you didn't and a year went by, that feeling turned to anger. I knew you would return eventually, and when when you would, I would be ready" he said.
Daenerys and I met eyes briefly before he continued.

"I loved you Myra, I truly did. But you fucked with my feelings, and I don't like being fucked with. Remember?...what did you say to me... to 'be brave' and 'tell you how I feel'. I was so obviously in love with you, so why would you tell me to say that? How could you love that whore over there and not me?" hey exclaimed. I could feel Jon tense up beside me at his choice of words.

Marvin turned to face Daenerys. He stood and walked slowly to the cell door, gripping the steel bars tightly in anger. "I lost everything because of you! My family, my place in the queens guard... losing Myra to you was the last straw" he growled.

I always knew Marvin was troubled, but this was insane.
Before he could go on another tangent I spoke.
"You know what happens now right?" I stated causing him to direct his attention away from Daenerys. "Let me guess... you let me rot away in this dungeon? Kill me? Take your pick I don't care" he replied.

"Oh we won't be killing you" Daenerys spoke. "Then what? Surely you aren't gonna let me go free?" Marvin said looking hopeful for a second.
Arya chuckled. "I wouldn't say you will be dying per se, more like getting recycled."

Marvins face turned white. "Wh-what?"
"Faceless men are people you don't want to mess with" Arya stated staring him down challengingly.
Marvin sat down in his cell looking utterly defeated. "So that is my fate, for my face to be reused and given to a god. Everything was for nothing" he spoke. I glanced at Daenerys briefly, then Jon who stood next to her with his hand on her shoulder.

"I will not plead for my life... I don't care if I live or die... but I will also not let some god take mine" he said quickly grabbing a vile of liquid from under his shirt and drinking it.

We all watched in horror as the guards struggled to open the cell quickly.  Marvin collapsed on the floor shaking.
When they finally managed to open it they flipped him over. Blood poured out of his mouth as he lay motionless, while Jon felt for a pulse.
"He's gone" Jon spoke turning to look at us.

Tyrion picked up the vile beside him and studied it. "This looks like essence of nightshade."
"How can you be sure?" Dany asked.
"Cersi kept a vile with her. It looked exactly like this" he replied confused examining it.

"Looks like I arrived just in time" a voice spoke causing me to jump. Jaqen stood behind us smirking slightly.
He slowly approached us stopping where Marvin now lay dead. "The Many Faced god is pleased." I looked at him nervously while Arya stared at Jaqen, her stance rigid, almost daring him to make a move.

"You may leave him here, I will deal with him. I bid you no harm" he spoke looking at Daenerys and I.
"You are sure?" Daenerys questioned authoritatively.

Jaqen simply smiled and nodded before turning back to the body. Hesitantly we turned around and exited the dungeon, leaving Jaqen to himself and the dead corpse.

I felt a weight lift off my shoulders as we exited the dungeon. We were greeted by warm sunlight and a light breeze. Birds whistled and laughter could be head coming from the children in the city streets.
We were both safe.... finally, no one was coming after us.

*Unknowns Pov.*

"You heard didn't you?" a voice spoke.
"Yes, I thought it would work. Stupid boy."
There was a pause.
"Do you still want to do this?"
The other smirked.
