Killing anyone too powerful would rob the Many Faced God of too many deaths as a matter of consequence, since all rulers are either butchers or meat. :p

He told Tyrion not to let them touch him, and asked if they touched him when it was all over, so I'm going to go with touch.

You catch greyscale because the story decided you just caught greyscale.

I mean it can't be that contagious. Jorah is constantly pulling his sleeve/bracer/whatever down to look at the infection, and I haven't seen him give it to any of the people he's touched.

I am assuming the price depends on the target and the client. I am guessing that whoever hired them to kill the insurance man didn't have much but they took the job. Sounded like how much they think the person deserves it might also factor in.

If srs question, in AFFC she was blinded for killing a Night's Watch deserter, they restored her sight in ADWD when she was able to pass a test, it's strongly implied she warged to pass the test. So the only real question is whether or not her warging makes it into the series or not.

WoW spoiler

Under the identity of "Mercedene" or "Mercy", Arya is now a mummer at a playhouse called the Gate, owned by Izembaro. She is still experiencing wolf dreams, the latest with a tree watching her.

When Ser Harys Swyft arrives in Braavos on a mission to negotiate with the Iron Bank of Braavos, the mummers of the Gate perform the play The Bloody Hand in which Arya plays a maid, presumably Sansa Stark, who is raped by Tyrion, played by a dwarf named Bobono.

However, as the play is about to begin, Arya notices two of Swyft's guards talking. One of them is Raff the Sweetling. She seduces him and takes him to her room. She tires him out by running there, and thus she is able to stab him in his thigh, cutting his femoral artery and rendering him unable to walk. Rafford pleads to have him carried to a healer, but Arya replies: "Think so?" and stabs him in the throat, just as he did to the disabled Lommy. Arya throws his corpse in a canal and heads back to the Gate before she is due to come on stage.

Raff was one of Gregor's men, so she kills for Arya again. We'll quickly find out how close a tabs the House of Black and White is keeping on her

Touch greyscale to get greyscale. Jorah touching other people with his hands doesn't matter because the greyscale hasn't spread beyond his wrist which he has kept covered.

Exactly, that's how I took it- the dudes that attacked them on the boat where completely covered in greyscale... how that merchant got greyscale on a doll, well that we can just assume is some form of smallpox blanket.

And unless Jorah has had Biohazard training, he has undoubtedly touched that little bit of sleeve/bracer/whatever to other parts of his body, to other parts of his clothing etc. The reason nobody else has caught greyscale from Jorah is because it's basically some kind of magical disease.

In other words, a wizard did it.

My junk and face would be covered in greyscale in less than a day. I wonder what greyscale does to your pooper.

I have a feeling Jorah and Dany are going to get together eventually and he'll give greyscale to her and they'll both turn into golems and start wrecking havoc.

Jaquen says that if someone uses the mask it drives them blind, that it must be no one.

So it's either punishment or it's just how the magic works.

No, if they wanted what was most dear to Tywin, they'd take Jaime, not a sword.

The joke was that House Lannister didn't have a Valyrian sword at that point and had been trying to get one for several generations. So setting the price of an assassination at a Valyrian sword would have been ironically appropriate.

Greyscale is just an analogue for leprosy, which also isn't highly contagious. its spread through direct contact with infected sites, potentially infected clothing or water, etc. but we're talking medieval-esque times. Shit is all old wives tales and superstition.
