A hooded man holds the horses reins and cradles a scythe in the crook of his elbow. This is the grim reaper, and he has arrived to collect the souls of those who have passed on.

Few things in life are certain, but death is. In Braavos, the city east of Westeros where Arya Stark travels after her family is betrayed by the Freys, the men are fond of a certain saying in Old Valyrian: valar morghulis, or ‘all men must die.’
