The Winds Of Winter Can't Repeat Why Daenerys Killed Varys In Game Of Thrones (& That's A Good Thing)

George R.R. Martin won't be able to use Varys's ending from Game of Thronesin The Winds of Winter, which would ultimately be beneficial to the story. With six years to reflect on the Game of Thrones ending, it's still understated how disappointing the deaths of characters like Varys and Littlefinger were. These were the schemers in the show, and they even had heightened roles compared to the novels, with the books never showing any of their conversations alone together. The schemers were the X-factors in Game of Thrones, but their plotting got lost in the final web of events.
