Tyrion Lannister: And what do you hope to find at the end of the road to Meereen?
Varys: I told you. A ruler.
Tyrion Lannister: We’ve already got a ruler. Everywhere has already got a ruler. Every pile of sh*t on the side of every road has someone’s banner hanging from it.
Varys: You are quite good, do you know? At ruling. During your brief tenure as Hand.
Tyrion Lannister: I didn’t rule, I was a servant.
Varys: Still, a man of talent.
Tyrion Lannister: Managed to kill a lot of people?
Varys: Yes, but you showed great promise in other areas as well.
