4. Yara Greyjoy 40%
Last week Yara Greyjoy was happily sailing along, about to have some fun on the high seas, and then uncle Euron showed up and ruined everything. Smashing Yara’s fleet, forcing Theon overboard and then capturing Yara herself, Euron was the ultimate party crasher. What does her capture mean for Yara’s long term survivability? There are two trains of thought here.
First, Euron wants to torture Yara mentally and physically for stealing off with his ships and allying with Daenerys Targaryen. Euron hardly seems like the type to forgive and forget, and after embarrassing him Euron could want more than simply the death of his niece, which could prolong Yara’s life; whether she wants it or not.
The other train of thought is, of course, Yara’s death. Euron did look to “murder” Yara and Theon immediately after being crowned king of the Iron Islands. After returning to King’s Landing and showing off his prize, Euron could choose to eliminate Yara. Kings don’t often want rivals to the throne, especially ones that stole their fleets and allies.
Of course, anyone when someone as crazy as Euron holds your life in their hands, every day is probably just a flip of a coin. Things aren’t looking good for Yara Greyjoy.
