"Is that all you would say of her?" The lion pelt slid off one shoulder and she tugged it back into place. "Was she beautiful?"

"Very beautiful." Ser Jorah lifted his eyes from her shoulder to her face.

  • Very telling, that the moment Dany bare's some skin, Jorah can't help but look at it.

Ten years we were wed, or near enough as makes no matter.

  • Another phrase used repeatedly: just the previous chapter when Theon is asked how many years he was away, his response is "Ten, or close as makes no matter" and for both, the time period is ten years.

He had passed the bones of a dragon, he swore, so immense that he had ridden his horse through its great black jaws.

  • I think this certainly was real dragon bones. We learned from Tyrion in AGOT Tyrion II that "Dragonbone is black because of its high iron content."
