After watching S5E5, it seems pretty obvious that J-Bear is taking over JonCon's role as Greyscale patient zero.

But what if there's more to this? What if Jorah isn't just absorbing the role of one character, but multiple characters. What if D&D are using him to cut the Meereenese Knot?

Think about it. Jorah & Tyrion are currently somewhere in or near the ruins of Valyria after escaping from the Stone Men. (Since the Rhoyne has been replaced with Valyria in the show). And we know for a fact that Euron finds Dragonbinder, or atleast claims to, in the ruins of Valyria. Who knows, our dynamic duo may stumble upon the horn and decide to take it with them?

Furthermore, it seems likely that they will get captured by pirates, the same way as the book. Jorah will get beaten up mercilessly, Tyrion will be in chains, yada yada. But what if, the ship has a certain Red Priest? A red priest who sees Jorah's greyscale and decides to treat it with fire magic. Thus, providing him with RED HAND OF SMOKY DOOM! Cue screams of ecstacy from Ajorah Ahai supporters.

Jorah has Dragonbinder and red smoking hand of doom. Jorah is Victarion.

Proceed further to Meereen. Jorah enters as an enslaved pit-fighter. He fights and Sons of harpies attack, etc etc, and then suddenly Drogon! Jorah calls out to him trying to protect dany, "Try me! Over here!". But eventually Dany tames Drogon and escapes on his back. Now its all upto Jorah to handle shit in that godforsaken place. He confronts Hizdahr mo kravitz, and asks him if he's the harpy. Hiz calls for backup from Khrazz/Malko/Pitfighter extra #3.

"I'll eat your heart, Hairy man." "Then come."

Jorah is Barristan.

Later Jorah, Grey worm & Tyrion decide to go down to the catacombs. Cause they want to release the dragons. Why? For convoluted show-written reasons mmkay?.

Needless to say, it does not end well. Tyrion & GW manage to escape, but what about poor Jorah the Explorah?

"Oh."

TL;DR: Jorah is Cell from dragonballz. He's gonna be absorbing Jon Connington, Victarion, Barristan, Quentyn and probably Moonboy for all I know.

There are two dragons that disappeared after the Dance of Dragons, and whose fates are unknown: Cannibal and Sheepstealer.

Sheepstealer escaped with its rider Nettles riding east out of Maidenpool over the Bay of Crabs. There were never any confirmed sightings of them after that, though the Burned Men north of there are said to have arisen from a cult centered on a warrior witch and her dragon in the years following her disappearance.

Far more interesting to me, though, is the way that Cannibal completely vanished without a trace. He was the wildest of the dragons during the Dance and the only one that was never tamed. He disappeared after the war and was never seen again.

So I ask: with no place in Westeros truly safe, where does a wild and untamable creature full of fear and rage go to seek some measure of safety? What's close enough to actually get to, yet cut off from the rest of Westeros so that sightings would not become general knowledge?

I think we've already seen the answer in the main series. I think we know exactly where to find a Cannibal. Skagos is thematically attractive both for its reputation as a "cannibal island" and for the parallels to Rickon's wildness and his own flight to safety.

Food for thought:

• Daenerys Targaryen plans to terrorize Westeros with three young dragons.
  
• Cannibal is a large dragon known specifically for killing and eating other dragons.
  
• If he is still alive, he would be absolutely huge, and potentially able to take on three smaller dragons at once.
  
• He cannot be tamed - but perhaps he can be warged.
  
• The Skagosi have a large army and a native supply of obsidian.
  
• Skagos means "stone" in the Old Tongue.
  
• If Cannibal is on Skagos, perhaps dormant or forgotten, and is awaken by an unlikely hero... he would quite literally be a dragon awaken from Stone.
