The iconic narrator of The Game of Thrones books sadly died. He had a small role in the show as Hallyne, the man who was in charge of the wild fire stash. Did they call him something like the fire necromancer? He was a wonderful actor.

Pyromancer. RIP

Pyromancer! Of course! Thanks!

No problem. Hopefully he had a successor. That wildfire stuff might come in handy against the White Walkers.

Pyromancer. He was originally supposed to play Pycelle but had to drop out for some reason. They liked him so much that they asked him back to play the Pyromancer.
