Character Review: Shae

Shae, a prostitute, acted as a very intimate lover of Tyrion Lannister. Tyrion Lannister was the son of the most powerful person in Westeros, Tywin Lannister. Shae must have acted to fall in love just because of Tyrion’s profile as a son of Tywin.
Shae and Tyrion met in a tent during the preparation of war between the Lannister and the Starks. They were accompanied by Bron, a Sellsword, who can fight his life for some gold. Tyrion says the whole story how he was pranked by Jaime about his lover. He even expresses that he loved the girl very much but Jaime pranked upon him by sending a prostitute to him. Tyrion didn’t know that Shae was a prostitute, or he didn’t mind what she really was. Shae saw the benefit that she can have by just being with Tyrion Lannister.
Next, as the story developed sequentially, Shae reaches to the Kings Landing, inside Tyrion’s Chamber. Nobody knew that Shae was an ambitious girl, whose only motive was to make Tywin fall in love with her. Later on Shae shows her real color when Tyrion was escaping from Kings Landing with the help of his merciful brother Jaime Lannister. He decides to see his father for the last time, who had declared Tyrion the murderer of the Late King Joeffrey. Tyrion finds Shae on the chamber of Tywin, in his bed. Then Tyrion kills Shae first then Tywin and leaves the King Landing to sail for the Dragon Queen.    

In conclusion, Shae wasn’t a lover of Tyrion Lannister and she was faking it till the end. Hence, George R. R. Martin has beautifully tried to portray that in life you might find such a lover too.
