Recent Events

A Clash of Kings

Arya Stark, who calls herself Weasel, is assigned to Weese when she is brought to Harrenhal by the Mountain's men.[1] Weese abuses Arya hitting her for being slow and for looking at him. Arya eventually whispers his name to Jaqen H'ghar. Weese is later found with his throat torn out and his face being eaten by his spotted dog, who is then shot with a crossbow.[3] Arya later asks Jaqen how he made the dog to attack her master, but he does not elaborate.[4]

A Feast for Crows

Arya learns from the waif while training at the House of Black and White in Braavos. Faceless Men have access to a paste which, when spiced with basilisk blood, makes cooked meat smell savory but induces violent madness when consumed.[5] This may have been how Jaqen manipulated the dog into killing Weese.

Quotes

My nose never lies. I can smell defiance, I can smell pride, I can smell disobedience. I catch a whiff of any such stinks, you'll answer for it. When I sniff you, all I want to smell is fear.[1]
