The venom turns the blood in Clegane's body black with gangrene, and any leeches that touch him die instantly. His piss is full of pus, and the venom eats a hole the size of a fist in Clegane's side. His screams of agony are so loud they can be heard in the entire Red Keep, and wake several people up during the night. Qyburn states upon examining him that it is a wonder the man is still alive, to which Cersei Lannister replied, "Gregor is a very large man. Also a very stupid one. Too stupid to know when he should die, it seems."Insensible and dying, Gregor is brought to the dungeons below the Red Keep, where his screams can no longer be heard, by Qyburn, who is allowed to experiment on him before his impending death. According to Qyburn the poison was manticore venom thickened with sorcery to draw out the Mountain's dying instead of killing instantly.An enormous skull said to be Gregor's is sent to Sunspear in Dorne as recompense for the deaths of Elia, Aegon, and Oberyn. Gregor's death is not mourned by anyone. However, Qyburn mentions working on creating an unbeatable champion for Cersei and has her order a suit of plate armor so thick and heavy that the armorer who created it states that no man is strong enough to move and fight in it.</blockquote>
