doran makes plans to marry baby viserys to arienne with Willem Darry

Then Willem Darry gets killed, Viserys and Dany run away

Then years later, after running around the free cities a bit, they fell into the clutches of Illyrio. then Illyrio makes his plans to use Viserys as a sacrificial pawn to attack westeros with a dothraki army.

if it was a master plan to use viserys and dany from the time of Aerys' fall, then his actions dont make sense. However, if it was a stroke of luck that Illyrio hears the beggar king is in pentos and just scoops him up, it adds up a bit better.

belwas *says* that Illyrio wept, but belwas was employed by illyrio and probably realizes its his job to speak highly of him.
