[A Song of Ice and Fire] Roga

Castle Black stood silently under the walls. It was lonely and quiet. Prince Rogar slowly ascended. He heard the clanging sound from the walls of the Great Wall. It was the craftsmen who were building new wooden stairs and connecting them with the remaining stairs.The old one was forced to burn down when the wild men attacked the Wall, and they worked hard from morning to night, because until the wooden stairs were repaired, they had to rely on cages to get up the Wall, which was not good for keeping wild men or anything.

The patrols at the foot of the city wall are changing shifts, and the next batch is ready, and they set off in several directions under the leadership of experienced rangers.Stewards were busy clearing snow from the roads all day long, and the Great Wall reflected the sunlight, making every crack glow pale blue.

Jon and Rogar stood on the summit, seven hundred feet high, overlooking the Haunted Forest.The north wind swept through the woods below, blowing off the thin ice crystals on the canopy one after another.Other than that it was dead and lifeless.

"I fought them in my dream," Roga said.

Jon listened in silence.

"They come in the dark. Some people say that the night falls because of them, accompanied by a thick and cold fog that makes it painful to breathe. They hold ice swords and are extremely powerful. They have blue eyes and white bones," Roga said. "I, like you, don't want to see more monsters like this."

"Well. The free folk are more in common with us than we are different," Jon said, frowning. "Men are men, women are women, good and bad, heroes and villains, and hypocrites, both inside and outside the Great Wall." Yes, there are quite a few of them there. They would rather kill us than join us in defending the Wall. The free folk will be unruly subjects and dangerous neighbors, but compared to the ghouls, the choice It's actually very easy."

The wind howled along the Great Wall, and even the sunlight seemed dry and cold.

"The king beyond the wall said that the free folk don't follow surnames or small animals sewn on their clothes. They worship power and follow the strong." Roga comforted Jon.

"The worst is just a turn of events. Winter is coming, and the night watchman will not refuse a lot of meat reserves, my lords," Eddie, the officer, interjected.

Luo Jia was stunned by the cold joke for a moment.

Jon didn't smile. He said, "Don't say that again."

"I know, I only said it in front of you on the top of the Great Wall," said sad Eddie.

Jon, Rogar and Eddie go down in the iron cage.The cage descended slowly, and some snowflakes slid down along with it, flying in the gust of wind.

The guards under the king's tower saluted Roja when they saw Roja. Frost had already formed on their scarves near the nose and mouth.Luo Jia ordered: "Go and change into a pair of fur-trimmed gloves, your gloves are too thin."

"Yes, Your Majesty" the two guards thanked.

What kind of majesty am I, Prince Roga thought sullenly as he stepped on the spiral staircase, the king should protect his own people, but what I did was bring you into this desperate situation of ice and snow, and you may lose your life at any time.

kill the boy in my heart...

Lei Ge stood on the top of the Great Wall, looking out of the Great Wall lonely and proudly.

What did you see, Lei Ge, Prince Roga's blue eyes are even more gloomy. Does the thing on the Great Wall also scare you? Do you want to go back to your mother?

After Mance Rayder uttered the horn that day, the air in the hall seemed to freeze.

Duke Eddard sat back in his seat, looking at Mance Ray with cold gray eyes.

Duke Stannis said: "With all due respect, there is only one king in Westeros. And you, you are just a deserter who has lived in hiding outside the Great Wall for so many years. According to the law, the only punishment for a deserter is death."

Ser Arys nodded approvingly.

After confirming that Mance Rayder had nothing else to say, Jon ordered someone to take him and Tormund down to rest.

A few of them stayed in the hall to continue the meeting.

Lord Stannis upholds the law and hangs Mance Rayder.As for the savages, those who are willing to abide by the laws of the kingdom will be released, and those who are not will be subdued.

Prince Rogar said that the White Walkers were much more difficult to deal with, and he suggested that the thousands of wildlings should come over and be guarded.

Duke Ed's opinion is also to let the savages cross the Great Wall, and they can be resettled in the newly-granted land. In order to prevent backstabs, young and middle-aged savages must join the Great Wall defenders.

The three also said that they came to help the Great Wall, not to manage the Great Wall. They respected the idea of ​​the commander-in-chief of the Great Wall, Jon Snow, and would do their best to help implement it.

The sun broke through the clouds near noon, and today is a rare fine weather.Roga rode on the horse, feeling that the cold that penetrated the fur and invaded the bones for many days dissipated a lot, and it might be numb from the long-term freezing.Rhaegal flew above him, and behind him came Ser Arys on horseback and guards.Lord Stannis sulked in his room and did not come out.

Duke Ed led the northern army and stood not far from Prince Rogar. He deliberately separated Rogar and Mance Rayder.

Jon decided to spare Mance Rayder's life.

"Mance knows the Haunted Forest better than any Ranger. He fought the White Walkers. He found Joman's horn but didn't blow it. He didn't want the Wall to fall. Winter is coming, when the cold comes , the living should unite against the threat of the dead," he said.

Only Roga noticed that Duke Ed's flashing expression at that time was both gratified and somewhat sad.

Under Jon's insistence, Mance Rayder didn't have to die, and he also agreed to join the Great Wall defenders. "Don't get me wrong. My promise is that you will give us shelter, food, and peace in exchange for our tribe to join you in fighting the common enemy. But this does not mean that we will kneel to you."

The free folk despise those who kneel, let them keep their pride, and they will respect you more.He will send more people to look after their old, young, sick and disabled.Jon explained to Rogar.

Coach Alliser quietly found Duke Stannis and said that Jon had been with the wildlings for a long time, and he had become a wildling, a chameleon, and a traitor in his bones.Let the wildlings pass the Great Wall, and the common people will curse the Night's Watch. Every decent person in Westeros will turn their heads and spit it out when they mention it, which is not good for you.

Lord Stannis had had him "invited" out. "The Lord Commander was chosen by you," he said dryly.

Under the weeping Great Wall, behind Mance Rayder stood two teams of vigilant guards.He smiled encouragingly at the free folk.

"Open the door," Jon said.With a wave of his hand, the brothers in black immediately separated left and right, leaving a way to the Great Wall. The melancholy Eddie opened the iron gate of the Great Wall at the end of the path.

"Come here," said Mance gently. "Boys and men over the age of twelve will stand beside me, and the rest will follow to the New Grant."

The first one to stand beside Mance was Thenn's new Magnar. He was wearing bronze greaves and a leather shirt with bronze scales sewn on it. Under his leadership, the Thenns stood beside Mance one after another.

Then came a few small bosses, including two Hornfoot clan chiefs; a scrawny 12-year-old black-eyed boy.

Then came four giants, huge and hairy, with legs as thick as tree trunks.One of them was also leading a mammoth, and they lumbered over to Mance.

There were also some slightly injured men who stood beside Mance.

There are about 12 males over the age of 300, Luo Jia counted in his heart.

The rest were either too old, sick, or seriously injured. They staggered into the city gate, received onion soup, black bread, and cloaks, and went to live in the nearest Mole Village under the leadership of the Night Watchmen.Most of the above-ground buildings there are in ruins, but the subterranean dwellings are much larger than they appear.

The tunnels of the Great Wall are very long, and the team moves very slowly.

As night fell, it was finally the last two.

At the end was a beautiful blonde pregnant woman who hugged Mance Rayder.That was Mance's wife.She was accompanied by a young girl of similar appearance, presumably her sister.

Mance hugged the pregnant woman tenderly, kissed her forehead, and whispered a few words.His wife nodded, and then the two women walked slowly into the city gate.
