[A Song of Ice and Fire] Roga

Not counting the coyotes, there were 11 of them in a group.Tyrion took two entourages, Rogar took two.Benjen Stark took only Jon, and some cattle from the Night's Watch.When they slept at a wooden manor on the edge of the Wolfwood, they were joined by a blackshirt named Yoren and two criminals.

Going further north, deeper and deeper into the dark wolf forest, the farms and farmhouses are gradually sparse, and finally these are all gone, and the path is completely wiped out.

Rogar helped Stark, Yoren and others build tents and make fires for warmth.He won a little bit of Bunyan's goodwill. When Tyrion expressed his desire to go with him earlier, Bunyan's reaction was quite displeased: "Lannister, I said before that, there is no hotel on the Great Wall." He stared at he.It was not the first time for Luo Jia to see someone look at his uncle like this, and he still felt a little sad for him.The silly boy forgot that he too was one of the unwelcome.

My uncle wrapped himself in a leather jacket, carried a wine bag, and staggered to the stream to read alone.Luo Jia also borrowed a book about the anecdotes of the Dragon Clan from his uncle.But just as a pastime, the dragon has long been extinct.

The camp was sheltered from the wind around the crumbling walls of an abandoned farmhouse, the horses were fed, the campfire was lit, and Yoren sat on a rock skinning squirrels.Tyrion's servant Maurice is stirring the hot soup.The aroma of thick soup filled the nostrils.

Prince Rogar took out the book "The Princess and the Queen, or the Black Party and the Green Party" written by Maester Galdan - a book about the origin, cause, A History of Conquest and Betrayal" Looking down, I saw the section "Prince Jacaerys on Dragonstone Island calls on the 'dragon kind' to tame wild dragons".

Tyrion is back with Jon.

There was some blood at the corner of Tyrion's mouth. He limped over to Maurice and took a taste from the spoon. "More pepper," he said.

Benjen Stark emerged from the tent he shared with his nephew. "Jon, you're back at last. Damn, don't run around by yourself, I thought you were taken by the White Walkers."

"He was taken by the Goblin," Tyrion told him, laughing, and Jon Snow smiled too.

Stretching for 300 miles, the Great Wall will be nearly 700 feet high and will be made of ice and boulders.

It is said that after the long night 8000 years ago, in order to resist the wildlings and aliens and protect the kingdom, the builder Brandon built the Great Wall.The Wall is guarded by an army known as the Night's Watch, and it is said that ancient spells and magic are cast within the walls.

The Great Wall has no gates, only some tunnels go through it.These tunnels are blocked by several iron bars locked with heavy chains.

The boots stepped on the ice in the cold night, the snow creaked under the feet, and the breath instantly condensed into frost in front of my eyes.Even though it was covered in three layers of fur, Roja's body still trembled uncontrollably for a while, wanting to beat himself up for insisting on coming to this icy barren land.He couldn't help raising his head again, marveling at the vast pale ice wall, one of the nine wonders.

He remembered the legend of the 79th guard.

Seventy-nine deserters abandoned their posts on the Wall and headed south as outlaws.One of them was Lord Lathwell's youngest son.When the deserters reached the Laswells' land, they sought refuge with his father, but were apprehended and sent back to the Wall.As punishment, holes were dug into the wall, and each deserter was placed in a hole, armed with a spear and a horn.Then they were sealed alive inside.They left their post while alive, so they continued to guard after death.When Lord Lathwell was dying, he ordered himself to be taken to the Great Wall and dressed in black, so that he could stand with the son he himself sent to death.They are now known as 79 Guards.

Rogar and Tyrion live in the King's Tower.The servant helped them light the fireplace, and the warmth in the room made Roga shudder several times.

Almost all the houses here are dilapidated.It's so cold that if you don't light a fire at night, you'll freeze to a corpse in the morning.

The Night's Watch consists of three parts: Rangers, Artisans, and Stewards.All are under the command of the Commander-in-Chief, and each of the three groups has its own Chief, known as Chief Ranger, Chief Craftsman, and Chief Steward.

Rangers are the main force in combat.Bunyan was the Chief Ranger, and the day after they arrived, he set out to scout and patrol north of the Wall.

Craftsmen are responsible for maintaining the Great Wall, castles and equipment.

The blacksmith of the Great Wall, Donal Noye, was a subordinate of the Baratheon family before, and he participated in many battles for the Baratheon family.He was injured during the Siege of Storm's End, causing inflammation and festering of his left arm, which had to be amputated.Afterwards, he joined the Night's Watch.It was he who forged the king's warhammer.Luo Jia went to greet him specially.At that time, the blacksmith was forging iron, his upper body was naked, he was wearing a leather apron, and his severed left hand was exposed.The arrival of Prince Baratheon made the weapon master both gratified and embarrassed.

The stewards are in charge of daily work. Their duties include hunting, planting, tending horses, collecting firewood, cooking, making clothes, maintaining weapons, and trading with the South for supplies needed by the night watchmen.

The night watchman's food is usually black bread, round bread and butter, pork pie, onion, cheese, mutton and stew with ale, drinking mulled cider or wine.Vegetables are eaten occasionally, spinach, chickpeas and turnips.Fresh fruit is almost invisible, and the Commander-in-Chief can only eat dried apples, raisins and nuts.

The night watchman's oath is very touching, Rogar even got goosebumps when he saw it on the scroll and recited it silently:

The long night is coming, I will watch from now on until I die.I will take no wives, hold no lands, and bear no children.I will not wear a crown, nor compete for honor and favor.I will do my duty faithfully, and live and die here.I am the sword in the dark, the guardian on the Wall, the flames against the cold, the light at dawn, the horn to wake the sleepers, the shield to guard the kingdom.I give my life and honor to the Night's Watch, tonight and every night to come.

On the day Tyrion and Rogar left, they had crabs that had just been brought in from Eastwatch in the morning for dinner, and they were still frozen in an ice bucket when they arrived, so they were particularly delicious and juicy.

After dinner, and the others left one after another, Mormont invited Tyrion and Rogar to sit down by the fire, and handed them each a glass of scalded wine, so spicy that it made tears flow. "We are in the extreme north, and the road here on the King's Road may be very dangerous." The commander-in-chief said as they drank. "The Night's Watch will escort you to Winterfell. They are three mighty warriors."

Tyrion offered to let Jon Snow accompany him, and he could also let him go back to visit relatives, but was rejected by the commander-in-chief. Going home to visit relatives would only arouse some emotions that should have been forgotten long ago.

"Lord Mormont, we are so grateful for your concern." Tyrion said, "I hope to repay your kindness."

"Of course you can," Mormont said bluntly, "Your sister is the current queen, your brother is a great knight, and your father is the most powerful person in the Seven Kingdoms today. As for you" Elder Bear looked at Rogar, " You are the noble princes of the kingdom. Please petition them on our behalf and tell them how desperately we need help. Your lords, your highness, you have seen with your own eyes that the Night Watch is gradually dying. We have less than one manpower left Thousands, six hundred are stationed here, two hundred are in the Shadow Tower, and East China Sea Watch has even fewer garrisons, and less than a third of them can actually fight—the Great Wall is a full three hundred miles long. Please think about it , if the enemy attacks, I can only send three people to guard each mile."

Luo Jia nodded and solemnly promised that he would tell his father, queen and queen.He didn't say the second half of the sentence, the father has been out of business for a long time, I don't know if he will pay attention to him.As for the mother, the mother has never been able to tell right from wrong, alas...

Tyrion also promised the Lord Commander that he would mention it to the king, my father and my brother.Tyrion Lannister has always kept his word.It's just that he didn't say the rest: King Robert would ignore him, Lord Tywin would ask him if he was insane, and James would just laugh.
