Chapter Thirteen - Jon 2 - A Clash of Kings | A Song of Ice and Fire
Send us a Text Message.
The Great Ranging has found a fourth abandoned wildling village under a great weirwood tree. There is no sign of struggle or clue as to their motivations. Mormont sends word to Maester Aemon via one of Sam’s ravens and the ranging continues north. Mackelly and Simon try to keep warm.
Chapter Review:
The wildling village is deserted. Only some charred human bones remain within the mouth of the weirwood tree that shades the entire village. Ser Jeor Mormont wonders why the wildlings burn their dead, but Jon Snow has a pretty good idea. This is the fourth abandoned village they’ve found. So Mormont pens a message for Maester Aemon.
Jon delivers the message to Sam, who is supervising the ravens. He’s trying to teach them to talk. Sam is warming to the ranging, as there don’t appear to be any wildlings around. That which reassures Sam is troubling to everybody else.
Jon and the Old Bear discuss what Benjen Stark would have done had he found the villages deserted, and they conclude that he would have continued on to try to solve the mystery. This gives Jon some hope. Their force will soon be swelled to 300 when they rendezvous with Qhorin Halfhand’s men from the Shadow Tower. In the meantime, the trek north continues.
