The Snow Bastards

VALOR DOHAERIS

BEYOND THE WALL

Alden runs, desperate and exhausted, through blizzard conditions of blinding snow. He's panting and breathing heavily.

He comes to a stop just as a Night Watchmen's kneels in the snow

Alden: Brother?

He approaches the man and sees the man has his head sliced off holding his head in his lap. Alden looks defeated. He urns and his eyes widen as he sees the undead Free Folk striding towards him. He unsheathes Longclaw and swings the blade and scrambles backwards as Jeor, Sam, and the Night's Watch are behind him. He looks on in disbelief.

Jeor: Did you send the ravens?

Alden doesn't say a word

Sam: Alden?

Jeor: Alden, look at me. Did you send the ravens?

Alden: No

Jeor: That was your job. Your only job. We need to get back to the Wall. It's a long march. We know what's out there, but we have to make it, have to warn them or before winter's done, everyone you've ever known will be dead.

HARRENHAL

Rob, Hanir, Elizabeth, Rohar, and Roose are riding their horses. Ghost is walking alongside Elizabeth's horse outside the ruins of Harrenhal.

Roose: We should set the siege lines a thousand yards from Harrenhal.

Elizabeth: There won't be a siege. The Mountain can't defend a ruin.

Roose: I imagine the Mountain will defend whatever Tywin Lannister tells him to defend.

Robb: The Lannisters have been running from us since Oxcross.

Rohar: I'd love to see a fight between Hanir and the Mountain.

Robb: The men would love to see that but I do not think we're going to get one.

COURTYARD

Robb, Rohar, and Elizabeth looks around the courtyard that's littered with bodies. Flies buzzing around the bodies. Hanir and Roose walks up

Hanir: My Gods....

Rohar: Son of a----

Elizabeth: This is----

Karkstark: Two hundred Northmen slaughtered like sheep

Rohar: 200? Like this?

Roose: The debt will be repaid, my friend. For them and for your sons.

Karstark: Will it? They rot in the ground while their killer runs free.

Roose: The Kingslayer won't remain free for long. My best hunters are after him.

Catelyn walk somberly through the courtyard. She stops at a body propped against a section of wooden spikes, a blade through his heart. Hanir comes up behind her and looks at the sigil on the man's chest

Hanir: A Mallister?

Catelyn: Ser Jeremy. My father's bannerman.

Hanir looks over seeing Karstark and Roose walk away. He glances around at Rohar and Elizabeth walking though the courtyard dragging bodies towards wagons.

KING'S LANDING

Sansa and Shae sits on the dock looking at ships in the bay as Littlefinger approaches

Littlefinger: Lovely day for it. Watching the ships.

Sansa: Lord Baelish.

Littlefinger: Might I speak with Lady Sansa alone for a moment?
