RIVERLANDS

Jorah and Talana are riding across a open field on horseback, Talana sitting in front of him. He hands her a slab of meat

Talana takes the mean and takes a bite.

Jorah: You're lucky. You don't want to be alone out here. Someone worse then me would find you

Talana: You are not a horrible person, Jorah.

Jorah: Beg to differ, my lady. I did awful things while serving the Mad King. You never knew Ser Sandor's brother. He once killed a man for snoring. I do not like Sandor but he did save Sansa

Talana: You're lying. Saved her

Jorah: There are horrible men in this world. Men who likes to beat and rape young girls. He saved her.

He pulls the horse to a stop and they stares out in the distance at the Blackwater

Talana: Is that the Blackwater?

Jorah: Blackwater? Where do you think I'm taking you?

Talana looks back at him confused

Talana: Where are you taking me? I thought we were heading to the Wall?

Jorah: That's the Red Fork. I'm taking you to the Twins.

Talana: Oh Seven Hells, no!

Jorah: Easy, my lady. Those despicable sons won't lay a hand on you.

Talana: Why are we going there?

Jorah: Lord Rohar will be there.

Talana: Why is Rohar at the Twins?

Jorah: He's getting married. The whole countryside is yapping about it

Talana: Rohar's getting married?

Jorah: He's marrying one of the Frey girls. Seems Walder is finally getting what he wants.

Talana: Which one is he marrying?

Jorah: Roslie I assume

Talana: Oh I met her once. I actually like her.

Jorah: We might just make it in time for the wedding.

He gallops the horse and they begin riding towards the river.

BEYOND THE WALL

Alden is leading Sam and Gilly though the snow covered forest. They head towards a abandoned cottage. Alden peeks his head inside slowly walking in and looks around.

He heads back outside where Sam and Gilly are waiting underneath a tree. A crow flies in landing on one of the branches.

Sam: It's getting dark.

Alden: We'll stay here for the night.

Gilly hands the baby into Sam's arms, Alden looks at Sam and the baby, smiling.

Alden: Sam, get the baby inside and comfortable. I'll find us firewood.

Sam: Sure

He turns and heads towards the cottage as Gilly and Alden leans down picking up sticks from the ground.

Another crow lands on the branch right beside the other crow. Alden hands the sticks to Gilly who heads towards the cottage.

NIGHT

Alden is clapping two stones together trying to start a fire.

Sam: How hard can it be to build a fire?
