JON POV
Northern Kingdom, north of the Glovers' territory, 290DC, 2 days later.
-------------------------------------------
Jon woke up in his personal tent with a strong headache, wondering about the first thing on his mind – what happened.

"I see you've woken up..." He turned to the source of the voice and saw Ducken standing by his side.

"How long have I been unconscious?" Jon asked before anything else.

"2 days, I'm quite surprised, you woke up before William, given that you took two of those damned potions, your body should be quite stressed out by now." Ducken said, raising an eyebrow.

"My body is special..." Jon shrugged.

"Damn you, brat, along with your blessings from our gods." Ducken teased, but he still had a smile on his face.

"By the way, there's a young lady who refused to go home before talking to you, even though your men seemed eager to take her away as soon as possible, but the girl is quite stubborn." Ducken spoke again in a playful tone, making Jon raise an eyebrow.

Jon got up from bed; Ducken didn't protest, knowing how stubborn this child was, and followed him out of the tent. Jon still had a strong headache, and the daylight didn't help much. Waiting for his eyes to adjust to the daylight, Jon saw the camp surrounded by Glovers' men, a bit away from his animals and giants.

The first thing they noticed was the animals near Jon's tent, which had been still, going out to hunt only a few times, suddenly standing up with the group of cubs, making people a bit uneasy because even other animals like bears and shadow cats did the same.

They soon noticed the boy with his loyal guard, and they realized that the animals reacted to him. Still, they were stunned by the female giant, now without armor, running towards the boy too.

"I still wonder if I'm dreaming..." One of them said, looking at the bizarre scene.

"Yeah, I still can't believe my eyes." Others said, seeing the boy petting his animals.

"He really is as the rumors point out, but there was nothing about giants, can you believe that? Giants, giants in the North, fully armed with powerful armor, did you see what happened to the savages?" Another said, Jon seemed dissatisfied in front of them, while the giant hugged him tightly.

"I don't want to be against them, ever. They wiped out a force of almost 200 savages without a single loss!" Another said.

"Are those other giants laughing?" Another noticed.

"How bizarre, they clearly aren't human, who would laugh like that!"

Meanwhile, a girl and some guards approached Jon and his group, quite cautiously, as he was surrounded by powerful animals and a giant, while the other giants seemed to enjoy the scene.

"Are you Jon Snow, the little Jon?" After making Seryna stop hugging him, he looked towards the source of the voice. It was a girl with much better clothes than him, whom he found in the savage camp; this was Ester Glover (OC), the youngest daughter of the lord of Deepwood Motte.

She approached with noble grace and looked at Jon with a sparkle in her eyes, unafraid of the animals by his side or the giant, who seemed to dislike how the girl looked at Jon. Jon noticed her brown hair and green eyes, a girl who would become very beautiful when she grew up.

"Lady Ester, be careful," he warned, not wanting to provoke any of those animals, even though he had spent several days with them without any accidents.
