The training yard rang to the sound of swords. A group of new recruits were sparring under the sneering eyes of Ser Alliser Thorne as he lied in wait for a chance to humiliate anyone who made a mistake. The Lord Commander Mormont had his eyes fixed on one recruit, Jon Snow as he helped a large boy cowardly curled up on the ground while another beat him with a training sword. He was surprised with the courage the young man had in him.
Suddenly a sound was heard in the distance. Carried by the wind, the sound of a horn. All of the Night's watch knew what the horns meant. One blow for a ranger returning, two for wildlings and three, a third horn blow hasn't been heard in centuries but they still knew what it meant.
White walkers.
But as a second call was heard, Castle black went up in chaos, rangers grabbed their swords and readied their horses to go beyond the wall and ward off the wilding's threatening approach. The new recruits stood and watched as their future brothers rode into the tunnel quickly closing the large iron door behind them. All they could do was wait until they returned.
The large door opened once again as the rangers rode back in, no one was hurt, they looked as if they didn't fight at all. A ranger climbed down from his horse and announced that they were dead before they even reached them.
"And how exactly were they already dead?" asked Thorne in disbelief, the ranger turned his head to the entrance of the tunnel as three strangers came riding through.
Lord Commander Mormont raised his eyebrows, he could see that they weren't wildlings but looked more like royalty as their horse came to a halt. A tall armoured man climbed down from his horse and removed his helm, he wore the sigil of a Weirwood Tree forged into his breastplate.
Another climbed down from their horse with the help of the armoured man's guiding hand, their hood covered their face but the silk dress hugged tightly around the curves of what was a young woman's body. The man helped another woman who was with child down from her horse; she looked up at him with a smile on her lips.
All of the Night's Watch stood in silence as they approached the Lord Commander and Ser Alliser Thorne, they bowed their heads in respect and the strangers did the same.
"I am Lord Commander Mormont of the Night's Watch and who are you?" said the Lord Commander his eyes shifting between the strangers, the young woman stepped forward after sharing a glance back towards her companions and removed her hood.
Members of the Night's Watch shared looks between each other, the woman was beautiful.
The armoured man stepped forward.
"My lord, may I present my sister Princess Tamina of house Greywin and my wife Mayla the Princess's handmaiden" said the man;
"So that would make you a Prince, Ser?" asked Thorne,
"Uh, no Ser, I am Cane her half-brother and the Commander of her guard" he replied,
"Another bastard" Thorne scoffed, rolling his eyes at the man,
