Narration | {{{Narration}}} |
The North is a short story that chronicles the quest of Jon Snow into the lands of Frostfang under the command of Catherine Lovie. The North details much of the lands north of Harrenhall, and also explores the end of Sigmar through the further understanding of what happened to him at the end of his life as well as some of the darker elements of Europe that have been buried by the Numenorians in their earlier attempts to protect the continent.
The North begins chronologically during Chapter Eight of End of Darkness as Jon Snow first mentions how following the War with Gondor he is commanded to head northward to deal with a problem. The North can be read or not read, but it gives a great deal of backstory as to why Jon Snow feels so deeply troubled during the story, and why during Westros he forgoes his chance at being true born, and takes men northward.
First beggining when Jon Snow is barely fifteen the story takes a large gap and happens again when he is years older and deciding to return to the lands of the north, but mostly wanting to see Ygritte again. Jon Snow is absolutely the only POV character, but the other main characters that prop up within the story are Sam Tarly, Ygritte, members of both the Nights Watch, and the Clan Styr that they encounter on the way. The romance between Jon Snow and Ygritte is also a major element within the story.
The North begins with Jon Snow being ordered to move northward to the lands of Stor under great secrecy and with only a few Lucernians able to go with them. After arriving there they deal with many consequences of the situation in the Frostfangs including discovering the existence of a centuries long gaurd against a hidden race in the Frostfangs.

Plot Summary
Chapter 1
Jon Snow
Chapter Details
Jon Snow is the POV Character of this chapter and during this chapter he is sitting with his brother Brann, and Robb when his father Eddard comes into the room. Eddard Starke would go to find his son following him reading the letter, and he found him spending time with his two other sons Brann, and Robb and it killed him to have to send him on what would most likely be his dying mission. He would send Brann away but Robb accompanied him and Jon into the hall where Brandon, and Benjen Starke waited alongside many other nobles of House Starke to plan the mission sent forth by Catherine Lovie. During the meeting it was made clear that the little information they had been given left them nearly completely in the dark but they obviously couldn't get more without risking making Bill Lovie aware of the fact that Catherine Lovie was no longer in his corner. Eddard Starke gave Jon command of the forces he had used during the Gondor War, and let him know that he could take whatever other men he needed but he had to travel with a relatively small force. Jon would gather together a few extra men that he had come to know, and then after saying goodbye to his family he would travel northward to the Riverlands to take a boat to Storhold which was the port closest to Frostfang. The trip to Storhold was completely uneventful but their arrival their was greeted by two men clothed in the armor of House Highmore, and one in the colors of House Martell or whom without saying a word passed a note to Jon Snow that said to meet them east of the town in the town of Stor. The town of Stor was the capital of the Kingdom of Stor, and thus was heavily populated by the Storr. Jon would follow the notes command and travelled east to Stor where two days from the town they were greeted at their camp by the two men of House Lovie. The men introduced themselves as Harven Moore, Hedrin Tolhmave II., Cotter Highmore, and Domeric Highmore of whom had been sent to Storhold to make Jon Snow more aware of the mission they were sent north to accomplish. This group also had several men at arms with them with the Highmores bringing five men, the Moore's two, and the Tolhmaves brining three. Cotter Highmore told them that northward of them was the land of Frostfang which they knew but they didn't know that the land held a massive wall which was controlled by a group called the Thenn, and for centuries the Thenn had placed a toll on those wanting to travel south, and north but they had never chosen a side. He explained that things were changing and the Thenn were engaged in a massive civil conflict pitting the forces of Styr Thenn of whom wanted to side silently with Arnor but continue making the road neutral against the forces of Magmar Thenn who wanted to side with The Empire and allow them free reign into Westros. Jon Snow and the rest of his force wanted to know how they had come by this information and Cotter Highmore said that it had come from players inside the goverment of the Thenn who wanted to end the conflict that was destroying Thenn from the inside. Travelling through the lands of the Storr was uneventfull until they arrived at the Long Lake where they were blocked on the road by a group of soldiers clothed in Black Robes. The soldiers said that they were men of the Nights Watch and that they were being lied to about what was happening on the other side of the Wall. When asked what was actually happening the men were evasive but said that they would only allow the Lucernians to enter if they wore the cloth of the Nights Watch and promised that whatever happened inside they would not bring the Thenn southward. Being surrounded by these dangerous men made him quickly agree to their proposal and thus the entire part would don the robes, and markings of the Nights Watch while still maintaining their own house colors. Now escorted by the Nights Watcht they entered what the Nights Watch called the Gift. The gift they said was land given to the NIghts Watch by the King of ancient Stor so that they could provide for their mission protecting the Storr against the dangers of the North. As they entered Castle Black they were met by the Nights Watch Commander in the form of Joer Mormont of whom told them more about the inner workings of the Night's watch but continued to be evasive about what the great danger north of the wall actually was. During this explanation Jeor briefly left leaving Jon, Tucker, and Samwell alone with nights watchmen in the form of Bowen Barsh, and Denys Bucknet of which Bowen explains he was a noble of Storr but as the third son he chose the honor of the Nights Watch to inheriting nothing from his family, while Denys Bucknet explains he was the fourth son of his noble family in Lombard to the east and joined for similar reasons. Jeor returns and tells Jon that he was going to accompany him north with a small Night's Watch force accompanied as well by several knights from Storr as he understood that the mission Jon was on had a greater consequence then anything in the entire world. At this kind of statement Jon once again attempted to force Jeor to explain himself but all he said was that their were dangers in the cold of the north that noone should ever have to be afraid of.
