Why haven't you been updating? This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com
Well, I'm like 5-7 chapters in Patren to end, and I'm taking my time with the ending, I rather do... something I feel happy with... than you know.
-Anyway Enjoy!
It took me a couple hours to arrive, to where Ned Stark was, getting a closer update of the situation, and it seems the others were coming toward the wall as we speaked, Ned also informed me he heard a powerful roar in the distance, a roar that could be heard miles away from the wall.
I had to act fast, I had to stop them so I had to organize the information I had, for one they had a dragon, but for some reason the Night King had decided to march on the ground, meaning either he is confident in his victory, or the dragon is incapable of flying. If so, I had an advantage against him.
I needed to see up close how strong was his army, to get a general idea of what to expect, on how to move, but the little I knew was not enough, my ravens had information about the army, but their information had a lot of blanks, I needed numbers, formations, and more.
*We need to scout his army,* Nick Fury offered.
And while tempting, the idea was absolutely out of the table, if the chance of survival was one out of ten, I didn't want to increase his power even more, but I still needed to know.
Maybe I could wait for the Night King in the wall, that way I would get a better look, of course by all means I had no intention of fighting the army alone, this plan was for me to simply get a peek at the enemy forces. After that I would fly with Neltharion out of the wall, with more information about what to expect.
"I will go to the wall," I decided, getting worried looks for everyone around me.
"You can't go alone!" Ned Stark protested.
"I won't fight alone, rather I won't fight at all," I sighed, "I just want to get a general idea of what we are actually facing, fighting the unknown is a double edged sword, if our strategy is ill suited for their power we will lose" I knew that much, I won the crown because I was an unknown, a mystery. One that no one solved in time.
Bear titties? "I plan to atone we all do," Leaf answered, getting nods of confirmation from the few members of her species that remained.
"How?" Ygritte asked.
"All magic comes from life you can't create anything without giving anything in return you have to give to receive, unless the magic you have is a gift from the gods otherwise, you have to pay a price, everytime you use magic," Leaf answered, "The bigger the sacrifice, the bigger the result, so we will sacrifice all we have our lives to buy humanity some time,"
"You plan on dying how long? How long will you buy with your life?" I inquired.
"Me? A week or two," Leaf answered, "All of my people? A month, maybe a bit more I can't really tell, the Night King is stronger so in the end, I don't really know,"
"I see," I nodded, my feather ruffling in concern, "Is there any other way?"
"No I must atone for what I have done," Leaf smiled, "If my death can change the tides of this war even a bit, it will make all of this worth it,"
"I see we all must play our parts, we all must do our absolute best, if we want to win," I didn't want her to kill herself, but in the end, she was right, even a day was valuable right now.
"Is this Ronard that important?" Ygritte inquired, "Do you two really think he can stop that thing coming?"
I looked at the girl, who was trying with all her might to conceal her fear, all her life she had been fighting alone, to survive, she never showed weakness before, and was trying hard not to right now.
"I can't really tell, I don't see the future only the past and the present," I answered, "But I can tell you, that in all history. There has never been a man more capable of facing this if he can't, humanity never stood a chance"
"Way to lighten up the mood," Tormund grumbled, "Well he better fucking win, or I'll kill him mahself!"
"All we can do is trust him and help him every way we can," I added.
"I see," Ygritte sighed, "Well.. if I have to die I rather die fighting,"
"Me too," Tormund nodded.
"Then let's make haste, we can waste a second here we must arrive at the wall as soon as possible," Leaf said, and once again everyone started marching.
"Let's go and meet the fucker" Tormund chuckled.
"Yes lets," Ygritte nodded with a soft smile.
