A Very AGOT Christmas Part I

Greetings, sers...

It's been a while since anyone of us posted. But given the holiday season, I thought I might just continue the story of what I texted everyone last year. I know, I know. I flooded the phones of those whom I texted. And I apologize for the length of what I sent, more so to those who ended up receiving multiple texts because their phones can only handle so much characters in a message. =]

Let me just post here what I sent as part of my Christmas greeting last year for posterity's sake and to give some semblance of continuity to my succeeding post which will go above this...

==================

The once mighty armies of Casterly Rock lay among the black and charred remains of The Red Keep. Those that survived fled to the North, bringing tales of terror that they suffered at the hands of the Dothraki horde.

"The True Queen comes," they cry. "All that oppose her are Bathed in Flame! None can Hold The North."

Hundreds of miles away, Jon looked down from The Wall, the wind biting through his thick coat. Putting a thickly gloved hand on Ghost, the only other living thing standing watch with him, he ground his teeth and squinted into the horizon.

"Let her come. A new age is dawning upon us. We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore. Lions, Stags and Wolves must unite and fight together... not from tyranny, oppression or persecution... but from annihilation.

Scouts have reported that Others are Massing beyond The Wall. Stannis has witnessed them firsthand. He understands that if we do not Muster the Realm, all will be lost. His armies gather at the Last Hearth. My brothers, what pathetic few of us that remain, will stand with them when they march to defend The Wall. Kevan Lannister and the survivors are gathering at Moat Cailin. Together with the Greatjon leading the Hordes of the Wolves and the Great Host, they prepare to meet her and those accursed lizards.

So let her come. If we are to meet this end, then let it be such an end with Lions, Stags and Wolves united!"
