Ten years ago today, our [[keyya_locke|mother]] died. Me and [[jon_lynderly|Jon]] were just four years old. At the end of her pregnancy with [[kara_lynderly|Kara]], times were growing dark. I always thought I just remembered it that way, because they were the last memories I had of my [[keyya_locke|mother]]. But it would make sense of me to think of the last days I spent with my [[keyya_locke|mother]] as joyful ones, wouldn't it? I shouldn't remember them as dark.\\ | Ten years ago today, our [[keyya_locke|mother]] died. Me and [[jon_lynderly|Jon]] were just four years old.

I think there was a bad wind on the castle then. Like a dark cloud come from her Old Gods. Me and [[jon_lynderly|Jon]] never talk about it, but I think he felt the same thing too. I think he still remembers it, but keeps quiet about it – like he always does.\\ | I think there was a bad wind on the castle then. Like a dark cloud come from her Old Gods.

- | A week before she died, she told me a story. I think she used to tell me lots of stories, but for the life of me I can only remember this one. It was about Bran the Builder. About his childhood. He ran away from his father when he was very young – ran away to pursue his dream. To join his [[keyya_locke|mother]] in the forest – and eventually, that is the reason he became great. He... I don't remember. His father wanted him to stay, to take his place... but Bran was meant for something more. Something better.\\ | + | A week before she died, she told me a story.

I think she was trying to tell me something. Maybe she knew she was going to die and had to tell me something the only way you can tell it to a four year old.\\ | I think she was trying to tell me something.

I can't join my [[keyya_locke|mother]] in the forest, but I can join her people. I'm sure they'll have use of someone of my skills on the Wall. And once I'm there, there's not much even [[justine_lynderly|father]] can do about it.\\ | I can't join my [[keyya_locke|mother]] in the forest, but I can join her people.
