Jon and his Night\u2019s Watch brothers prepare Castle Black for battle. The wildlings overwhelm the Black Brothers with their superior numbers. However, the Night\u2019s Watch set a trap and the wildlings run right into it. After the fighting ends, Jon finds Ygritte. She\u2019s in bad shape. Simon and Mackelly remove their helms in respect.
Chapter Review:
Jon Snow waits atop the King\u2019s Tower with two of his Night\u2019s Watch brothers and six scarecrows dressed as Black Bothers. He knows the wildlings are getting close, as Mole\u2019s Town burns in the distance. Jon hopes Ygritte won\u2019t come with the rest, but he knows better. He hopes he\u2019ll get a shot at the Magnar of Thenn, an enemy he\u2019ll have no qualms putting an arrow through.
The wildlings attack at night. Jon and his brothers in the towers rain arrows down on them. However, there are too many to stop. The wildlings overrun the barricade set up to protect the gate to the Wall and the steps up the Wall. The Night\u2019s Watch men flee up the stairs and the wildlings follow. When the wildlings are fully committed to the stairs, Jon and the archers send fire arrows into flammables placed under the stairs. Donal Noye lights the stairs above the wildlings on fire, trapping the wildlings between the set of flames. The wildling force is extinguished when a huge slab of ice breaks off of the Wall and crushes them.
Jon, aided by a new brother named Satin, finds Ygritte lying with an arrow in her chest. Jon tells her that Maester Aemon will fix her up and she will see 100 real castles. She touches Jon on the face and tells him that he knows nothing, as she dies.
