Tyrion, Jon, and Benjen are headed north. Leaving behind Winterfell and its Stark hospitality, in favor of the true north with its stark emptiness. Jon’s trying not to have second thoughts. Tyrion’s more than happy to voice those thoughts. We worry at it, like a dog with a bone.
Chapter Review
Jon and Tyrion have a long chat while heading north to the Wall. Tyrion’s reading a history of dragons, explaining that he always loved the idea of flying and could not believe the dragon’s skulls he’d seen in King’s Landing. Tyrion mentions youthful dreams of killing his family with dragon’s fire. Jon thinks that this might be a character flaw, but Tyrion helpfully points out that Jon was probably treated so much better by all the Starks. That one stung. Tyrion doubles down with a few snarky comments about Jon’s new family (thieves and rapists) which ultimately leads Ghost to intervene by snarling menacingly in the Imp’s face. Jon brings the wolf to heel, and the two patch things up a little.
