And We Shall Never See Their Like Again.

“And we shall never see their like again.”

Day 8: Summer - Blood

I saw Bran’s wolf tear out a man’s throat at Winterfell, and loved him for it.

Lord Tywin would soon march on Riverrun, she heard. [...] He'd bought a ton of silver to forge magic swords that would slay the Stark wargs. (Arya II, ACOK)

-

“Warg,” said Jojen Reed.

Bran looked at him, his eyes wide. “What?”

“Warg. Shapechanger. Beastling. That is what they will call you, if they should ever hear of your wolf dreams.”

The names made him afraid again. “Who will call me?”

“Your own folk. In fear. Some will hate you if they know what you are. Some will even try to kill you.” (Bran V, ACOK)

-

"Aye. All that, and more. You are a warg too, they say, a skinchanger who walks at night as a wolf." King Stannis had a hard smile. "How much of it is true?" (Jon XI, ASOS)

-

Lord Janos was red-faced and quivering. "The beast," he gasped. "Look! The beast that tore the life from Halfhand. A warg walks among us, brothers. A WARG! This . . . this creature is not fit to lead us! This beastling is not fit to live!" (Jon XII, ASOS)

-

"Then you had best be on your way, boy." Slynt laughed, dribbling porridge down his chest. "Greyguard's a good place for the likes of you, I'm thinking. Well away from decent godly folk. The mark of the beast is on you, bastard."

[...]

"No," Lord Janos protested, flecks of porridge spraying from his lips. "No, unhand me. He's just a boy, a bastard. His father was a traitor. The mark of the beast is on him, that wolf of his… Let go of me!” (Jon II, ADWD)

-

“When Stark changed into a wolf, his northmen did the same. The mark of the beast was on them all. Wargs birth other wargs with a bite, it is well-known. It was all my brothers and I could do to put them down before they slew us all." (Davos III, ADWD)

-

She was the night wolf. (The Blind Girl, ADWD)

Just some extra werewolf-y lines about the Stark kids.

I have waited ALL FUCKING YEAR TO POST THIS

Santa is coming tonight.

The memory made Arya smile and after that, the darkness held no more terrors for her.

man if this isn’t a mood.
