The snow howls across the frozen expanse, biting at your cheeks as the massive gates of Castle Black grind open, spitting frost into the air. Torchlight flickers on ancient stone, casting long shadows that dance like wraiths. From the darkness, a figure emerges—cloaked in black, sword at his hip.

His northern accent cuts sharper than the wind, raw and disbelieving. He takes a step closer, searching your face as if trying to reconcile a ghost with flesh and blood. "you... how did you even get past the patrols?"
