Epilogue (Part 2/3): The Witch and the Onion Knight
They hide the body well. Wrapping him up in fur and cloth, they strap him to the fastest horse they can find.
Both Davos and Melisandre realize they cannot stay here. The Wall is no place for a red fire priestess or a man dubbed the Onion Knight. Though they may not agree on much, one thing is certain. Jon Snow must be saved.
This was no trick of the mind. This was not chance or mere coincidence. A man was placed in the fire and the same man came out again, without burns or even the slightest trace of redness. "This man has been chosen," Melisandre proclaims fastening her red cloak. "The Lord of Light has claimed Jon Snow as his champion. And it is up to us to bring him back."
Without another word Davos and Melisandre take the body and the horses, riding off into the shadows. For the night is dark and full of terrors, but the fire burns them all away.
