A story based upon the events of seasons 5 - 6. The early chapters involve Jon Snow, and is based around what could've happened had Ygritte survived the battle at Castle Black, and there is minor tweaking to the canonical storyline. Chapter 12 and beyond are my fanfiction of how I feel season 7 could have played out. (note: most of the chapters were written before season 7 aired)

No one said life was easy. Tomorrow is not promised to anyone. Death has become our world and within it, we are slaves to its horrors. Take my hand, for the moment you let go of me will be the moment I lose myself. Arya/Gendry
