A Storm of Swords – Refugees

A Storm of Swords – Refugees

Refugees from Moletown climb to the top of the Wall fleeing the invading Thenns.

This was another one where there was another one that had too much going on in one paragraph. But it was a good chance to show to focus on the small folk. I’d like to assume there’s more to Moletown then a place the Night’s Watch goes for their downtime.

The last few moles were still making the long climb, Jon saw, urged on by his brothers. Grenn was carrying a little boy in his arms, while Pyp, two flights below, let an old man lean upon his shoulder. The oldest villagers still waited below for the cage to make its way back down to them. He saw a mother pulling along two children, one on either hand, as an older boy ran past her up the steps.
