another question, there was a battle before sam met with mormont? (though show didnt show it, it seemed like it)

when the warg with mance said he saw dead crows, and when they arrived at the scene there were dead horses in a spiral formation and no dead bodies. i assume this is where the battle took place between mormont and "the others" before mormont met up with sam.

maybe i'm confusing myself and should rewatch the first 3 episodes lol

i dont think he said it as a slogan, i think he meant it literally...so that begs the question, how did he know? from what i know ser piggy didnt get the word out, right?

yes, can i get confirmation on this: did sam ser piggy get the word out about white walkers? if i recall when commander asked "did you fly the ravens?" or something like that in episode 1 i think it was, piggy said no in shame or something if i recall correctly, which means rest of westoros dont know about them.

Well winter is literally coming, and it has nothing to do directly with the White Walkers. They mentioned it in season 1 when Tyrion was at the Wall talking to Commander Mormont. They talked about how summers and winters last for years, sometimes decades, and this summer was coming to an end and the next winter would be particularly long because this summer had lasted so long.


According to what Sam said he did not get off any birds. Which considering he was surrounded by white walkers and some how escaped and was running when Mormont saved him, I have no idea when he was supposed to have a chance to send any ravens. They are retreating back to the wall now to warn everyone. Of course who knows if anyone will believe them, since most people consider White Walkers to be a myth.

Believing it is a myth or not, if the night's watch tells you that the walkers are back, I think you have no choice but to believe them. Especially considering there's a big amount of crows backing the story + the leader (mormont)

Actually, I think a thread where you can talk about the books only to the point where we are in the show would be a good thing. A ton of people have requested it, as if you've read the book as far as the show, you can't talk in here. And you can't visit the other thread because its filled with spoilers from the last book.

I think they just mean that the actual winter is coming and the continent has a very harsh winter that can last years or even decades if i remember correctly. They dont mean the monsters from the north, which are myths to them and probably the only reason why they have that nightwatch is because their ancestors build a monumental wall to keep something out.

I don´t think the nobles of the south will care. They are at war, and even if not they would probably think it was just superstition or lies to get more funding. White Walkers haven´t been seen for thousands of years, why should reappear now, if there ever were any in the first place? There is no way that the kings of the south will send their personal soldiers, riches and supplies north, through an enemy nation, to fight a fairytale enemy. Even if they believe that the White Walkers have returned, they´ll just retreat south, gather their men and food and hope that the White Walkers will kill the men of the north and be satisfied with that. Most characters in the Game of Thrones haven´t shown themselves to be paragons of justice so far, they´re more likely to be petty and selfish.

the worst spoiler I've ever seen was my own fault. A total brain fart moment of.. 'oh I can't remember exact who this character is, surely checking the GoT wiki will be harmless.' First line in this characters wiki tells me more than any single spoiler could ever give. I goofed, big time.
