### At the Wall

Gendry, Edric and Devan ride out of the gates of Eastwatch-by-the-Sea, heading south for Winterfell. Tormund and Beric Dondarrion review the defences atop the Wall at Eastwatch-by-the-Sea. Tormund remarks that the crows say he'll get used to the height, but he admits it'll probably be a while. Suddenly, the pair sees movement at the edge of the Haunted Forest. A White Walker emerges atop an undead horse, followed shortly by a horde of wights. More and more White Walkers emerge as the Night Watch's horns sound three times. However, the army of the dead stops some distance from the foot of the Wall and Tormund looks relieved; despite their numbers, the dead don't have anything that could possibly get them past the barrier. But then all on the Wall stop in horror as they hear a very familiar sound; a screeching roar mixed with the heavy thumping of huge wings beating the air.

Suddenly, the undead Viserion swoops down, with the Night King riding on his back. In a burst of bright blue flame, Viserion demolishes some of the scouting platforms atop the Wall and then turns his flames against the Wall itself. Realizing they have no chance against such a foe, Tormund shouts for them all to run and the Night's Watch brothers and wildlings alike desperately try to evacuate as ice melts and rock crumbles. Tormund and Beric from atop the Wall, and Gendry, Edric and Devan from some distance south of Eastwatch, all watch in horror as the entire eastern extremity of the Wall collapses under Viserion's breath and crashes into the Shivering Sea, leaving a gap between the Wall and the sea large enough for the army of the dead to cross. A road now open to them, the White Walkers direct the wights to begin their march into the North. Wights and giants and other monstrosities march by the thousands into the North as the undead Viserion and Night King fly overhead to lead the march. No more than a couple miles in front of them, Gendry, Edric and Devan ride south, hard and fast, to flee the oncoming Army of the Dead.

The Great War has begun.
