A city of wildlings, Hardhome is built into caves on a huge series of ridges.

Crowl disembarks from his little boat and takes a look up the icy beach to what is the only real village that the wild kings have beyond the wall. He had come here once with his sister trying to find her a mate, and the sudden distaste in his mouth causes him to spit in the water behind him.

The city is near empty. It is far from the bustling metropolis hwas used to. Everyoneremaining looks sullen, almost defeated.

Crowl approaches the first wildling he sees. "What's happened here?" He says looking around for any signs of a recent fight or battle against the village.

"Slavers," a woman said. "Came about a week go. Thousands of them, dozens of ships. Killed many, enslaved more, drove hundreds off." Crowl can see that it must have been a surprise attack, for no sig of real fightng is evident.

"Fuck the slavers." Crowl states, "If they think they can tame our kind then they will be broken in turn when the first men rise again."

"All free folk have the power of the first men running through them." Crowl states, "Do you know where Savinia has set up her camp to unite all the tribes?" He asks her.

"She wanders with her army, but last I heard she was on her way to the Frostfangs." The woman looks about at the ruined city. "The slavers promised they'd return," she said. "They left us to repopulate the land, they said. Because then they would have plenty of slaves when they returned."

"It takes time to recover and repopulate, build good defenses before the slavers come back. I must meet with Sivinia, afterwards I will see to it that you and yours are no longer bothered by any Slavers that come by." He tells her.

"I am The Crowl, the man who is going to be bringing this bitch Savinia down, and bring the Free Folk into a power that the southerners will bend their knee too." He states looking down at the woman.

"I look forward to witnessing," she said. "If you need a queen...well...I wish I was thirty years younger."

The Crowl nods, then getting on his unicorns back he motions for his men to depart west into the haunted forest towards the frostfangs.
