This high up on the wall, even in the early morning hours, theres no sign of sunrise yet. One can hardly see the ground below in the dark and cold. The Troops are sleeping after a hard fought day against the Intruders. These days there are so many different enemies assaulting the Wall; Colombian Orcs, Mexican Goblins and Peruvian Undead.

The Commander is not back from his trip to the South, asking for more troops and better weapons.

There is rumour of a new Queen with a huge army from across the Endless Sea. There is even talk that she has brought Dragons! Methinks someone has an overwrought imagination! Dragons? Next there will be talk of the return of the Valarians! Things are bad enough without those fanciful nightmares.

But here we stand. The Nights Watch will endure until there is nothing left and we all go into the dark.
