The combat stops, however, when Samwell Tarly - a soft, fat lordling from the south - arrives to join them. Jon Snow practices sword-fighting with Grenn and Pyp in Castle Black's courtyard, coaching them along. "Your loyalty to your captors is touching," Tyrion tells the ward of House Stark. Tyrion leaves the castle to spend the night in a brothel, and Theon follows him to the gate. Tyrion is a bit surprised by Robb's lack of courtesy, though that doesn't stop him from offering Bran a gift: drawings of a special saddle that will allow the crippled boy to ride. In the Great Hall, Robb Stark meets with Tyrion Lannister, who has stopped at Winterfell on his return to King's Landing. Theon Greyjoy enters the room with Hodor, a large and simpleminded stable boy, who carries Bran downstairs to meet some guests. Bran wakens from the dream and finds himself in bed with his wolf Summer - still unable to walk. He walks after the bird, and when he catches up to it, sees that the raven has three eyes.

A raven flies through the gates of Winterfell, swooping past Bran Stark, who's standing in the courtyard practicing his archery.
