Sam and the remnants of the Great Ranging are high-tailing it back to the wall. They’ve been decimated by the Others and wights. Sam eventually falls behind, but with a dragonglass dagger he manages to kill a White Walker. Mackelly and Simon walk way less than a mile in his shoes.

Chapter Review:
Sam Tarly is sobbing with tiredness, pain, and cold. The reader, with annoyance at Sam’s bleating. But he has had it rough. He was rudely awaken by three blasts of the Night’s Watch horn. Said a cheery hello to his incontinent would-be assassin Chett. Failed in his mission to release ravens with the increasingly dire news of how the battle progressed between the Great Ranging and the army of Others that overwhelmed them. And finally fled on horseback.
That didn’t last. Lord Commander Mormont gathered the remnants together, enforced a circle of torch bearers to keep pursuit by the undead at bay, and made the able-bodied dismount in favor of the injured and supplies. Finally, he points them in the direction of the Wall.
Sam collapses. He can go no further. Grenn cannot move him, but Small Paul carries him for a while - on the promise of a talking raven. The trio fall outside the ring of torches and a White Walker upon an undead horse attacks them. Paul succumbs but his weight pulls the sword from the Other’s grip. Sam gropes for a weapon and finds the dragonglass dagger. He thrusts it at the assailant who incredibly melts into nothing at its touch.
