Bran hosts a harvest feast for all the visiting dignitaries at Winterfell. It’s kind of fun for a while. Howland Reed’s children arrive to the surprise of all. Bran hits the hay when the dancing starts in earnest. In his dream, he sees the Reeds visit the godswood and stroke Summer. Mackelly and Simon cast their third eye over the scene.

Chapter Review:
Bran Stark hosts the feast and directs each course to be offered first to a different lord, to ensure diplomatic equivalence. The food is good. The scene is amiable, but Bran daydreams of Summer in the godswood.

Unexpectedly, Meera and Jojen Reed arrive from Greywater Watch. Bran has never met a crannogman before. They express their fealty and their great interest in meeting the direwolves. The party continues until the dancing makes Bran yearn for bed. Hodor obliges.

In his dream, Bran sees through Summer’s eyes the approaching Jojen and Meera. Jojen intuits the nature of the wolves, noting that Summer is stronger than he knows. When he touches Summer’s muzzle Bran is disconnected and lapses into his familiar dream of falling.
