    Summary

    Bran had made this weeklong journey to Greywater Watch many times before, but the final stretch on the cold, grey stone always unnerved the Northmen. Yet at the head of the royal procession beside him the crannogmen never flinched. "This is their home," he constantly reminded himself.

    Bran heard Meera's breath hitch as the end of the causeway crept through the mist into sight. The towers of Greywater Watch poked through the horizon, and the soft, shifting blue of the ocean melted through the haze behind them. With every step closer, the reality crept in on them. Jojen, as always, kept his blank gaze locked forward, emotionless, as if to whisper 'I told you so' deep in his sister's ear.
    ----
    Jojen's eyes flitted to Bran's in a fleeting moment, and the iron lizard-lion snarled from atop the crown. The calmest look flooded Bran and reassured him. "This is my destiny."
    ----
    "Promise me you'll be forever faithful," Jojen whispered. It was no question. Bran's hot breath poured over him. "Promise me, Bran." There were no secrets between them now, no walls to keep their love apart. "Can you do that for me?"
