Craster's Fort

First, you gave her your name, and she told you hers.

Afterwards, she guided you to a warm wooden hall. Women walked to and fro. They were women enough that you couldn't remember their faces or quantity. Craster was eating in front of a cauldron placed in the middle of the hall. He was a bearded and hairy man. His hair was gray and dirty. He lifted his head and looked you up and down.

The daughter explained to him what happened to you.

“Can't the crow speak?” he asked.

“My name is Koby”.

“Serve this little girl some stew,” he ordered his daughter.

He told you to sit beside him. You did it. He asked and you explained your story to him. He wasn't surprised and didn't even show any reaction. Then the girl from before brought you your stew and you fed.

Craster's daughters gave you a curious look, as if they rarely saw anyone like you around. A boy? A crow? You wondered what it was that tickled their curiosity.

“You will only be here for one night”, he said after he was finished.

"That's all I ask, sir."

Then he got up and left.

You've heard a lot of stories about Craster, and they were all bad. They said he was a ****, murderer, pedophile. Personally, he didn't look that bad. He was kind of nice, except for the fifteen times he called you "little girl."

Later, one of Craster's daughters took you to the bedroom where you would sleep.
