  As dawn tihe horizon with shades of pink and e, murmurs of admiration still echoed through the Northern camp. Soldiers, lords, and nobles present in that field of hope fixed their gazes on Jon Snow's tents, and a respectful silence hung over the camp.

  The murmurs of admiration still spread through the camp like waves, creating an atmosphere charged with reverehe younger soldiers whispered among themselves, sharing awed observations. The lords, usually aced to the harshness of the North, couldn't tain the surprise still stamped on their faces sihe night before.

  Every tent, every area designated for animals, was now a focal point for curiosity and admiration. The giants and giant wolves were now more than legends and stories told by the fireside; they were a reality, an integral part of the army gathering to fight for freedom.

  As expressions of the spectators varied, from children with wide eyes to hardened warriors with discreet smiles, ohing was certain: Jon Snow's camp was not just a military field but a spectacle of natural wonders and magical creatures, a sight that united Northers in a on purpose. The Northern group, supported by Jon and his magnifit creatures, was ready to challee with the force of nature by their side.

  Jon stepped out of his tent to have the first meal with his people; Du and William had prepared boiling water to make coffee. It didn't take long for a Stark soldier to e to the camp, as his father requested his prese the first meal.

  "Sorry, let Lord Stark know that I 't leave my group during the first meal; it's our tradition. Still, thank him for the invitation; he'll uand." Jon said. He was a bastard; he could refuse such offers, especially since he didn't want to leave his faithful group.

  Ohe soldier left, and Jon, ign all eyes in the camp turoward them, began to join William, Du, and the giants to have his first meal. Jon, William, Du, and the giants formed an impromptu circle shortly afterward. The soft voices of Jon and his panions filled the space, blending with the crag of wood in the nearby campfire. Each took their first meal with a serene expression, feeding not only on bread a but also on the camaraderie they shared. The coffee, served in rustic mugs, warmed hands as.

  Upon pleting the meal, Jon and his group did not remain idle. Bustle took over the camp as Jon dedicated himself to preparing and anizing the surroundings. He spent his time mainly exeg his alchemical innovations.

His own father, Lord Stark, had extehe invitation, a surprise that reverberated through Jon's attentive eyes.

  Faced with the invitation, the young Stark raised an eyebrow, expressirained surprise. He did not expect to be included in a war cil, as his position, though ceous, did not seem to fer the usual status for suteras. A shadow of doubt briefly hovered in his eyes, but the expression soon transformed into determination.

  The mai, a stronghold of strategy and pnning, loomed imposingly as Jon approached. The muffled sounds of strategic discussions and battle pns escaped through the edges, revealing a world of intrigue and decisions that would shape the fate of the camp and, sequently, the fate of the North.

  "Yes, we're discussing how to open the fortress gates. We defeat them by keeping them trapped and running out of food, but they have hostages, and we 't stay much longer here; the men are eager to return to their homes and families." Lord Stark said.

  "I uand, but how could I be of help?" Jon asked.

  "We could use yiants, d." One of the men spoke, and Jon immediately uood; they wao use his people?

  Jo anger suddenly. After Jon hahem fieel, they still treated him like a child to be used for their be? He was quite angry, but held it for now, although it was hard, and some noticed.

  "We're here to ask for your opinion, Jon. We won't force you into anything." Llover, the oh a signifit debt to the boy, spoke and gave a dirty look to the noble who spoke earlier.

  "Yes, Jon. I won't pel you to use yiants, but I want your opinion." His father spoke.
