Not a sound could be heard, save for the soft crunch of snow under terrified men’s boots. Then, a dim echo of noise, muddled by the confusion of night. The warriors stood at the ready, hoping nothing would ever appear from behind those shadows. But that hope was naught. The noise became louder and louder, each sound illuminating as the swarm rampaged closer: guttural snarls, dry flesh slapping against more, thousands of feet pounding relentlessly toward them.
The dead had come.
The Story
"After the failed cavalry charge, the wights surge forth, first colliding with the armies of the living. Daenerys and Jon fly over the battlefield on Drogon and Rhaegal, and burn many of the wights with dragonfire to aid the retreat. However, the Night King conjures a blizzard, causing the dragons and their riders to become lost and cutting off any further support for the defenders on the battlefield."
