Enemies stir in Westeros's far northern tundra, coming from beyond the furthest place on the map, The Haunted Forest. A shell of its former self the Night's Watch must send a team of its own through the Haunted Forest to try and save mankind.

What they find on the other side of the forest may surprise them though...

Awesome new cover art done by the amazing Ayemal.

:rainbowlaugh: poor Caramel, [REDACTED]. That's gotta sting.

I've only recently gotten into a game of thrones and I've seen about 2/3 of the first season on Amazon, but my sister is a big fan of the books. I'm liking this so far and look forward to more. *upvote*

Edit: I just realized that was a bit of a spoiler I wrote, does FimFiction have spoiler tags?

2346371 Haha, I was going for the sort of prologue that each of the books have, starting out with some guy just going about his daily life and then just ruining his day.

As for your question I've seen people use spoiler bars on Fimfiction in blog posts, but I'm not 100% sure that they're usable in comments, which seems odd since that's exactly where I'd want them myself.

And the Others invade Equestria...

It's going to be worse than the Necrons...

2346844 Quite possibly yes. A team of highly trained Brothers of the Night's Watch and Samwell Tarly will be making appearances though.

2346950

No Jon/Ghost then? Damn you...

At least we still have Doldorus Edd, right?

2346982 Oh Jon and Ghost will both definitely be apart of the team, I made sure to pick out a picture that had both of them in it for this story. Also Dolorous Edd is a part of the team as well, every story needs some comedy relief.

2347000

Doldorus Edd is the only character who will survive the character-reaping scythe that is GRRM.

It's good to hear that everyone's favourite brothers of the NW will be here, though.

YYYEEEEESSSSS! Lars approves of this very fine fic.:rainbowkiss::yay::moustache::pinkiehappy:

2347013 Eh, I won't say names but I couldn't realistically put too many NW brothers in the story. Originally the story was going to open following Pypar and the NW team, but I got rid of that idea entirely and the first NW chapter will show you the entire team.

2347045 Haha I KNEW that there had to be some ASOIAF fans on this site :pinkiehappy:

2347081
I finished a dance of dragons like forever ago so I'm impatiently waiting for the sixth book to come out but now I have this to sate my thirst with!:pinkiecrazy::heart:

2347090

The Winds of Winter- Coming out late 2121.

2347132>>2347113 :rainbowlaugh: I don't think it'll actually be that bad, I think the show is gonna make GRRM hurry up. Plus he already gave the full outline for the series to his son and the people at HBO, then there's the fact that you can read the first few chapters of book six online already. I'm not worried at all, I'm just gonna write a story with ponies in the meantime.

I'm not entirely sure if want...

2348564 Any particular reason? Something you don't like?

2349452 I've been waiting for a crossover with this series, but I can't help but wonder if it's any good. The only way to find out is to read it, I realize, but I have around100 other stories to read.

I guess I'm afraid that it'll suck.

2350205 Well I can definitely understand being worried about a crossover you're interested in sucking, I personally am not a huge fan of any of the site's Dishonored stories. All I can say is that the next two chapters are coming out soon, and that the second chapter has some exposition to introduce some important story aspects that people who haven't read any of the books or watched the show may need. So all I can do is ask you to stay around till the third chapter and ask for your feedback then.

I'm assuming you've already read the first chapter too, any feedback on it? Something that shakes your confidence in me as a writer? Anything to just improve upon in general?

2350303 Haven't read it yet, I have a lot more things ahead of this in my cue... I'll give it a read soon though.

It is pretty good, I never watched game of thrones, I've only played the game. Which the game sucked. Anyways, this read pretty well, in fact it is way different from most of the stuff I read. An interesting writing style too, it's so different. Alright now with all that out of the way, there are a few things you need to look out for. Describe the characters actions a little better. There were instances where they seemed to just sit still for an extended period of time. Like when Caramel would have a long thought about the situation. One other thing, you might wanna rewrite that last bit. I's kind of confusing, I don't understand what killed him, and the way it's described is a little off. Besides that, congrats on your first story. I like it, and I'll be sure to be a little more timely in a response. :rainbowlaugh:

Final Verdict: Good! I fucking hated Caramel anyways!

2353279 You are a brave soul for trying to take on one of the Games of Thrones games, they were made in the very pits of hell. I would definitely recommend the TV show and books though, it's like Lord of the Rings except without elves and WAY more character death.

Thanks for the compliment too, I'm trying to go for the same style that the books have. Also Caramel had it coming, always fucking everything up, he's the REAL reason Sweet Apple Acres fell apart in Magical Mystery Cure.

More importantly though thanks for the criticism, it's nice getting upvotes and positive comments, but criticism is just as important. I'll be sure to rewrite the ending to this chapter ASAP to make it less confusing for new readers.

On a note totally irrelevant to your comment though, we are now both gold apparently.

2353506 I have no fucking clue what that means... I didn't pay for shit... all this gold business.

2353521 Well apparently knighty is gone and some new guy is in charge, I think this is some sort of weird April Fools joke.

2353553 Indeed, but whatever, even if knighty leaves I won't be that sad.

2353569 Eh, he made a free website that works pretty well. Sucks if he's gone but life goes on.

2353658 Yeah, he did, but this site wouldn't really disappear.

Hey, so I am a huge fan of this series, books and tv show. This isnt bad, Imma track it and also what time in the books does this take place, or is it going to just be alt universe. the main reaon I ask is *spoiler* that there is something that happens in book five that would keep Jon from being in this

2356043 It's an alternate universe, set in the time frame of book two. The differences will be given an explanation next chapter, it's actually pretty easy to change the NW team from book two.

will appear any character of the tv series? i saw the two first seasons, but i haven't read any of the books of a Song of Ice and Fire and i'm happy to see a Game of Thrones related fiction :pinkiehappy:

Also, BEWARE OF THE EVIL DAMNED RABBIT OF THE EVERFREE FOREST :pinkiecrazy:

2375187 Yes, all of the characters I have planned for the story are in the tv show, there's a few things in the book that are different in the tv show but nothing in this story that should be confusing if you've at least watched the show.

Also Wight Bunnys ain't nothin ta fuck wit' :flutterrage:

the story look promising...but i will only read it when it will have more chapter

2455848 It's coming out within the next week or so. I had to put it on hold for a bit because college athletics started eating up all my free time outside of class and work, but spring season ends this weekend, so I'll be able to put the finishing touches on the next two chapters and post them soon.

seriously. why does this not have more exposure? this is brilliant.

2590382

Life isn't fair, and shitty fics/clop get featured 24/7 while good fics like this stay hidden for no reason. It can be incredibly frustrating at times.

When will the next chapter come out :( it's been almost two months in like 1 week :fluttercry:

2591516 Haha, I finished writing it at one point but scrapped it because I didn't like how it turned out. Then finals happened and now I got kicked out of my apartment and won't have much time to write for the rest of the week. The next chapter is coming soon though, I have it about 2/3 written.

2591351>>2590382 Eh, there's obviously some A Song of Ice and Fire fans on the site, but not a whole ton, I'm gonna send this to EQD after I post a few more chapters to try and get some more views.

2632931 Thanks, the next chapter will be up soon.

2347144>>2347132 Ehm guys,dont want to make you all cry but GRRM has said that he may not actually finish WoW (winds of winter not the other thing) because of other stuff and the show. He has told the show producers how it ends just incase he goes to visit R'hllor because hes the only good God the others dont do anything!

It's just the core market in this site. A lot of people seem to really like romance. I for one (being an ADD, socially awkward guy) don't like romance, I prefer either balls-to-the wall action, an intriguing plot, or a complex environment. Or all three if better.

These stories usually take their time to launch. It sure is doing better than my story, I started in February and have ten chapters. But my view count is still below 200

I think being a crossover helps.

2634631

I get what you're saying, and I know, but it still happens too much. And I'm socially awkward too but I can enjoy romance if it's really well done... but, it's just BS in my opinion. Take from it what you will.

2634618 I saw that too, he's prepared to hand the books over to his son if he passes away as his son has actually written several portions of the fourth and fifth books respectively.

2634631>>2634653 Being a crossover definitely helps, it gives me a built-in audience for my story so I can get feedback way more easily. I specifically decided to write two crossovers as my first two stories because then I can get the most feedback possible before I start writing solely MLP fics(I'm not ready to publish the other crossover yet).

And on the topic of the feature box I'm honestly disappointed in what it's turned into. When I first joined the site there was almost always good fics in it, I would be excited to check it and see what was new on the site. Now it's become storage space for the latest clopfics and whatever the newest fic from some big name author is.

It's like this site stopped being populated by people who browse through the stories and search for something they might like, and started being filled with horny teenagers and the fans of big authors. I like some of the big name authors, but the lack of variety in the feature box has basically made me stop checking it when I come on.

2634653

I like romance, but I think of it as a condiment. It needs to be included with something else. Take Gentleman J's Journey of Graves, it features a coldblooded soldier capable of of action and still manages to learn how to swoon women ( or just one as is the case.). And that means taking the time to create a plausible scenario. That series is actually my favorite.

I live in Mexico, where T.V. pretty much includes the worst stories known to man, which always involve cheap romance. Maybe I just don't know real romance. Who knows.

2634825

Agreed, it's usually only one fic out of ten that's good in the feature box, instead of most, like before.

I am going to be very disappointed of Celestia or Twilight doesn't impale Joffery with the horn. Though great chapter, was unsure about the dream bit at first, yet it was actually very well done. Also wee small thing, It is a bit weird that the ponies speak westerosi though it will certainly make some entertaining comments. Oh God Danny and Spike :rainbowlaugh: looking forward to that, keep it up m8

2670751 Thanks, anything you liked in particular?

2671944 You'll be surprised in the future my friend, this story only just begun.
