George R.R. Martin Quote

Jon Snow, is this a proper castle now? Not just a tower?It is. Jon took her hand.Good, she whispered. I wanted t’ see one proper castle, before … before I …You’ll see hundred castles. The battle’s done. Maester Aemon will see to you. You’re kissed by fire, remember? Lucky. It will take more than an arrow to kill you. Aemon will draw it out and patch you up, and we’ll get milk of the poppy for the pain.She just smiled at that. D’you remember that cave? We should have stayed in that cave. I told you so.We’ll go back to the cave, he said. You’re not going to die, Ygritte. You’re not.Oh. Ygritte cupped his cheek with her hand. You know nothing, Jon Snow, she sighed, dying.
