They thought they were the masters of the world. They were wrong. For four hundred years, the Kingdom of High-Hold has ruled supreme. They have tamed theforests, chained the mountains, and silenced the magic of old. They believe their walls areunbreakable. They believe their iron is absolute. But in the frozen peaks of the North, a mistake has been made. A line has been crossed. Something has awakened-something older than crowns and stronger than steel.
It does notseek gold. It does not seek territory. It cannot be reasoned with, and it cannot be bought. As a shadow begins to blot out the stars and the ground trembles with a rhythm that stopshearts, the King and his Grandmasters realize too late that they are not fighting a war. Theyare facing a force of nature. The Age of Man is loud. But the silence is coming.
