A Clash of Kings Chapter 35 Summary

How It All Goes Down

Jon IV

  • Next stop on Jon's tour beyond the Wall is the Fist of the First Men.
  • Mormont orders the rangers to make camp and wait for Qhorin Halfhand to find them.
  • Jon serves hot wine while Mormont and his officers plan their strategy. The commander orders them to strengthen the defense of the Fist rather than meet Mance at Frostfangs.
  • After the meeting, Jon leaves and calls Ghost to him, but the direwolf leaves.
  • Jon follows. Ghost leads him to a hidden cache of obsidian daggers—or dragonglass, as it's called in Westeros.
  • In the cache, Jon also finds the cloak of a Night's Watch ranger.
