Chapter 78

The fall of the meteorite emerged as the compelling cause behind the Long Night, substantiating why this millennia-long winter enveloped the world. The impact of the meteorite, striking both land and sea, resulted in the vaporization of matter and everything in its path. The aftermath cast particles into the atmosphere, saturating it for a prolonged period during that ancient era. Numerous histories bore witness to such catastrophic events, echoing tales of devastation across the ages.

Consider House Dayne, whose ancestry traced back to following a star to Westeros. They forged a magical sword from a blood meteor stone, closely linked to the legendary Lightbringer wielded during the Long Night. The Bloodstone Emperor, who ruled during this dark period in the Empire of the Dawn, was said to worship a meteorite, earning him the title of the Bloodstone Emperor. The Azor Ahai legend, intertwined with the current Red God, narrates the moon cracking when Lightbringer is forged and thrust into the heart of Nissa Nissa. Another legend from Qarth speaks of the moon cracking during a solar eclipse, caused by its proximity to the sun, akin to an egg cracking from the heat. This event is considered the origin of dragons, drawing a parallel between comets, meteorites, and dragons.

Prophecies and lore further entwine the narrative. The prophecy of Azor Ahai's rebirth is linked to the appearance of a red comet, while Melisandre foretells that when stars bleed, the Long Night approaches—a prophecy potentially related to a meteor shower. The plethora of histories and theories dismiss the notion that the Long Night is solely tied to the Great Others.

The missing piece lies in understanding whether the appearance of meteorites is tied to magic or is merely a natural disaster. If it is related to magic, the question arises: who wielded such dark and powerful magic? Could the Old Ones have played a role in the descent of meteorites, solidifying their status as god-like beings, whether or not they sacrificed living beings to achieve this cataclysmic event? Unveiling this connection may unravel the mysteries of the ancient past and the cosmic forces that shaped the destiny of the world.

During this time, emissaries from Yi Ti arrived at King's Landing with the hope of finding Bahamut. Given their origin from Yi Ti, Aegon graciously extended hospitality, taking into consideration the current situation within the realm. They were informed that Bahamut had departed for urgent matters but would return once these matters were resolved. In reality, Aegon was unaware of the impending threat posed by the White Walkers in the North. He remained oblivious to Bahamut's sudden departure, hoping that no dire news would arise during his absence.

Among the newcomers from Yi Ti, there were peculiar individuals with golden eyes and towering statures, reaching an impressive 7 to 8 feet—an anomaly somehow linked to the mysterious Island Lengi. Meanwhile, Rhaenys and Daenerys were already in proximity to Pentos, yet their progress was hindered by Rhaenys' pregnancy, which slowed their journey.

Bahamut advanced slowly toward the Wall, his keen awareness informing him of Jon's current predicament—he was in the clutches of the Wildlings, being taken to the King Beyond the Wall to decide his fate. Determined to intercept Jon before he reached the Wildling camp, Bahamut faced a hindrance in the form of Aithusa's presence. Accompanied by the smaller dragon, Bahamut couldn't reach maximum speed, slowing his progress.

Despite this impediment, Bahamut managed to arrive at the Wildling camp just before Jon Snow entered the tent to meet Mance Rayder, the King Beyond the Wall. As Bahamut descended, a colossal shadow fell over the camp, instilling new fear in the hearts of the Wildlings—fear distinct from that of the White Walkers. The people felt a desire to scream, yet an unseen force restrained their voices.

Among the Wildlings, Jon recognized the ominous silhouette casting its shadow, realizing with a mix of awe and concern, "A strange dragon." The unexpected arrival of Bahamut left the camp in a state of silent astonishment, with Jon Snow standing at the center of an unfolding mystery.
