And Now My Watch Begins

Description

"Night gathers, and now my watch begins.
It shall not end until my death.
I shall take no wife, hold no lands, father no children.
I shall wear no crowns and win no glory.
I shall live and die at my post.
I am the sword in the darkness.
I am the watcher on the walls.
I am the shield that guards the realms of men.
I pledge my life and honor to the Night's Watch,
for this night and all the nights to come."

Hello,
After everything is over, I imagine House Mormont to be the warden of the North. Starks are gone, Targaryens are gone... at least, by their folks. :(

So Mormonts left Bear Island, rebuild a castle from the remains of Winterfell. And they ruled with justice and lucidity.
Many years later, when everything is in order Ser Jorah knew it's time for him to hand over his sovereignty and join the Night's Watch. His foster child little Sam cried like a baby when Jorah told him his decision.

Following his father's footsteps Ser Jorah Mormont head to the North. Where it's tought grumkins and snarks are lurking in shadows in days of yore...


And this is probably never going to be happening. :) I know, a death scene for Ser Jorah- a sacrifice maybe, seems more fitting to his final moments. As we all know, this is Game of Thrones and sad but true -Valar Morghulis.

But still, I could not imagine his story ending by his death. He's probably the most loyal person in Game of Thrones and loyalty should mean something.

Long live Ser Jorah Mormont! I know it's kinda a dead end but I really hope you endure somehow!❄🗡🔥

This is truly a haunting yet eerily beautiful piece. Jorah standing over what was a massive battlefield piled with corpses. But the years and climate since then have given the North its natural beauty back. And with the additions of dragons roaming around, it's a sign that they're here to stay...
The detail is absolutely gorgeous, especially the scaly texture and weather effects on the dragon...       :wow: 
It's perfect...
