“Bear Island,” he says, watching her agitation, “is under the rule of a girl of twelve. His cousin — Lady Lyanna. I don’t know that she will have him, but if she will….”

A shrug. Daenerys had seemed happy to see Mormont, though it had also been clear, through and through, that the man was in love with her, and that she did not return his feelings. Something had happened to change her feelings towards Mormont, from this kind of loathing to the warm acceptance he had witnessed, but Jon couldn’t say what. She hadn’t told him. So if Daenerys has questions about it now, he cannot answer them.

“I don’t know all that has passed for you between your time in Meereen and your arrival on Dragonstone.”
