Old Nan tells Bran a Story. (Game of Thrones, ep. 3, Lord Snow). “Oh, my sweet summer child. What do you know about fear? Fear is for the winter, when the snows fall a hundred feet deep. Fear is for the long night, when the sun hides for years and children are born and live and die all in darkness. That is the time for fear, my little Lord, when the white walkers move through the woods. Thousands of years ago there came a night that lasted a generation. Kings froze to death in their castles, same as the shepherds in their huts. And women smothered their babies rather than see them starve, and wept and felt the tears freeze on their cheeks. So is this the sort of story that you like?”

*Robb Stark didn't knock. No courtesy.*
im going to shit my pants in season 8
does anybody know the accent of the old nan?
After this scene I went from "I don't care about this show" to "This is the best show ever and I need to read the books".
stil waiting for these ice spiders TBH.
maybe theyll show up in the final battle
holy shit nan didn't have to go that hard 😨😨
FOBI WATER FLOW
"I hate your stories."
"Well, I guess you want to go without a cup of warm milk and get bent over my knee then, you little ankle-biter."
Bran is Bran the Builder by going back in time greensearing, gets caught over the wall by the Children of the Forest and gets turned into the Night's King.
Old Nan is so so awesome she should tell me bed time stories I would love it!!!
Gods dammit Robb! I really wanted to hear the rest of the story!
grumbles Gods damned story cock-blockning twat! huffs
this is in the third episode and this monologue is what made me love the show.
I want Jon to give the same speech or something like it but starting with "what do you know about fear " cuz he's the only leader that really understands what's coming so him saying this to danny or Jamie would be dope
Bran. Always the whiny little b** who thinks he's all gangsta and thug, but realizes too late that he's bit off more than he can chew.
I can't wait to see the pale spiders.
Old Nan is fucking metal
Don't listen to it. Crows are all liars.
A massive foreshadowing for what was and is to come.
I love this scene! So well directed …. Isolating this moment you can hear this creepy music, ever so slowly creeping into focus… Awesome!
(Robb bursts in the room)
"I just want you to know I plan on dying at the Red Wedding."
(Robb leaves)
Oh man….. It obviously significant but we had zero context at the time… And now…. Yeeeeeeah!
Dammit Rob a little premature aren't you? She didn't finish the story. Although it was almost word for word in the book.
So… did that last winter cross over the then landbridge to ezzoz?
jeezis gram gram
Give it up for G.R.R Martin. He knows how to leave you wanting more!
The cold wind came blowing from the north, and made the trees rustle like living things, summer will end soon enough, and childhood as well.
"Oh my sweet summer child" <—me every time someones bein a lil bitch
"Don't listen to it, crows are all liars…" *Bran seeks for a big liar beyond the wall.*
"Oh my sweet summer child…"
My God she tells the story like she was old enough to be there. I felt fear building up watching this.
This is the only scene where I hated Robb Stark. I could've listened that story for hours.
