Jon Snow has been chosen as the 998th Lord Commander of the Night's Watch. He is struggling with the immense burden of command, dealing with the aftermath of the battle with the wildlings and the arrival of Stannis Baratheon. He is forced to make difficult decisions about how to feed and house the king's men and the wildling prisoners, while also managing the internal politics of the Watch. He feels isolated and misses his friends Sam and Maester Aemon, who have been sent away.
