Jojen Reed carries a gift the crannogmen of the Neck have kept alive longer than most of Westeros credits them for: true green dreams, visions that come to him unbidden and, so far as the record shows, without exception prove accurate. A single dream of a winged wolf bound in chains was enough to send his father dispatching both his children north to Winterfell, and further dreams since have guided Jojen's steps with a certainty that unsettles even the greenseer-in-training he has been sent to help. He is smaller and frailer than his elder sister Meera, and knows it, but carries a kind of grim composure about his own visions that reads less like courage than like a boy who has already seen how his part in this ends. A maester records, with the discomfort proper to his order, that a green dreamer's foresight is among the few gifts north of the Neck the Citadel has never managed to convincingly dismiss.
