A Game of Thrones

Wallen and Stiv travel south of the Wall with Osha, Hali, and two unnamed wildling men. The group attempts to rob Bran Stark when the boy is left unattended during a hunt in the wolfswood. However, Robb Stark arrives with Summer and Grey Wind. When Wallen grabs the reins of Bran's horse, Dancer, he is knocked into a stream by Grey Wind and killed by the direwolf. After Bran has been saved, Robb orders his guards to hack off the heads of the fallen so they can be sent to the Wall, with their bodies left behind for carrion crows.[1]

Bran recalls the day that Osha was taken, when Summer and Grey Wind killed her three wildling companions,[2] although Wallen and Stiv were actually Night's Watch deserters.[1]
