Later Meera manages to defeat the direwolf [[Summer (direwolf)|Summer]] using a net and frog spear. Bran claims that Summer won, but then Jojen points out that Summer is tangled up in the net and cannot escape. After Bran does a mock fight with Summer, he asks her if she was taught to fight by their Master at Arm, and she tells him that Graywater Watch has no knights, master at arms, maester, or ravans; ravans and the Reeds’ enemies cannot find Graywater because it moves (although many have tried). Bran has never heard of the castle that moves. He asks her if he can visit Graywater after the conflict, and she tells him that he can come then or now (he has never been away from Winterfell). Jojen tells Bran that everyone in the Castle hears him scream when he sleeps, and asks about what frightens him. As Jojen questions Bran and pushes him to admit he has the wolf dreams, Bran gets agitated, which causes Summer to get agitated, and start to act aggressively towards Jojen. Meera tells her brother the climb the tree, but he initially refuses, telling her it is not yet his time to die. When [Shaggy Dog] joins Summer, they both start to attack, and Jojen finally climbs the GodsWood, Meera following him. Only after Hodar arrives to chase the direwolves away at Bran’s instruction, they can climb down.{{Ref|aCoK|28}}

She is also with Jojen and Bran as they play a game of tiles and discus the dreams.
