- Bran states that the leaders of the mountain clans are not really lords, and that only in Winterfell they are called this way.
- Bran, Hodor and the Reeds meet a man from the mountain clans that Bran identifies as a Liddle because of the pinecone-shaped gold and bronze clasp fastening his cloak. He shares oatcakes, blood sausage and ale, without asking their names nor giving his.
- Maester Aemon sent birds to most noble houses from the North asking for help to fight the Wildlings at the gate, including the Liddles.
