The Frozen Shore

The region is a vast ice sheet northwest of the Frozen Fangs, along the Bay of Ice; Lorn Point rises within it.

Its people travel in wagons built from walrus bones and pulled by packs of wild dogs, which is why they are known as the walrus men. They remain in constant conflict with the Ice River clans, who hold the northernmost stretch. There are also tales of local tribes who worship gods of ice and snow.

In the past, the Ironborn came to rule the entire Sunset Sea from this shore to the Thenns' Gap, and more than once wildlings from the area raided Bear Island.

During the reign of Dorren Stark, the Night's Watch ranger Redwyn came here and to Lorn Point with his companions; by his own account, they fought giants and traded with the children of the forest.

From a shipwreck on this coast came the scarlet Asshai silk that, years later, a mother passed to her daughter to mend Mance Rayder's cloak, when he was still a ranger of the Night's Watch.

Mance Rayder, who had spent years gathering a vast army, brought the walrus men of this coast to make peace with the cannibal clans of the great ice rivers.

Joined with the rest of the wildling clans, they gathered at the source of the Milkwater, at the foot of the glacier, and from there marched down the river's course into the Haunted Forest.

With Jon Snow now Lord Commander of the Night's Watch, wildlings from this coast were part of Tormund Giantsbane's group that struck a truce to cross the Wall.

Among them were the walrus men, led by one of their own known as the Great Walrus.
