Nobody stops to think, Hey Jon, this dickless count is leaving with his army, never to return......just hang out here and once he’s across the horizon, your good.


My take on this is different. It was negotiated with Grey Worm that Jon would be banished to the Black forever. Grey Worm doesn’t know the story of the Black and they have nothing to defend. Tyrion knows Jon doesn’t want to be king and actually want to live beyond the wall.

It was a ploy to free Jon and place him where he wants to be and ease the tension of GW. That’s why Jon immediately lives the wall and travels with the wildlings.


Maybe I’m giving the writers too much credit. But I felt this was actually done right. Sansa queen of Winterfell. Bran king and Jon gets want he wants. How many times does Jon say he DOESN’T want to be king?

That's how I saw it as well.

I agree with that. I think he wanted to go live north of the wall.
