Death of The Hound
A character I love a lot is the Hound. Watching his evolution from scumbag to anti-hero has been great to watch. The Hound will die before the end of season 8 and I want him to have a glorious death. So here we go. How I would kill The Hound.
Side Note: Jon is using the sword Dawn at this point since he was deemed worthy to wield it. In turn Jon gifts Longclaw to the Hound. It is a big ass sword and a big man should use it.
Fast Forward to a point in the story where the Night King has somehow crossed the Wall and is headed south to Winterfell. Jon and the northern army takes a page out of the Spartans playbook and leads the WW army into a narrow pass where there overwhelming numbers can be neutralized.
The plan has slowed the WW army down but eventually they begin to break through the northern army’s defenses. Jon, Tormund and the next of the army retreat while the Brotherhood without Banners and some wildlings constitute a last stand and are willing to fight to the death to give time for the rest of the army time to regroup.
Beric with his sword of fire, The Hound with Longclaw, and the rest of the men armed with iron and dragonglass. Unleash fury on the wright army hacking and slashing with no end. They fight valiantly but are eventually overwhelmed until the last living man left is the Hound. Knowing this is the end the Hound is in full berserk mode. Taking out two wrights with every slash. His carnage is attracts so much attention that a couple White Walker soldiers engage the Hound. Exhausted the Hound fights on swinging Longclaw with everything he has taking down the pair of Walkers.
With the Walkers defeated the Hound takes a couple seconds to catch his breath when he notices nobody is engaging him anymore and the wrights are all just staring at him from a distance of about 15 feet away. Until a figure steps forward from the hoard. It is the Night King himself. Gearing up for another fight the Hound steps towards the NK and begins his attack.
The Night King doesn’t draw his weapon instead casually dodges the Hound’s attacks. 4 then 5 of the Hounds swings catch nothing but air. Finally, the Night King raises his sword of ice. The NK blocks every one of the Hound advances with ease. Then with one quick swipe of his sword of ice the NK dismembers the Hound’s arm at the elbow. Longclaw falls to the ground and the Hound is on his knees in pain.
With victory in hand the NK raises his sword above his head and glares at his army. However, unwittingly the NK lets his defenses down for a split second thinking the Hound is no longer a threat. It is in this instant the Hound raises back to his feet. Grabbing the Night King by his neck and head butting him square in his frozen nose. Stunned the Night King loses his balance and falls on his back. With one last act of defiance the Hound with a mouth full of blood and saliva spits on the face of the NK and gives his last words “Fuck you, you pointy headed cunt”
Enraged the Night King leaps back to his feet. His stoic glare is gone. An ungodly shrieking sound comes out of the NK’s mouth. Filled his angry and disgust and Night King facial expressions actually look human for a couple moments. With one quick swipe the NK decapitates the Hound. This mortal with not be coming back as a wright. The Night King wants nothing more to do this man.
The End
I am sure my narrative has holes but I think it captures the essence of how I would like the Hound to die.
