When Theon Greyjoy is being tortured by Ramsay Snow, Ramsay forces Theon to play a guessing game of their location. Theon guesses Last Hearth, but is ultimately incorrect and after another wrong guess, Ramsay flays Theon's little finger. ​Bran Stark decides that he must go north of the Wall with Hodor, Meera, and Jojen Reed and realizes that his younger brother Rickon Stark cannot go with him. To keep Rickon safe, he instructs him to leave with Osha and Shaggydog and attempt to reach the relative safety of Last Hearth.
