In the ancient tales of the Long Night, there was no Night Queen beside the Night King may be others doesn't even have a ruler and the Night King himself is more of a legend, akin to Lann the Clever and Brandon the Builder was considered a figure of lore, unlikely to have survived through the ages. But the Night Queen's tale is different and her origin lies in the shadow lands.
She is no ordinary woman but Nissa Nissa the Ice Priestess, the wife of Azor Ahai, the one destined to wield the powerful sword, Lightbringer. In a desperate bid to defeat the darkness of the Great Other, Azor Ahai sacrificed Nissa Nissa by plunging the sword into her heart. However, instead of meeting her demise, she somehow underwent a transformative process, becoming a magical being infused with the icy essence
Much like Melisandre, a wielder of fire magic, Nissa Nissa became an entity of ice magic. Her powers were mysterious, alien, and potentially perilous. Her singular focus revolved around the desire to bring about a second Long Night, a realm without end, in alignment with the intentions for which she was sacrificed.
She become legendary consort of Night's King from the Age of Heroes earning name Corpse Queen. According to legend, Night's King in the series lived during the Age of Heroes, not long after the Wall was complete. He was a fearless warrior who served as the thirteenth Lord Commander of the Night's Watch. After viewing the white-skinned woman from atop the Wall, he chased and loved her. Night's King brought her back to the Nightfort and after the unholy union, he declared himself king and her his queen.
Night's King ruled the Nightfort as his own castle for thirteen years. During the dark years of his reign, horrific atrocities were committed, of which tales are still told in the north. It was not until Brandon the Breaker, the King of Winter, and Joramun, the King-Beyond-the-Wall, joined forces that Night's King was brought down and the Night's Watch freed. After his fall, when it was discovered that Night's King had been making sacrifices to the Others, all records of him were destroyed and his very name was forbidden and forgotten.
In truth, Night's King had given his soul and seed to Nissa Nissa, the Corpse Queen. She, in turn, birthed adult White Shadows, later known as White Walkers. Unlike Melisandre, her White Shadows remained eternal, sustained by sacrificing Night's Watchmen. Corpse Queen transformed Night's King into an existence purely made of ice, ensuring his presence until her ultimate goal was achieved.
As the strength of the Corpse Queen grew beyond the Wall, Brandon the Breaker, the King of Winter, and Joramun united to force Night's King and Queen beyond the Wall. The real power beyond the Wall lay with the Corpse Queen, who could traverse the world without resistance from the Wall's magic, unlike Night's King. She became an unstoppable force, an existence that defied the magical barriers of the Great Wall.
As Bahamut neared The Sorrow, a grey smoke enveloped him, rendering his vision useless. To navigate through the haze, he decided to take on his human form and landed on the riverbank. Determined to explore the ruins of Sorrows, he started walking, aware of the shadows closing in on him.
Undead stonemen emerged from the mist, their eerie screams echoing through the air. With a swift conjuration of fire, Bahamut thwarted their advance, incinerating the approaching shadows. However, their numbers multiplied, creating a relentless horde. To maintain a safe distance, Bahamut ascended into the sky, casting flames down upon the stonemen.
The flames scattered, igniting the stone figures and filling the mist with the chilling echoes of their agonizing screams. Undeterred, Bahamut pressed forward, floating towards the Palace of Sorrow, once known as the Palace of Love. The eerie atmosphere of The Sorrow and the haunting cries of the stonemen created an unsettling ambiance as Bahamut continued his journey through the ancient ruins.
