Quote from GRRM:
"All of the Stark kids have certain links to the wolf. In Westeros there's a certain amount of identification of all these great houses to their signs, to the animal charges that they bear. For the Starks, it goes a little beyond that. Especially in this generation with these direwolves. It's more than just a handy metaphor with them."
Regarding Nymeria-
"In all my years the biggest pack I ever saw had fewer than a dozen wolves in it. But the great pack that prowls along the Trident now numbers in the hundreds."
Jate said the pack was led by a she-wolf of monstrous size. A Direwolf, to hear him tell it.
She says there's this great pack, hundreds of them, mankillers. The one that leads them is a she-wolf, a bitch from the seventh hell. No trap nor snare can hold her, she fears neither steel nor fire, she slays any wolf that tries to mount her, and devours no other flesh but man.
Arya:
I dreamed I was a wolf again.
Hey.
I'm just sayin'.
