        They're undead already to be fair. So scuba gear probably isn't required.

        So wights have enough understanding of basic engineering to attach the chains to the correct spots?

        It seems the night king has similar powers to bran, he could order them to do whatever he wants hypothetically speaking...

        Hey, that's not how suspension of disbelief works. You still have to create a consistent setting even in a fantasy world.

        I like science fiction and I like fantasy. The great part about them is that they're separate genres. I use fantasy to escape reality
