And so, I just realized we got so caught up in the snow and praying that we all missed something pretty important. Sansa's time lapse. She enters the garden and poof , she's gone. Where did she go? She comes to a while later on her knees not knowing how she got there. What??? What happened? Did she pray and not know it? Did Lady take over? Was she playing with Lady in the snow? Where was Sansa?
Yes--we've got Tree-Bran touching Ghost-Jon turning into a whoosh! Wildling camp! And Bran himself whooshes into the trees. Bran, Jon, and Arya have wolf dreams.
But Sansa--she hasn't had lost time before this, right? I can't think of anything but am happy to be corrected. So--is this her "whoosh?" Am wondering if the lack of memory is because she went to Lady. Like Bran and Rickon went to the crypts to see Ned--independent of each other. Sansa goes to her other self. And, since Lady is dead--we've seen how disorienting warging is at first for Jon and Bran. If you go into your dead wolf--am thinking the disorientation might be more intense.
Full disclosure: I really think Sansa's still connected to her wolf, so that could very well be coloring my interpose.

Good questions. Winterfell is a good starting point. Lady is there and so is the Heart tree. Could she have escaped, momentarily, through her dim third eye? Sansa is a warg after all. What else was there when Sansa zoned out? Snow and winter and the end of the night. Was Sansa floating on the cold winter winds? She came back to her conciousness with the dawn. Did she make a connection with a nearby animal while her mind wandered? Possibly, possibly. Or she was only daydreaming. Which is a boring possibility yet fits Sansa in her mood that morning. I like to think it was a bit more than that.

I like the "escaped momentarily"--she does want an escape. And with her consciousness coming back at dawn--both Jon and Bran say their wolves come back to them at dawn. They often enter their wolves at night--during a hunt. So, what you describe--would fit. And, since Lady is in the realm of the dead, not going on a hunt to taste blood. Going. . . .to see? to hear? this could be very interesting once Sansa starts remembering what's happened. Once she realizes it's not a dream.
