There's no sense of the Lonely, but he does feel like he's being watched. That's just par for the course, though, and something he attributes to Jon's ambient... aura. If something is about to start chasing them, Martin sorely regrets giving up his connection to the Lonely. He could shroud himself and Jon, keep them safe.]
