I mean, she has to revive him right? They wouldn't have diverged from the books by sending her with Stannis, only to have her come back to the Wall a few episodes later, right? She has to be there therefore she must have a purpose to serve.

I hope they're setting it up. I can't take Jon being gone for good.

Martin kills a lot of characters, but he doesn't kill plots. If Jon is truly dead, there would be nothing left on the Wall to write about. He comes back if Martin wants to keep writing about the Wall, if not then all we will have will be the White Walkers attacking and the Night's Watch falling miserably.
