As far as a Northern alliance goes I ask you this. What North? The north is battered broken and bloody already. What will be left once Stannis and the Boltons play out their feud? But if you absolutely need a northern tie how about a certain Ser Jorah Mormont? One of the last living knights of the north and the last living son to the once proud house Mormont. Until a Stark returns to winterfell there is no north. And even when a stark returns do you honestly think they side with Littlefinger? The man who betrayed Ned Stark and left him short by head?

Very good point, but I'm thinking they may join briefly with Littlefinger until they find out that Rickon is alive. Littlefinger will then try to poison him or bribe a member of Ramsay Bolton's party to do it. Sansa will kill him over it before he is able to implement it. I don't expect Littlefinger to make it past the 6th novel.

And I love Jorah Mormont retaking control of Bear Island through Dany and perhaps finding someone else who actually loves the North that he could have to keep happy.
