How come Ned never told Cat the truth about Jon?


Robert was Ned's best friend, yet he would have killed Jon instantly had he known he was Jon Targaryen. I get some would say he was a bastard. BUT. Lyana was protected by three kingsguard. I doubt kingsguard would leave king's kin to die to protect a high born bastard. So I think Rhaegar secretly took a second wife as it ha been done before in the Targaryen line. Lyanna made Ned promise to never tell another soul. A promise he probably had to break five minutes later with Howland Reed having to ask why he came out with a baby and his sister's dead body (she was buried in the Winterfell Crypt)

a baby



you sure it was only one? the amount of blood in the bed could mean that she had twins...

ned kept one (lyanna's son) and he gave the other (a girl) to Howland Reed - who named her Meera.

The girl they casted for Meera does look an awful lot like Jon in the show.

Both Meera and Jon were born in 283AL according to the wiki

The actress cast as Meera looks similar to Jon Snow in appearance

Howland Reed could have taken her back to Greywater Watch from Dorne

Easy to hide someone at Greywater Watch

Meera never visited Winterfell until Jon Snow was in the NW

Alfie Allen commented that Jon snows parentage was a 'Star Wars Situation'

Birthing twins is much more dangerous for the mother.

If the Dragon needs three heads it could be Meera, Jon & Dany. You would not need Aegon or Tyrion to have Targaryen blood

could have been, the amount of blood was also probably the reason she was dying. Could have been a bad birth.

But damn, if Meera is Jons sister than we don't need Dany. lol

It is said in the books though that Meera looks like how a cronangnon man should look and has green eyes, which aren't Stark or Targaryen features.

don't they practice some pretty weird magic? if they can constantly change where they are to remain hidden, is it that far fetched that they can disguise their true features?

And Jon could have an Aegon the Conqueror type situation where he reconciles the Seven Kingdoms and makes Meera and Dany his queens

green eyes is the only real wrench

Let's assume the Knight of the Laughing Tree was Lyanna.
quote:


Lyanna is:
small in stature
has no armour of her own
needs to diguise her voice and her face
is an expert rider, said to be more than half horse (we are told that jousting is 90% horsemanship or something similar, and saw Loras beat Gregor through horsemanship)
already fought the three squires and beat them once
fights regularly with her brothers, against her fathers wishes
has affiliation to weirwoods

Alfie definitely did say that, I saw the interview on youtube. But why would GRRM tell Alfie and not Kit??

GRRM told Alfie because he asked about it if I recall.

Regarding the Star Wars remark, I've always wondered what that could possibly mean. I'm assuming he means like Luke finding out that Vader was his father. So wouldn't that mean that Jon Snow would find out someone he didn't like and was a rival was his real father?

Ser Allister Thorne...


or, even better, Janos Slynt. That would make for quite the surprise.

I'm sure he'd react so well to that .

With the Star Wars parallel, it could still be who we all think it is--ETA: Rhaegar

What? This is the crackpot theory thread.

To me a Star Wars moment revealing Jon's parents would be Cercei as his mother or maybe Tywin as his father, etc. I guess Rhaegar could be seen in that way too but it wouldn't be that shocking

Oh, I thought it was the Book Reader Episode thread.

I need to watch out for which threads I post in, otherwise I'll be banned with the quickness if I accidentally go into a Hodor thread.
