House Frey is infamous for orchastrating the Red Wedding, however the books show that some of the Freys are decent and likeable people, not just Roslin. Good Freys in the books include Stevron, Perwyn, Amerei, Olyvar, Alesander, and others, mostly being women and children, with some grown up men and boys. And Walder has countless other unnamed children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Odds are some of them have to be decent people.

Now obviously there should still be some bad Freys who will try to continue Walder's work in putting down the rebellions of the other Riverland houses, but as of right now we don't know who the current Frey Lord is, and House Frey is likely too big to be completly wiped outt or exiled with so many members.

But this could set the stage for a Civil War among the Freys. Pro-Seven Kingdom Loyalists vs Pro-Kingdom of the North and/or Tully Nationalists. I also predict that the North is going to have to send some people(Presumably the Knights of the Vale) down to the Riverlands to rally the Brackens, Mallisters and Blackwoods and possibly try to rescue Edmure, Roslin and their son because the Riverlands boarders both the North and Vale, making it crucial that the Riverlands return to the Kingdom of the North. But what if a Pro-North and/or Pro-Tully Frey faction offers support as well? And even IF House Frey is exiled or wiped out, who will get the Twins?

Another benefit of a pro-North and/or Tully Frey faction is the possibility that Edmure's men and the other Riverland houses refuse to swear loyalty to Edmure for ordering them to stand down durring the Riverrun siege. If Edmure does not become Lord of the Riverlands, then law dictates that his son is now the Lord. But since he is a baby, Roslin will have to temporaily assume the regency herself until her son comes of age. And with a Pro-Tully and/or North Frey faction in the Twins, Roslin would have more support until her son comes of age and assumes the Lordship himself.
