That way, Jon will know the truth of his parentage, and Sansa will know that Lyanna most likely ran away with Rhaegar. House Stark has often been critcised in universe and out universe for choosing their hearts desire over what society tells them, or choozing honor over duty. There are people who think that Ned should have bent to knee to Joffrey, there are people who think Robb should never have rebelled, there are those who think Robb should have kept his promise to Walder Frey. There are people who say that if any of that had happened, countless lives could have been saved. There are even those who wanted Ramsay to defeat Jon.

You know what I say to all of that? You'd rather bend the knee to a tyrant? You'd rather see people be unhappy with what society tells them to do? You'd rather be a slave? Inawar sacrifices and losses are innevitable. Yes. I actually would (except the slave part), because that's real life for you and we can't stand against our country's government and hope that we will possibly come out victorious by taking the whole society down! In real life people who rebel or do whatever the Starks did in the show - don't live very long and are either hunted down and executed or imprisoned for life.

And this is one of the reasons why I want Starks dead! So you hate good honorable people? One thing I like about this show is that is has some strong females but what I hate is they kill off the decent, moral men. Like Ned and Robb. So glad Jon didn't stay dead! And no, I'd rather be dead than bend the knee to a tyrant. And I don't do what most of society tells me to. I have a backbone and a good set of morals. I kinda feel sorry for you. I never said I follow what society does, I just pretend to so they turn the blind eye, but I wouldn't hesitate to eliminate them if and when the opportunity presents itself.

Men like Ned, Robb and Jon deserve to die, did they forgot that this game of thrones? No one cares about your honor - it's victory or death in all of Westeros.

It may be tradition for Starks to have honor above all else but if that's the case they most surely don't know other houses and people as well as they think they do.
