*sits bolt upright in bed* what if howland reed has lyanna’s wedding cloak
#cos like#as much as we will benefit from magic exposition a la bran#for the rest of Westeros they’re gonna need more than a spooky child to believe this shit#and of course Howland’s testimony is a great start#a respected lord and known friend of Ned stark who was there when they found lyanna at the end of the rebellion#but even then we need cold hard facts#especially if this info is gonna be used to make a claim for Jon’s ‘legitimacy’ outside of robb’s will#what better way to do both than something that could ‘prove’ they got married#course we then get into ‘this fucker was still married to elia’ territory#but even just for Jon’s sake#‘here is something that belonged to your mother that you can hold in your hands - you’re welcome’#if stuff like that existed I can’t see Ned taking it with him to winterfell#but I can’t see him leaving it in Dorne? unless he left it at starfall#who better than to give it to the little crannogman?#who would go looking for dragons in the marshes?#and that’s not just the cloak like anything that proves they were together/ had a baby#letters clothing sigils children’s toys#that’s if Martin wants to ‘confirm’ jon was always legit#Tho I’m not against keeping it ambiguous/ outright keeping him a bastard#cos for the book purposes the main significance of Jon’s parentage is generally ‘this dude could befriend a dragon and not get crispy-fried’#at least as a sheer plot thing#(not thinking of all the endless character stuff it can bring *cough cough*d&d *cough*)#legitimacy is a messy thing anyway i do agree a lot of Jon’s significance as a character is proving his worth beyond if his parents married#still 👀👀👀 I am thinking 👀👀👀👀#shut up min#winds of winter speculation#asoiaf#jon snow
