I predicted pretty much everything that happened. It is now confirmed the new king in the North is Jon Targaeryan-Stark.

Pockets, didnt many people predict this?

If hadnt seen all the fan theories Im not sure I would understand what happened there. They made it seem like Ned Stark had a child with his sister.

Yes this theory has been hinted since Season 1 but no... I mean, Ned arrived when she was just giving birth after she was kidnapped by the dragon prince Rhaegar Targaryen. She was kidnapped for months / a year.

Some people may see it that it was incest (cause Cercei and Jaime's precedent is in people's minds) but no, he is the song of ice and fire, half wolf half dragon.

His name would be Jon Stark Targaryen. If he wasn't a Bastard!

Not really because his father is a Targaryen. Father name goes first always. Since his father was the main descendant and righful owner of the throne, guess who is the rightful king of Westeros? Jon not Daenerys, just because he is a man. Daenerys is Jon's aunt.

No. Jon Snow will never have a claim to the throne because he is a member of the Night's Watch. Life long appointment regardless if he walks away or not.

The High Sparrow thought he was a match for Cersei Lannister.

When he was killed by his brothers his watch ended. Since the current lord commander of the night's watch witnessed this and is one of Jon's best friends, I doubt they will judge him on that.

The only way you can quit the watch its if you die, he did.

he is still a bastard so his name is still Jon snow

And no, being a bastard in Westeros doesnt mean born out of wedlock... it means your royal blood parent got laid with a commoner so you are a bastard, a half blood. When people realize who his father/mother was he will no longer be called a bastard, he will be called "your grace".

Doesn't matter. There is no way he can prove his true bloodline.

We don't know that, remember he is supposed to lead the Westeros army against the "Night King". He is supposed to be "Azor Azhai" reincarnated. his sword is "lightbringer"... do you think people will respect more his "bastard past" or his new "reborn persona"... this is just speculation, he might die and its Daenerys who knows? I think the whole arc of Jon Snow has been meant to end in the throne, cause he is the biggest underdog... on Season 1 nobody had a clue how big Jon was to become.

so jon is the son of Ned's sister?

Yes the son of Lyanna Stark of Winterfell & Rhaegar Targaeryan of Dragonstone. Rhaegar never abducted Lyanna, they fled in secret causing Robert's Rebellion. She asked Ned to fake him as his own son to protect his life as Robert's mission in the world was to exterminate the Targaeryan bloodline.

Yes. Let me ask you something. Do you read online fan theories and stuff like that?

I just want to know if the "reveal" was clear to people who don't read fan theories. To me they didn't explain it clearly that John Snow is the son of Lyanna Start and Rhaegar Targaryen. I can imagine most viewers were thinking WTF is this shit?

They really dropped the ball with that flashback. The first half of the flashback was in the 3rd episode. Most people, especially casual viewers, tend to forget names and such.


Oh by the way yes he can prove his true lineage because the man who accompanied Ned Stark is still alive. Howland Reed. Either way the writers can just invent a character that can corroberate the story.

It was very clear that the baby is Ned's sister and not Ned's....and that baby is Jon Snow.

But how the hell are we supposed to know it has a dragon daddy. The guy that Ned had help killing outside wasn't a Targarayan
