What if I told you Lyanna and Rhaegar (nice spelling, thanks m8) were married?
What do we know about Rhaegar? The only thing we learn from anyone who actually knew Rhaegar was when Selmy tells Dany that he was a good guy. Now, do you think Selmy would have high opinions of someone who kidnapped and raped a highborn lady? Also, why do we even see this scene talking about a guy that seemingly has no relevance to the show?
There's also the tidbit from Littlefinger about Rhaegar courting? Lyanna at a jousting tournament. Actually, I'm pretty sure this happened or I could have just made this up in my head.
What do we know about Robert? He is a drunk, womanizing warlord. He admits, although 19? years later that he was a ****ty husband and a bad ruler. I can only guess many of these negative traits existed when he was young.
So, your Lyanna. You potentially have a secret romance with a charming Prince. You can either run away with the Prince and elope, or stay and get married off like a pawn.
In this fantasy Jon is a legitimate son. Half Stark and Half Targ.
