Lateral Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Renly would have destroyed the Lannisters, Robb Stark would have bent the knee. No idea about the Ironborn. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laughing Storm Reborn Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 He would still be King at present time... Everyone who wanted to survive and spare their people's lives would bent the knee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beorn Snow Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 He´d still be king but the north would be independent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orphalesion Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Sunshine and candy for everyone. And puppies. And Rainbows. And Rainbow Puppies. And Puppy Rainbows. Renly would have taken out Stannis, Not sure about Tywin and King's Landing. Wedteros would have a good king on the IT now and if Robb wasn't a complete idiot/puppet for his bannermen they might even found an arrangement the North could accept. Possibly this would involve handing over Sansa or marrying her to Willas. On the negative side the Riverlands would still be a complete mess and Mellisandre wouldn't have made it to the wall (assuming she is going to do something important up there).

Fat Mac Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Like I say in almost every thread where something like this comes up... Renly gets a midnight visit from Varys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezko Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Like I say in almost every thread where something like this comes up... Renly gets a midnight visit from Varys. Yep, otherwise the realm would be far too stable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ConfusedCounselor Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 melisandre is too late, and renly's knights overrun and capture stannis. what happens to WoFK and westeros? who bends the knee? The Lannisters bend the knee with bad/mediocre terms. Starks bend the knee with decent terms. Renly becomes King. If he is smart enough to kill Littlefinger + Varys, he will rule quite long. If not, well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he is smart enough to kill Littlefinger + Varys, he will rule quite long. If not, well... Tbh, he probably wouldn't even get the chance. Varys might mysteriously dissappear only to show up one night. I doubt he'd take the risk pretending to be loyal. Maybe, but Renly isn't Robert and Varys knows it.

I doubt he'd take the risk pretending to be loyal. Maybe, but Renly isn't Robert and Varys knows it. Quite possibly. OTOH, IIRC, Renly was quite fond of verbally sparring with Littlefinger which might have given the impression that he wouldn't just take their heads.

Good point, the truth is we don't really know THAT much about Renly. Not enough to know for sure what he would do with those two. And to be fair to Robert as well, who could really know that Varys was plotting to create unrest in the realm? It's not that easy to figure out, you could assume he's up to something but actively trying to create instability isn't something you'd expect.

Truly Just Man Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 The Others would have been laughing their asses out if Renly was king. Or he could have a fight with Dany over who has the better hair style. But gotta admit I don't see Dany fighting for such thing. On more serious note, pretty much this: Sunshine and candy for everyone. And puppies. And Rainbows. And Rainbow Puppies. And Puppy Rainbows.

On more serious note, pretty much this: I think the Others are far more amused at the broken realm they face currently as oppose to the one they would find under Renly.

Ice Walker Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 The Others would have been laughing their asses out if Renly was king. With Robb and his North men defending the Wall, backed by the Iron Throne and with access to all the Obsidian on Dragonstone, I doubt it. Is it just me who thinks Renly might have been able to cut a deal even with Mance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eltharion21 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Renly didn't believe in mystical powers that exist in Planetos and would not create defense from the Others , until too late. He might take Kings Landing and defeat Lannister , though most likely he would try to make deal with all of the Houses , neither he nor House Tyrell have much stomach for prolonged war. His claim for the throne also rests only on the military power of houses backing him , not on laws of succession , so anyone with more power can claim throne after him, and lot of factions would aim for that , Varys could even try to assasinate him ( not so hard to accomplish) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
