Remi of House Myrdal Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Who will get the dreadfort in the aftermath of the battle? is this for the crown to give, or can the lord of winterfell give this since he/she is their overlord? Personally i would like to se Tormund Giantsbane take it, with a banner of his member Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rory Snow Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Screw the crown.. Jon should hand over all holdings of the Boltons, Karstarks and Umbers to whoever he damn well pleases Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Scot A Ellison Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 It's Sansa's call as Lady of Winterfell/Queen in the North. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Lannister Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 The Starks just overthrew the rightful Warden of the North in the Crown's eyes, and prior to that led a separatist movement against the Seven Kingdoms. Even if the Starks were inclined to bend the knee to the crown, which they aren't, the Crown has no reason to accept them as anything more than rebels. Lest we forget the Tullys were just crushed in a similar scenario after retaking their home seat and starting a new rebellion. Regardless, the Lord of a major region always has control over their vassal lands. Even if everything was somehow right as rain between Winterfell and the Crown, the Starks would get say over who rules. As things stand, either Jon or Sansa is the de facto Lord of Winterfell and they'll need to decide if they're going to try and reconcile with the Crown somehow or just resume the King in the North title. Either way, they do have the Bolton, Umber, Glover and Karstark lands to hand out to those loyal. I'd imagine Jon Snow(if Sansa is the one doling out titles), the wildlings, the Mormonts and Hornwoods would all stand to benefit from standing with the Starks in this manner.

Forlong the Fat Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 It will be interesting to see what the remaining Boltons do. They can't have been overly fond of Ramsay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramsay killed Walda and her child and there were no other children as far as I remember. There must be some other relations and household people holding down the dread fort.

Yea, I think Sansa also eludes to this also when she tells Ramsey that nobody will remember his house or his name etc. Even in the books the Bolton line is very small. I'm pretty sure the Boltons are completely extinct now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what would Crown think about Ramsay marrying Sansa though. I don't think they'd be too delighted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's why Littlefinger got the go ahead from Cersei to take out the Boltons with the Vale army. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warsaw Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Judging by Sansa's last words to him, they might tear the Dreadfort down and salt the earth. Erase the Boltons from memory, as if they had never existed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cersei wouldn't be. She wasn't. But as the show has pointed out, her views and the Crown's aren't one and the same anymore. Given the way the world works, I don't think there would be much issue with the Boltons marrying a Stark to solidify their claim. That is how things are done after all. Cersei's grudge towards Sansa was mostly personal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Count Winter Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Sansa is/was married to Ramsey, so Dreadfort is hers. Think she wants to see it burned to ashes. No memories of the Boltons are to last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
