Prince Yourwetdream Aeryn Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Would Lyanna start a war for Robert if Rhaegar kidnapped him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Yozza Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 1) I sincerely doubt it 2) Robert didn't start a war because Rhaegar kidnapped Lyanna. Jon Arryn started a war because Aerys murdered the Lord of Winterfell and his heir and then unjustly demanded the heads of Robert and Ned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Light a wight tonight Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Bottom line, Lyanna didn't like Robert and didn't want to marry him. Why would she start a war over him? Better question, why would Rhaegar kidnap Robert? Under what circumstances? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It indirectly caused the rebellion. Indirectly yes, but it was the entire catalyst for the affair. Without it Brandon Stark never goes to King's Landing, and the eventual rebellion has an entirely different start in point, likely with Rhaegar leading the rebellion against his father himself and with 90% of the realm behind him.

It's hard to say. But why would Rhaegaer kidnap Robert? Rhaegar is a lot of things but we have no evidence to say he was into guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darion Storm Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 No, because she has no power to declare war. Would Lyanna and Ned, along with Jon Arryn, convince their father to rebel? Possibly using Brandon’s marriage and a Lysa and Jon marriage? I can see it happening. Although I feel like Aerys is much more likely to be kidnapping Robert, with Rhaegar potentially using it as an excuse to force his father to abdicate.

Rhaegar would probably lose his mind when that happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faera Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 Honestly, I burst out laughing when I read the the title. In all seriousness though, no. For one thing she would not have the means to go to war if Robert was kidnapped or being held hostage -- at best Stannis and Jon Arryn might have raised armies for attack in the event. Though odds are they might just try to random in. The only reason the Starks would get involved is if Rickard agreed to assist Arryn and Stannis Baratheon. Lyanna wouldn't have a say on doing it or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
