Jay21 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Maybe Sansa would have seen it on her way to tell the Queen about the Starks leaving Kingslanding... Hey, this could have been a 1 volume tale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curled Finger Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 That would have been a cruel act, no doubt beyond Ned's ability. A genuinely kind and loving father wouldn't do a thing like that. Fortunately, Sansa had that guy for a dad. She took the long way to learning the valuable lessons. She's suffered greatly for her errors. She doesn't need more nightmare fodder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Stark Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 Yup. Ned just isn't a cruel guy. Tywin Lannister might have done something like this. But not Ned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugorfonics Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Lady had a grey cloak. Cersei looks good in red. Shed probably only wear it as pajamas 18 hours ago, Nathan Stark said: But not Ned. No. Hed only kill Lady Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sigella Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 On 9/17/2020 at 12:07 AM, Lord Lannister said: I'm not so sure. Sansa ignored a lot of Joffrey's deplorable character traits early on because she was infatuated with him. I could easily see Sansa twisting it in her mind to pin the blame on her father for letting it happen. Cersei might even be smart enough to see that and use it as a lever to manipulate Sansa even further against her father. This is true. Cersei could have used the pelt to drive an even bigger wedge between Sansa and Ned; Cersei might gift it to Sansa, with a not so subtle "I know you have been giving for your wolf, you should have this to remember her by" and Sansa would readily buy into it. Also makes Ned look niggardly, because - as others have pointed out - he's not a cruel parent who'd gift his daughter the skin of her beloved pet to begin with.

Quoth the raven, Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Direwolves belong in the north. Her death should have been another warning to the Starks to go back home. The south is no place for them. All of the Starks, alive or dead, will return to the north. That includes their four legged friends. Look back in history. Lyanna died in the south and the Starks went through hell to get her remains returned to the north. Arya, Sansa, Robb, and Jon will return to Winterfell one way or the other, alive or dead. Robb's head is coming back home. Greywind's pelt will be returned to where it belongs. Jon comes back as a wight. Arya's corpse might not go back north but her soul in Nymeria will. Ned would not have allowed Lady's pelt on Cersei's shoulders. That is an insult to the wolf and the family. Besides, Ned failed to realize the depth of Sansa's affections for Joffrey.
