Ser Greg of House House Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Wait a second Then when Ned found Lyanna she already gave birth to Jon and that means Jon was at least 9 months old right?So was Lyanna an open blood factory all that time?The bed of blood doesn't make any sense.I'm probably missing something, but it's funny how it looks like you think people are born 9 months old LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chralemar Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Why would Eddard hide Jon from Robert? Well, like people have been saying: if Jon is Robert's and Lyanna's bastard, then Robert would likely legitimize him. What happens if Jon Snow becomes Jon Baratheon? Well, he will be older than Joffrey, Tommen and Myrcella and legitimate issue himself. That will place Cersei's children behind Jon. Cersei and the Lannisters (Tywin) would not allow that to happen so an "unfortunate accident" may befall on Jon. Eddard knowing that the Lannisters massacred the Targaryens family, he may be protecting his nephew's life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bael's Bastard Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 For Robert to be Jon's father he would have had to find and impregnate Lyanna after Rhaegar abducted her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's impressive you found it to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrammarYatzy Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Jon Snows parentage is supremely clear and can be correctly surmised and has been correctly surmised from reading just the first book as confirmed by GRRM himself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the impression that there is going to be some people out there who will never accept R+L=J even it's confirmed in the book or by GRRM.

They will probably claim that it's merely fanservice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
