In the last episode of last season, Game of thrones finally dropped the bomb we expected: Jon Snow is not really a snow after all. Sam and Bran gathered their research on the citadel and their three-eyed crow visions to understand that Jon's parents are not Ned Stark and any woman of King's Landing, but rather Rhaegar Targaryen (the eldest son Mad King) and Lyanna Stark (Ned Sister), who were married is a secret ceremony before Jon's birth (or should we say Aegon?). So while it means that he is not only a bastard, but also the product of two extremely powerful families, we are here to ask the very important question: what does this revelation mean for Jon and his new love, Daenerys? ?
Well, quite simply, Dany is Jon's aunt. His much older brother, Rhaegar, was the firstborn of King Aerys II, aka the Crazy King, whom Jaime later killed. Rhaegar is initially married to Princess Elia Martell of Dorne, the youngest sister of Oberyn. But then, during a tournament in King's Landing, Rhaegar meets Lyanna for the first time and is immediately seduced. When he finally wins the tournament, he passes right in front of his own wife to give Lyanna the crown of winter roses, even if she is already betrothed to Robert Baratheon. We can only imagine the side eye that Elia and Robert were serving at that time.
A few months later, the two future lovers ended up in the Riverlands, and that's where things get complicated. Many people thought that Rhaegar had kidnapped Lyanna and raped her, including Robert, who had decided that the appropriate response would be to wage a rebellion against the mad king. But thanks to Sam and Bran, we now know that the couple were really in love and chose to flee together and get married. Rhaegar is finally killed by Robert in the rebellion and Lyanna, who was found by Ned inside the Joie Tower moments before dying, asks Ned to take his baby Aegon Targaryen (aka Jon Snow) and protect him.
So what does it mean for Jon and Dany today? This means that they sleep unconsciously with a family member. And although the marriage between the Targaryen is known to be common enough to keep the lineage pure (Dany's mother was his father's and sister's sister), we are not sure that the Honorable Jon will be able to look at -of the.
