Jon Snow's Dreams & Destiny in ASOIAF

Ойын-сауық

In A Song of Ice & Fire, we can look at characters' dreams to get clues about where their stories will go. Jon Snow has recurring dreams of the Winterfell crypts, and both Ned and Bran Stark also dream of the crypyts. In Game of Thrones, the crypts played a very minimal role in the story, but mayhaps there is one idea they got right: Jon Snow will find the truth about his parents in the crypts of Winterfell. In this video, I look at Jon's dreams and other elements of the ASOIAF lore to discuss where his story may go in TWOW and beyond.
Warning: this theory assumes R+L=J; please tell me how wrong I am in the comments.

    I swear Howland Reed is the Bloodraven of the north any theory to do with with the north probably will involve him in some way. he always manages to make an appearance in these videos like "here's the mandatory Howland cameo." crazy how we've never met the guy but he's still so important.

    I think when Jon resurects, his sole focus will be on the Others, it seems that fire wights are stuck on the mission that they died failing to succeed. Beric went to fulfill neds command and bring order to the riverlands and stoneheart is dead set on revenge for the red wedding. Before Jons death his sole focus was preparing the nights watch for the Others invasion. Then again though his last vow before death was to march south and reclaim winterfell from the boltons. So it will be curious to see which vow his wightness pursues.

    I think if Jon does get "resurrected" it will be through the power of the old gods, we've seen a fire resurrection and fire healing, we've also seen an ice resurrection, we've yet to see an old god's magic resurrection/healing, the outcome of that could be very different than the others, Tormmunds titles of Speaker to gods and Father of hosts is very interesting and also Val's very suspicious all white outfit given to her by Dalla raises some eye brows. We also know Morna the Woods witch just crossed over to the other side of the wall. Val seems to indicate in an earlier Jon chapter(when speaking of shireen) that woods witches are the experts in healing north of the wall.

    Howland Reed is such a strange character, I feel like getting to finally meet him in the books would be so wild. In his youth he was adventurous and brave, but quickly that changed and hasn't left his home in so many years. I wonder if there are any parallels between him and Lord Hightower, perhaps he's stuck to the Crannogs because he has magics to see what's transpiring outside his own domain. Or perhaps he's too traumatized to relive such horrors again, especially when Robb calls his banners. I have a feeling he will be a very tragic character to read about when we finally get to learn about him.

The only thing i could think is if somehow stannis or the grand northern conspiracy find out about Robb's will and legitimizing jon and they send him there out of respect to be buried in the crypts. Thats the only reason I can think his body would somehow get there.

I think thats a bit of a stretch but I do find the idea intriguing considering if the long night did last an entire generation, you would need a way to get around the north without freezing to death. Intriguing but unlikely.

    Technically Jon was legitimized by a king. Stannis offered to do it but Robb legitimized Jon and named him the heir to Winterfell. If he did find out later that he was actually a Targaryen I wonder if that would be legit.

    ​@jaredwat8478 Robb legitimised Jon and named him heir to Winterfell. If there was a secret wedding like on the show then Jon is a Targ and therefore Robb can't legitimise him so arguably he can't claim WF in that scenario. But if there was no secret wedding then Jon's still a bastard and who his parents were isn't relevant to Robb's actions.

    @thatoneblackdude3333 he would not claim WF based on his Stark heritage tho. if King Robb issued a royal decree naming Jon heir it doesn't matter why Robb did it, Jon just is the heir. Robb as king has divine right to make anyone he wants heir, he could name Edmure or Gregor or Moonboy. Jon's parentage makes his claim weaker or stronger when he tries to enforce Robb's decree but it is not the critical factor.

    It has to be said that we take a lot of liberties when it comes to calling people Starks blackwoods, Targaryens and so on when they are only part from their matrilineal side, yes they have the blood, but that doesn’t make them part of that house, otherwise Robb would be a Tully (and he certainly looks like one) but he isn’t the heir to Hoster as the eldest child of Hosters eldest Child, this all comes back to marriages, patrilineal ones to be specific. My point is that if Jon is anything he’s a Targaryen assuming that Rhaegar Married Layana in secret, otherwise he’s just a bastard, not a stark, same way Benedict Rivers (who was part Bracken and Blackwood) crated hose Justman and became his own man, rather than being identified as a Blackwood or Bracken

    Hoster Tully has a son so of course Robb is not going to be considered the heir to Riverrun. However had Edmure Tully died earlier in the series Bran would have become the heir to Riverrun as the second son of the oldest daughter. Robb and Robin would still be their father's heirs and inherit Wonderful and the Vale respectively.

I think Jon as Tormond may be the ghost in Winterfell who knew Theon but Theon didn't regonise. Just an idea. I just don't see Jon not running to Ayras aide regardless of what his vows are...he would do what was right. I also think Jon is the ONLY true born son of Ned and all the other Starks are bastards. Jon's mother is still alive.
