"Ned Stark is not my father." The worsd fee like a lie in his tongue. the reality was that nevermind whose blood he shares, Ned Stark had been his father in all aspects that mattered for a bastard. The truth felt good to be spoken, perhaps to the one person in his life he trusts the mostt. "Lyanna Stark was not taken by force by Rhaegar but rather, went willingly, and as he left for the Trident she was left in Dorne. . .pregnant."
To think the first man who touched him andn held him had been Ser Arthur Dayne, a man who stayed because he was the son of his prince and the heir to his eyes. And then his mother died and Arthur died by combat and Ned took him and promised his safety. Dark grey eyes look upward toward Sansa and breathe out. Is he relieved? Distraust? He just won the title of King in the North by merit he hs a Stark and Ned's son. "We have to tell the Northern men, Sansa." @unsansa
