Ned survives all this shit like Robert's Rebellion where he allegedly fought a Kingsguard to my recollection, the Tower of Joy where he went toe to toe for a while with Arthur Dayne and didn't y'know get immediately slaughtered, as well as getting through the Greyjoy Rebellion.... only to get killed by some Skagosi schmuck?
What.
We're burning the Isles of Skagos to the ground. I say, when we find out, fuck everything else, fly on our dragon over there and meet up with Robb and tell him we're burning the islands down.
Wait, Sean Bean Ned Stark died? When did this happen? Goddamnit Droman! There have been many, many times where I've said that in my head, but it needs to be said out loud right now.
...
You people do realize that there won't be any Skagosi left for us to kill by the time we get there, right? Robb will have merc'd every one of them judging by the way you guys go on about him in your posts.
And some Skagosi chief!? Skagosi!? As the previous dude said, he survives Bobby B's rebellion, the Tower of Joy, and the Greyjoy Rebellion only to be killed by some random Skagosi asswipe!?
No. He has done that in the past for people killed by rolls during tournaments or such (and even then, mostly because we had a billion DP), not for people he kills in the narrative.
Shesh Ned Stark... Can't survive in the South, can't survive in the North...
Also this is probably black humor but...
*King Robert's Study*
King Robert: "Everything is proceeding as planned..."
Jon Arryn: "You're kidding? What about King's Landing?"
King Robert: "That was me! King's Landing was built by the Targaryens and had it's most loyal supporters due to having been directly under their rule for so long. It would have been like Tywin Lannister moving his capital to Storm's End, he would never be able to rest easy... It was a necessary sacrifice..."
Jon Arryn: "And the rebuilding process and the borrowing of more money from Tywin Lannister?"
King Robert: "That was also me! By the time I'm done, we'll probably have sucked up 2/3s of House Lannister's income for the last ten years and made it so that they'll have a much harder time fighting against us when we reveal the truth about the incest babies." *Rolls eyes*
Jon Arryn: "Uh huh, and the Dragon and Stormcrown's Lannister marriage?"
King Robert: "That was also me! I purposely let Jon Stormcrown find it. I could hardly risk myself and Jon...has a reputation. The Ceranna marriage? That was also me hohohohoho! Jon is friends with Tyrion and with a Lannister marriage... Well... There may eventually be a fight with the main Lannister branch once I execute Cersei. You know how these things work; lands open up, etc etc. If the imp decides not to bend the knee to the Iron Throne, Jon's children will be half-Lannister after all." *Examines fingernails*
Jon Arryn: "And Ned's death?"
King Robert: "Ned? What about-"
*Jon Arryn hands Robert a note*
King Robert:
"THIS WAS NOT AS PLANNED!"
...Ned's dead, Andy was right(which I've suspected for a while now, something was always off about Tuck), and DP/Odran agreed on something.
Godsdamn.
So, first off...Maegor the Cool did nothing wrong and we should strive to emulate his actions when it comes to The Faith Militant.
Which would probably be something along the lines of "Hey Tuck, you think stealing from me is pretty awesome right? Want to know what else is awesome? Dragonfire. Dragonfire everywhere.".
As for the Magnar of Skagos and all his ilk...either burn the islands to the ground until nothing remains or get Arlan's help in sinking it.
Ned is dead. He died fighting against Magnar with his throat cut and then returned as a wight, Robb and Theon had to kill him. Robb is currently killing a shitload of Skagosi in response.
Now why would we sink islands and burn everything down with Valonqar, when we can kill them one by one, and train our Archery/Dagger/One-handed up to Legendary, mhh?
His best friend dead. His children are not his but jaime. He went through marriage for nothing. King landing is destroyed. All but one female baby bastard and edric storm are all that remain of his blood.
He has to go to the north now. For the marriage. He needs to attend ned funeral.
You know what really sucks about this whole situation? We wasted like 10 DP on reading that skagosi book. Waste of time when we could have read one of the other ones.

Exactly I'm afraid that he just might lose the will to live at this point(well after he helps us destroy the Skagosi. The Stag, The Wolf and the Dragon are about to punk some bitches.)
And I love me some Bobby B. I do not want him to give up and just die
Of course Tywin won't simply swallow this, but we must make him understand that this is by far the best option, no loss of name by the Lannister, sympathetic outpour from the realm. And we argue that Tyrion is much more competent and liked in the Royal Court, and if Jaime is not found he is already without a heir, and if he is found, well....
Robert will marry Margaery? She most certainly wants to be the Queen, if Robert is single I doubt she would want us anyway.
About the Tommen and Myrcella, helping and protecting them will make Tywin easier to trust us, and later, we marry Tommen of to some lordling daughter who likes cats offering a good payment, saying he is a cousin of our dear wife, and Myrcella... Well. Who knows. If she keeps her heart and Cersei looks, we will already have one Lannister, why not two.
Meaning that when Jon Arryn dies, we will become the most powerful Lord, enjoying greatsupport from almost all of the LP and a kingly seat if we play our cards right.
Edit: This is not serious, just wild speculation for my amusement. Mental ADON masturbation if you want to be crude.
