Lady Barbrey Dustin, the widow of Lord Willam Dustin, resents that Ned brought Willam's red stallion back, but not the remains of Willam himself.A few things about the Tower of Joy scene puzzled me: While under the influence of the milk of the poppy, taken because of his broken leg, Lord Eddard Stark has a fevered dream of the incident.
When Bran Stark was little, Ned told his son he would have died if not for Howland. Servants at Winterfell whisper that Ned defeated Arthur, the Sword of the Morning, in single combat. While traditionally only lords or kings are honored with statues in the crypts of Winterfell, Ned commissioned statues for Brandon and Lyanna as exceptions. Įddard returned Lyanna's remains to the north so she could be buried with her brother, Brandon, and her father, Lord Rickard. While Ned had been upset with King Robert I Baratheon after the Sack of King's Landing, the death of Lyanna reconciled the old friends. Arthur's sister, Ashara Dayne, threw herself into the Summer Sea. Įddard returned Arthur's sword, Dawn, to Starfall, the seat of House Dayne. Afterwards, Eddard pulled stones from the tower to make eight cairns for the dead combatants. She claimed a promise from her brother before she died, and Howland removed Ned's hand from hers. Īccording to a semi-canon source, Eddard found Lyanna dying in the tower, in a room smelling of blood and roses. Eddard recalls that he and Howland were the only survivors of the ensuing conflict. They approached the tower to recover Eddard's sister, Lyanna, but found the tower protected by Gerold, Arthur, and Oswell of the Kingsguard.
After Storm's End, Eddard rode south to the Red Mountains of Dorne.Īccording to his fever dream, Eddard traveled to the tower of joy with six northern companions: Howland Reed, Lord Willam Dustin, Ethan Glover, Martyn Cassel, Theo Wull, and Ser Mark Ryswell. Lords Mace Tyrell and Paxter Redwyne quickly dipped their banners. Īfter the Sack of King's Landing, Lord Eddard Stark rode south to lift the siege of Storm's End. The prince returned to the crownlands, but left Gerold, Ser Arthur Dayne, and Ser Oswell Whent to guard Lyanna at the tower. During Robert's Rebellion, King Aerys II Targaryen sent Gerold Hightower, Lord Commander of the Kingsguard, to retrieve Rhaegar. According to a semi-canon source, Prince Rhaegar Targaryen kept Lyanna Stark at the tower of joy after her abduction near Harrenhal.
