ASOIAF / Game of Thrones (SPOILERS INSIDE)

[Sage Truthbearer]

Daenerys is actually Jon's aunt.

The history to everything is never clearly explained in the show, but TLDR version is there used to be a mad king named Aerys Targaryen who was Rhaegar, Dany, and Viserys' dad.

Jonsnow is the product of when Rhaegar kidnaps Ned Stark's sister, Lyanna, and rapes her.

But he didn't kidnap her or rape her. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Last night I went to youtube to watch compilations of hints throughout the GoT seasons that suggest Rhaegar + Lyanna = Jon.

"While in the Riverlands, Lyanna was kidnapped by Rhaegar with the help of half a dozen companions, including Arthur Dayne and Oswell Whent. Rhaegar carried her off to Dorne and raped her. "

She ran off with him because they loved each other. Rhaegar was loved by the people because he was actually a good guy, there are many instances in the books and the show where people talk about Rhaegar and how people loved him because he was a good person. History is written by the winners, its not always truth just like Ned being Jon's father.

How do we know this from the show though? It wasn't clear. Who did Young Ned fight outside of his sisters tower? Was that Rhaegar? Rhaegar's kings guard?

Rhaegar was killed at the trident by Robert Baratheon. Ned fought Arthur Dayne and some of the other kings guard.

It was as clear as they are going to make it. Rhaegar and Lyanna loved each other and that is what a lot of this is about. They Lyanna got pregnant and Rhaegar went off to what he thought was win the war, he left his most trusted kingsguard behind to protect Lyanna and his unborn child. He knew that if Robert had gotten to the tower he would have killed everyone involved including the child.

It has been the dark secret that Ned has kept.

So yes Jon being Rhaegars child would make Daenerys Jons aunt

Wish we could get some of these earlier storylines on screen in a spinoff. I'd settle for Dunknegg I guess.

They are working on some ideas GRRM confirmed.
