"You won't obey the king, will you? You won't send Robert and Ned to be murdered?"

"This is an act of war. I have been urging Robert to caution, but he's right," Jon Arryn says heavily. "Open revolt is our only option."

"There have been many rebellions against the Targaryens. None ended well."


"How could King Aerys do that? On what possible grounds did he execute them?"

"This was no execution. It was murder for the sheer joy of it. The Mad King burned Rickard with wildfire and let Brandon strangle trying to save him."

"The Mad King must be deposed, and all his line with him."


"What will happen now?"

"War," Jon Arryn answers. "Ned will raise the North. Robert already called banners in the Stormlands. We'll put an end to the rule of the dragon."

"Surely the Mad King is our target, not overthrowing the whole dynasty?"

"The Mad King has left us no choice." Jon Arryn throws the letter in the fire. "We must end his rule or die trying."
"Madness has always run in the Targaryen line," Jon Arryn says grimly. "They have only made it worse by marrying sister to brother."
Jon Arryn gives a half smile. "Robert and Ned would hardly consider Prince Rhaegar innocent after what he did to Lyanna. They are all our target."
