Summary
It was an odd situation they'd found themselves in. Selyse had burst into Jon’s small council with a letter and bid him read it with a screechy voice. Ser Justin Massey was coming north, it said, with an army of sellswords more than 20,000 strong to follow the final will of his deceased king and seat Shireen upon the Iron Throne. King Jon Stark, it said, was a traitor and in open rebellion against the rightful queen of the Seven Kingdoms. He would come, free the Dowager Queen and Shireen from their ‘captivity in Winterfell’, put down the rebel pretender, and march south.
“He will kneel.” Selyse promised. “When he sees you are R’hllor’s chosen! When he sees you are Azor Ahai returned! He will kneel.”
Jon did not want to hedge his bets on the supposed religious fanaticism of a man he hardly knew. Not when lives were on the line. He needed a solidified alliance, something rock solid and certain, with which to present Ser Massey. Nothing solidified an alliance quite like a marriage and so a marriage it would be.
(A royal wedding comes to Winterfell to ensure an alliance holds, and its not the one most had expected. They feast, they celebrate, and Winterfell becomes a beacon of warmth in the cold of winter)
