[QUOTE="Alaric_Prympax, post: 1058882, member: 176"] Possible Spoilers for those who have not yet read [I]A Storm of Swords[/I]... . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Their child would be the heir to Winterfell and the title King in the the North. This would have put Tywin's attempt to have Tyrion rule the north as Sansa's husband and the father of their children to ruin. But of course the events at the end of the book ruined those plans anyway. Robb's child would also be a rallying point for those Northern Lords who will not serve Greyjoys, Lannisters, Boltons, or any other non-Stark. Concerning the Targaryens and their incest... it seems that the Targaryens were above the law and what was taboo for some was not for them. Incest was looked down upon in Westeros but the Targaryens could do what they wanted to. Wether this was because they were the ruling family or because they were descended from Valyria is not really hinted at though I think it is the latter because brother-sister relations was a "Valyrian custom" and was done "To preserve the blood royal and keep it pure".
