Did Ned Stark support Stannis?
It was precisely because Ned knew who Jon was that Ned supported Stannis and did not reveal Jon’s true identity. Everyone in a position of power in the Baratheon regime wanted all Targaryens dead, even bastards. Ned was a lone voice on the Small Council and a bastard Targaryen would have had zero support.
Did Stannis respect Jon Snow?
In the show, Stannis definitely respects Jon; he saw that Jon had enough honour to keep his vows, and that he had no tolerance for those who defied his commands as Lord Commander (Stannis even gave Jon a nod of approval when he executed Janos Slynt).
Was Ned Stark a friend of Stannis Baratheon?
That is in evidence when Stannis Baratheon stresses the fact that Ned was no friend of his, even though Ned Stark had supported his claim to the throne after learning about Joffrey’s parentage. “I knew Ned Stark as well. Your father was no friend of mine, but only a fool would doubt his honor or his honesty”
What would have happened if Ned Stark had lived?
If Ned Stark had been alive he surely would’ve followed Stannis to his grave and on top of that their alliance could’ve easily overwhelmed the Lannisters with their sheer individual military expertise (both Stannis and Robb are shown as brilliant battle strategists).
Can Stannis Baratheon take King’s landing?
Stannis Baratheon has just been soundly defeated at the Battle of the Blackwater, and with the Tyrells allied with the Lannisters, there is no conceivable way for him to take King’s Landing. While Melisandre wanted to sacrifice “king’s blood” to change Stannis’ fortunes, Davos reminded him that a true king protects his people.
Why did Stannis Baratheon send the Raven to the Night’s Watch?
FYI, the Night’s Watch send the raven to all kings for help and Stannis is the one who do the favor. Why – He just had an army, in fact, small army since his main troops were annihilated by Tyrion and Tywin in Battle of the Blackwater.
