:icondubugomdori:
Lyanna was known to be a spirited young, kinda wild, woman, and an excellent equestrian. Exhibiting the typical Stark colorings, she was known to be beautiful. Arya, her niece, is said to be as beautiful as her. Yet, Arya considers herself ugly.

Eddard (Ned) Stark is Lyanna's older brother who rushed Dragonstone to rescue her with six companions in a building Rhaegar named the Red Mountains of Dorne. Eddard found Lyanna in a pool of blood breathing her last air. She asked Ned to Promise her something. We still do not know what that is. We do believe Ned kept that promise because of his loyalty to her. He had visited her grave frequently in Winterfell where the Stark line is cared for.

The crown she holds has a stag and dragon fighting over her. Her heart breaks from this, hence the broken heart. The stag represents her betrothed Robert Baratheon, while the Dragon represents Prince Rhaegar of Dragonstone, the House of Targaryen. Eddard Stark kneels grieving for his lost sister clutching the wreath of winter, blue roses. Both sleeves show dire wolves, the symbol for the House of Stark. Behind is the hallway leading into the tomb chambers of the Stark lineage.

Winter is Coming!

Are you sure The tower of joy is on Dragonstone? I thought it was in Dorne.

You know that feeling you get in your heart when you see something or read something, kinda like your heart's clenching? Well, I get that feeling when I look at this. It's heartbreaking in its tragedy and unfairness. I guess we'll never know the promise since both of them are gone now, and if it involved Robert he's gone as well.
