With the long awaited return of a certain "dead" uncle, the confirmation of who the hell Jon Snow's parents are and Daenerys finally setting sail for Westeros along with her 3 dragons and ever growing army, we are certainly in for a treat in Season 7. Whenever that bloody comes out.
The subject of just who Jon Snow's mother is has been theorized and talked about immensely, as it was one of the biggest mysteries of the entire series. Ever since Season 1, viewers have been madly trying to figure out who was Jon Snow's birth mother and why wouldn't his father, Ned Stark talk about her? But what we didn't know was that we should have been asking who the dad was as well.
When Bran Stark travelled back in time to watch his father back when he was still alive, he bare witness to his dad fighting Arthur Dayne, the greatest swordsman alive. After finally managing to beat him (when his friend, Howlan Reed stabbed Arthur in the back of the neck), Ned went running to save his sister (Lyanna Stark), who had been kidnapped by Rhaegar Targaryen. However, when he arrived at the tower she was in, his sister died in his arms. In a major plot twist, it turns out Lyanna and Rhaegar were actually lovers, and Jon Snow was their son.
This has huge implications. Firstly, this possibly makes Jon immune to fire. As we've seen with Daenerys at numerous times in the series, Targaryens can be immune to flames. This also makes him Daenerys' nephew, as his father, Rhaegar was Dany's brother.
This also gives the possibility of Jon Snow riding one of the two remaining dragons without riders. Imagine seeing Dany, Jon and one other character riding into battle atop 3 dragons.
Now begins the long wait for season 7. Only another FIVE TO SIX GODDAMN MONTHS.
