[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OK something DH and I couldn't figure out- why was it such a big deal that Eddard Stark didn't kill that swordsman at the tower like the stories said? It was a fight to the death, who cares if the other guy stabbed him in the back?? [/quote]

That section was just a small part of this bigger story, that everyone has heard for years, but based on all the side eye and strange looks whenever someone brings up Lyanna and Rheagar, you can tell didn't happen the way. The fight with Arthur Dane is important cause Bran sees that what he was told was not the truth, but why? We will see more of this vision as the season progresses and the whole thing is going to unravel- hopefully all to reveal the very popular fan theory that Lyanna and Rheagar were in love and secretly married and had a boy, named Jon....[/quote]

I agree that it's odd, and against Ned's character, to lie and say you killed someone when someone else did it, and saved your life.  In the books he was upfront and didn't lie about how it went down.  Anyway, I think PP is correct--it's to show Bran that not all of what he was told by Ned is the truth.  EG, that Lyanna was "abducted" rather than eloped with Rheagar, and that Jon Snow is their love child, whom Ned promised to protect and raise as his own, as Lyanna lay dying.
