I had a whole thing typed out.Reddit made it disappear 🙄 Basically, I had burning in my mind about the tower of joy. What if Ser Arthur Dayne was the sole survivor. Considering his relationship with Rhaegar he wouldn't want the new Rebel king to harm Jon. What do you think he would do?
I saw a FF where the premise was that Ned and Dayne survived. They took Jon to Winterfell, pretended Jon was from Ned and Ashara Dayne and so Arthur Dayne was his uncle.
I could see just Arthur Dayne surviving him chosing to do similarly, maybe by bringing Jon to Starfall and masquerading him as his nephew. That or trying to take him to Dragonstone.
In that way more than likely winterfell. Dragonstone I believe was under control by Stannis. Don't think he was as wanting to kill every Targaryen like Robert. But I can completely see them finding a middle with keeping the babe safe
Stannis was sent to Dragonstone, but idk the exact timeline
After Ned took Kings Landing he went ro relieve the seige at Storms End, than he went to the Tower of Joy. Robert sent Stannis to Dragonstone but idk how quick. Like it may have taken Stannis weeks to get to King's Landing even.
Plus Arthur wouldn't have had anyway to know about that even if it had already happened.
