   Summary

   "let the boy live, let him live and i'll love him. i'll be a mother to him. i'll beg my husband to give him a true name, to call him stark and be done with it, to make him one of us" "and he lived?" "and he lived and i couldn't keep my promise. everything that's happened since then, all this horror that's come to my family... it's all because i couldn't love a motherless child."

   what would have happened if catelyn had kept her promises? a parallel universe where some things change for the better and others stay the same
