is it? Ned's (trueborn) brother also joined the Watch


Benjen joined the watch because he had no status. He was the 3rd born son in a great house. 3rd born gets nothing. Their oldest brother got killed. And Ned became Lord Stark. Lots of Starks had been members of the Night's Watch, so Benjen figured why not. I can carry on the family tradition and Ned will carry on the family name.

....so it's not odd that Ned let Jon join, which is what he was pointing out.

If Jon ever learns about his parents I doubt he ever claims himself to be a Targaryen. Too much wolf in him.

I do wonder if he'll resent Ned and Cat.
