The shippers really, really need to understand hindsight bias.
Characters can't be judge on future actions or within a moral lens of what the current present represents.
You don't get a time machine and go back to kill Maegor the Cruel when he was three.
Robert Baratheon, before the rebellion, hadn't done anything but accept a betrothal to the sister of his foster brother.
He was gorgeous, gregarious, and greatly admired by men and women alike. His big 'flaw' was siring a bastard girl after the deaths of his parents- and he took responsibility according to the norms of his rank and class.
He acknowledged the girl and supported having her later installed as a high ranking servant in the Eryie. He did not bring her to Storm's End or flaunt her existence in front of Lyanna.
And it was the exact birth of a bastard girl that Lyanna would never meet or see that dug under her skin.
Robert Baratheon would never keep to one bed.
Not Robert Baratheon was a drunk that hit people.
Not Robert Baratheon harassed the female servants.
Not Robert Baratheon refused to do his duty as a paramount lord and rule wisely and well.
Not Robert Baratheon hurt women and abandoned after he was done.
Because Robert hadn't done anything like that yet.
Would any woman differ in how he treated Cersei in the present canon?
No. Women aren't rehabilitation centers for wayward men.
Does Lyanna get to cry about Mya Stone?
Well, she rejects Robert for his infidelity and having a bastard and then runs off with a married father of two.
So there is that.

“Elia… was frail and sickly from the first, and childbirth only left her weaker. After the birth of Princess Rhaenys, her mother had been bedridden for half a year.”

The Silver Prince and his daughter, Rhaenys Targaryen 🩶
— commission done by the wonderful @adelikashere
A day of pure disgust.The sheer biodiversity of internet species never ceases to amaze me.
We mourn characters who actually deserved better.We rage at how the good die young while the wicked thrive. Their deaths haunt us, their absences leave scars. Meanwhile, the roaches in the gutter snicker behind their hands, delighting in the suffering of those with actual virtue.
They mock over Elia and her children’s graves—“You’re dead, your bloodline’s gone, you get no screentime in the main story. But Lyanna? She gets hers.”
Need I remind you why Elia's legacy doesn't live?And whose lives were sacrificed for Lyanna being untouchable far away from battlefield and Jon's safe birth?
The way the show portrayed it was absolutely beyond disgusting which, of course, makes it beloved by thoseLyanna stans.Because it was a one-sided annulment and a secret marriage and pregnancy, Elia and her children were still recognized by usurpers as Rhaegar's wife and heirs.Rhaegar and Lyanna shamelessly used Elia and her children as human shields while they played house at the Tower of Joy, leaving them in the Red Keep as live targets for the rebels. Elia and her children bore the full brunt of the rebels' wrath,and they paid in blood for crimes they didn’t commit—they died screaming as the official Targaryen family, while Rhaegar’s real priority—his teen mistress and their song of ice and fire—lived in cozy obscurit.In fact they became Lyanna and Jon's scapegoats.
It’s obvious that show-Lyanna knew what was going on outside.Isn't this, in a way, a form of sacrifice,a form of blood magic—their suffer and deaths traded for Jon's birth. Even the Old Gods demanded less for miracles. Even Cersei was always trying to protect all her kids,Rhaegar couldn’t even compare with her.
Tell me,is she grrm's favourite?your favorite?Lyana stans are like a bunch of squeaky rubber chickens —the moment you point out that while they was whispering sweet nothings under the moonlight,Westeros was drowning in blood, they start screaming, “Stay away from her!”“Leave her alone!”
Like idol, like fandom.The internet is their perfect camouflage — it hides the cowardice behind the confidence.Lyanna stans shamelessly only mock Elia’s extinguished bloodline and gloated over how Lyanna's son the great Jon became such an important figure in the main story as if that justifies the blood spilled for his existence.
I’ve said it before — they’re not Alicent Hightower stans in Lyanna cosplay.What they truly love is the fantasy of replacing the dead wife with their own bloodline,then looking down from above and saying,“She’s dead. This isn’t discrimination, darling — it’s just the truth. She’s dead.”
They don’t grieve the cost — they celebrate it.They treat Elia’s annihilation not as a tragedy, but as an inevitable act of stepping aside amd a narrative convenience.To them, history is justified by survival, and survival is sanctified by plot relevance. But glorifying an origin story soaked in blood doesn’t make it noble.It just makes them complicit in the very cruelty they pretend not to see.
They are idiots that can't even bother to read the wiki.
Elia Martell and her murder is the beating, bloody heart under the entire Dornish storyline while Lyanna is basically irrelevant to anything going on in the North besides Jon's arc and even then Ned and being Ned's bastard has greater narrative weight.
And also the potential survival of Elia's son in Young Griff and the Golden Company.
Young Griff is a young man of Valyrian origin claiming to be Aegon Targaryen, the believed-dead son of the late Prince Rhaegar Targaryen and
But disgustingly as much as the shippers crow that Elia and her children are irrelevant to the plot; they are a key figure in the ship.
The humilation and murder of Rhaegar's real wife and children are basically catnip to them.
The silver prince isn't enough, another woman has to be hurt and humiliated or how will their racist, white self insert truly win?
As a dead teenage girl that bled out thousands miles away from the North and begged to be buried with her father and brother can be said to win.
WIP Elia cradling her newborn Aegon, wrapped in warmth and endless love.

There were no kin left to Daenaera, so she made her own with her flesh.

"Rhaenys was a child too. Prince Rhaegar's daughter. A precious little thing, younger than your girls. She had a small black kitten she called Balerion, did you know? I always wondered what happened to him. Rhaenys liked to pretend he was the true Balerion, the Black Dread of old, but I imagine the Lannisters taught her the difference between a kitten and a dragon quick enough, the day they broke down her door".
