Summary
Love by itself did not guarantee loyalty; Sansa had learned that all too well.
The North had loved the Starks: it had loved her father and it had loved her older brother, Robb. But that love had not saved either of them… and it had not saved her, even when she was being tortured within the walls of Winterfell itself. It certainly hadn't saved poor Rickon.
Love was a surer route to the people’s loyalty than fear, but there needed to be some fear there.
