Um passo de cada vez ...
Atualmente, os Boltons, especificamente Roose, estão querendo se tornar Rei no Norte (ou assim é suspeito).
"Truth be told," she said, "Lord Bolton aspires to more than mere lordship. Why not King of the North? Tywin Lannister is dead, the Kingslayer is maimed, the Imp is fled. The Lannisters are a spent force, and you were kind enough to rid him of the Starks. Old Walder Frey will not object to his fat little Walda becoming a queen. White Harbor might prove troublesome should Lord Wyman survive this coming battle … but I am quite sure that he will not. No more than Stannis. Roose will remove both of them, as he removed the Young Wolf. Who else is there?"

O Game of Thrones é longo para jogar ... e neste ponto, enquanto Boltons pode ter força suficiente para levar o Norte, eles não seriam capazes de marchar sobre Kings Landing.
