Jon Snow just did the one thing every Stark does before they die

Of all the great houses in Game of Thrones, House Stark is the one best known for adhering to a sense of honor. They are a strong, stalwart house who prize justice and fairness, and compared to families like the Martells, Tyrells, and Lannisters they're the least scheme-y nobles in Westeros.
