Speaking of Ned and the Daynes, how much do you think Ned returning Dawn helped with their reconciliation? To what extent was the return of the Dawn something expected of any decent person or a sign of Ned’s high moral character? On the flipside, would Ned have been expected to bring Arthur’s bones home to Starfall rather than just leaving them in a cairn at the former Tower of Joy?

It certainly helped; a legendary sword like that could easily have been considered a prize of war, so returning it to the family is a significant sign of respect.

As for the flipside, it sort of depends on the circumsntaces. Small group, health of a child in question, etc.
