Robb Month, Week One: Theon || Prompt: Freedom

This prompt made me think about how Robb is such a symbol of freedom to so many people. To the northerners he symbolizes freedom from the Iron Throne and an independent north. He is also a symbol of freedom to Theon. Robb literally frees him by sending him home after he has been a hostage for ten years. Robb and Theon also negotiated an alliance that would mean freedom and independence for the Iron Islands as well. Robb and Theon thought they could achieve freedom for their homelands and rule together as allies and friends. And yet, in the end, this quest for freedom ended up imprisoning both of them in different ways and made Robb wonder why would any man ever want to be king?
