Catelyn was dead and rotting in the water for days, though. Jon will permanently have the wounds when he died, as those reanimated by fire never heal, much like Frodo never fully healed on LOTR, a fact of the bittersweet Tolkien ending Martin has praised a few times before. It would be cool if those wounds had made him on permanent pain and somewhat affected his judgement, or if he had forgotten someone of his family, but since the series follow the broad outlines of upcoming books, I doubt we'll see anything very drastic. Either way, his life is probably linked to the existence of dragons right now, since fire magic supposedly came from them. |
He's also a Targaryen by blood so there are two reasons for the dragons to take to him. I suspect one or more of the dragons is going to follow him after he meets Dany and heads up North. I also think one of them is going to die at the hands of the Night King and be raised as his personal Ice Dragon (GRRM did write a Westrossi kids story about an Ice Dragon).
