Well. Again.
Why would the Crown tolerate this behavior? Assassinating your feudal lord? Swearing fealty to a rival? No intervention for something so serious is not really something I see possible.
It's hard to speculate, given that this is all hypothetical. Maybe a few Targs escaped and there's news of a foreign invasion coming with a dragon rider at the helm? Maybe the Ironborns decided to rise up again and take advantage of a fractured Reach and want a piece for themselves? Maybe they're still busy dealing with an independence claiming North? Who knows? *shrug*
