But when he received word that Torrhen Stark was marching south with thirty thousand [[north]]men at his back, Aegon led forty-five thousand troops to meet him at the [[Trident]], and also his and his sisters' [[dragons]], [[Balerion]], [[Meraxes]], and [[Vhagar]]. At the Trident, Torrhen took advice from his bannermen, while considering [[Burning of Harrenhal|what had happened to Harrenhal]] and the [[Field of Fire]]. His bastard brother Brandon Snow offered to cross the Trident alone at night, to sneak into the Targaryen camp and assassinate the dragons while they slept. However, instead Torrhen sent Brandon and three [[maesters]] across the river to negotiate with Aegon, and the next day knelt and swore fealty.{{Ref|FAB|Aegon's Conquest}} ==Theories== In ''[[A Dance with Dragons]]'', [[Bran Stark]] has several visions of the past through [[Winterfell]]'s [[heart tree]]. One of these visions is of a pale, fierce, and dark-eyed young man, who slices three branches off the [[weirwood]] and shapes them into arrows.{{Ref|ADWD|34}} It has been theorized that this may be Brandon Snow, preparing arrows to kill the three [[dragon]]s of [[Aegon I Targaryen|Aegon the Conqueror]]. ==Family== {{Stark tree Conquest}} ==References== {{References}} [[Category:House Stark]] [[Category:Bastards|Snow, Brandon]] [[Category:Characters from the North|Snow, Brandon]] [[Category:Veterans of Aegon's Conquest|Snow, Brandon]] [[es:Brandon Nieve]] [[fr:Brandon Snow]] [[nl:Brandon Sneeuw]] [[pt:Brandon Snow]] [[ru:Брандон Сноу]] [[zh:布兰登·雪诺]]
