 | | The conflict began when Brandon Stark, the heir to Winterfell, who was about to be married to Catelyn Tully, learned that his sister, Lyanna Stark had been kidnapped by Crown Prince Rhaegar. |
 | | King Aerys had Brandon arrested for wanting to murder the crown prince, and summoned Rickard Stark, Lord of Winterfell and Warden of the North to King’s Landing to answer for his son’s treason. |
 | | Along with the Starks, Brandon's companions, Jeffory Mallister, Kyle Royce, and Elbert Arryn (nephew and heir of Lord Jon Arryn of the Vale), were accused of treason, and when their fathers came to King’s Landing to answer for their sons’ indiscretions, they were all killed after perfunctory trials by King Aerys. |
