Three-Eyed Crow/Theories

== His Identity ==
It has been heavily implied that "Brynden" is actually Brynden Rivers, a bastard son of King Aegon IV Targaryen. In the cave, the Three-Eyed Crow tells Bran that he was once a lord in the Seven Kingdoms named Brynden. Later, he also mentions that he had two brothers; one that he loved, and one that he hated. This may be a reference to Daeron II Targaryen, whom he loved, and Aegor Rivers, whom he hated. He also mentions a woman that he desired, which may be a reference to Shiera Seastar. This theory is also strengthened by his red eyes, pale skin, and white hair. Brynden Rivers was also Lord Commander of the Night's Watch at one point, and during his service, he went missing beyond the Wall. On top of these striking similarities, the Three-Eyed Crow lives beyond the Wall, in the Haunted Forest.
