Prepared to dream, perhaps, of conquest? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

armed

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'prepared' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'dream perhaps of conquest?' is the wordplay.
'dream' can be anagrammed to 'ARMED'.
However, I'm not clear how this is indicated.

'to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for armed that I've seen before include "Provided with weapons" , "ready to fight" , "Bearing weapons" , "Munitioned" , "Prepared for battle" .)
