[A Memory Of Why]

As for the snakes and foxes, if you look closely at some of the Aiel rugs from the teaser, there are some patterns that hint very strongly that the snakes and foxes exist in the tv version.

That's a cool detail, I've been thinking there's a good chance we'll get the Fin, though probably only one visit.

 

With Mat likely going to Tanchico, he'll need a way to fast travel to the other side of the continent and the Fins would be a great way to tie that together.

 

I also think Moraines hat is telling.. 🤔

 

I'm thinking we'll be getting a lot of book 3 Mat, he doesn't do much in book 4 and is to soon for book 5 and they need to do something with him like..

 

• Proper healing at the tower and leaving the dagger there for Fain to pick up.
• Crazy gambling night and introducing his luck and / or "dice".
• Meeting Thom and promising to deliver the Elaynes letter.
• Saving an Illuminate like a hero from a gleemans tale.
• Overhearing an assassination plot against Elayne.
• Meeting the Queen and Gabril.
• Heads to Tanchico to save the day, maybe even kills the assassin and / or rescues the girls in some fashion

And finish it off with him going through a strange doorway, interacting with strange beings and hung from the tree of life to satisfy his Odin arc..

 

Maybe..?

I could see something like this: Mat learns of a plot against the wonder girls who have gone off to Tanchico. He and Min run off to save them.

 

Mat meets Thom in Tanchico. Hijinx ensue. Saves the girls. (Meets Alludra?)

Ends up in Panarch's palace. There's a twisted door. Falls through. Meets the Finn. Ends up swinging from a tree in Rhuidean just as Rand makes in back from getting tattooed.

I think it's more likely to be a season-ending cliffhanger after the showdown at Alcair Dal in episode 8, but I also believe something very much like that is going to happen.

I was thinking Mat goes into the doorway just before or during the Moggy fight..

 

Which sets up the last scene with Rand leading the Aiel back to Rhuidean to save him bring hung from the tree of life. Moraine freaks out, tries to heal him and gives Rand a letter just as Lanfear appears..

 

After the commotion Mat picks up Moraines hat which compliments his new spear and medallion combo.

 

End credits scene: Samuel goes to Shayol Ghul.. let the lord of Chaos rule...

This Reddit Megathread from WotShow has compiled all of the early season reviews.

 

 

 

The reactions seem to be very positive for the most part.  Opinions seem to say season 3 is a vast improvement on season 2.  A lot of scenes seem lifted straight from the book.  Episodes 4 and 7 are the clear standouts.  The Finale seems very divisive once again but interestingly someone of the people who were very critical of Season 1 and 2's finale(WotUp and Nae'blis) seem very positive about this finale.

Not really a news article, but an interesting piece...

The TV fantasy gold rush is over. Now maybe Wheel of Time can finally be itself

It can be something more than just the ‘next Game of Thrones’
