Perrin saving Rand

[Blade]

Not sure if this has been hashed or not (Yes I didn't bother looking things up) but I was reading through the books again and noticed Perrin's first encounter with the 'Prophet' masema. During their encounter Masema seemed unusually pleased about the prospect of being brought to rand and perrin also seemed to pick up a funny smell as well. Anyhow, I think that once masema is brought to Rand, Perrin needs to be there to save him the next time because only Perrin has a nose for how Masema's moods shift and will be able to sense that he's about to do something. Again, just a thought and it's prolly already been hashed before.

After KOD, I can not see Perrins plans for Masema still being about bringing him to Rand...Rather, bring him to the nearest tree and put a rope around his neck.

[trakand_01]

didnt Masema also consequently try every diversionary tactic in the book (no pun intended) to try and avoid coming face to face with Rand?

 

I think that the 'visions' of each other (Rand, Perrin, Mat) will have something to do with it.

[Sab]

Faile being kidnapped I think stopped him taking Masema to Rand.  Once Perrin got to see him more he started to realise what a loon he was. But yeah there is no more taking him to Rand plus if I remember right Masema took off after the fight with the Shaido. Plus Perrin now knows after Aram tried to kill him that Masema wants him dead.

I think Masema is like Korba in Dune Messiah.

Well, I think what ever is going to happen between the "Prophet" and Perrin it will most likely include the prophet getting killed or rand will do it.

[Kaznen]

I think Masema plans to kill Rand and blame Perrin for it (his propaganda has Perrin a "tamed" shadow spawn) the he and his followers will kill Perrin and Masema will control all the dragonsworn.

 

Of course he seems to have forgotten about Mat.

[Winterwinds]

Hehe, good luck to the prophet  ;) Mat would most likely (knowing his luck) decide to pay rand a visit when Masema would try and he would get an Ashendari though his head.

Hmm, I think Perrin having to be there for Rand a second time would be during his meeting with the borderlanders.

 

As for Masema, I think it'll come to a climax when Perrin meets with the Whitecloaks. Remember, Dain Bornhold and Byar want Perrin dead, and believe he is a shadowspawn. Masema as well.

 

Anyhow, it's always been Perrin's 'thing' to be stuck with groups of people who hate each other and manage to keep them from each others' throats. (e.g. Dumai's Wells army, Whitecloaks and Two Rivers men. Now WCs and Dragonsworn, Mayeners, Ghealdenians, TR men, Cha Faile)... Poor Perrin.

Perrin needing to be there when Masema & Rand meet, interesting theory.

Min's viewing I take to be about women who channel.  It would be some situation with the Seanchan if it is with Masema.

Dain Bornhold and Byar want Perrin dead, and believe he is a shadowspawn.

 

Bornhold and Byar were present when Perrin's family was slaughtered by Fain and his Whitecloaks. Bornhold became a drunk after this incident. Perrin thinks trolloks killed his family. If Perrin were to find out the truth? And he might if Bornhold or Byar confessed. In his last scene Byar seemed somewhat remorseful about what he had done as a Whitecloak. I don't know what Perrin would do, but I would not want to be near the working end of his hammer if he did find out.

 

It's going to be awkward if Perrin's band mets up with the Whitecloaks. Galad's mother has just saved by Perrin, and Byar and Bornhold are both loyal to Galad.

...With Masema tagging along who prolly hates the Whitecloaks (since they fought his Dragonsworn), and about 1000+ TR men who also dislike Whitecloaks... And Aes Sedai, two of them, and Aiel Wise Women, and Aiel.

 

As for Byar and Bornhold, yeah, if Perrin ever finds out that it was Fain who killed his family and they both just stood there.... HULK SMASH!
