  1. That if was only when she saw Mat, Perrin, Rand, Egwene together, was it an if. Which is clearly the Last Battle, before Rand entered the Pit Of Doom, which easily could have gone either way. Rand, Nyneave and Moiraine alone showed certainty, enough to know that what those three were going to do was important. She just had no idea that sealing the Bore was that important a thing to do. All the spark viewings fighting the darkness were their actions from the Merrilor meeting, to the Last Battle, to the sealing of the Bore, and only when Moiraine, Nyneave and Rand were together did the viewing show the sparks winning.
  2. It was foreseen. Min saw that she had a part to play, as far back as Book 1. She saw sparks of light fighting the dark when it was just Moiraine and Nyneave alone in the room, and they exploded when she saw them both alone with Rand. What she saw in images, was the full sealing of the Dark One. Withour Moiraine or Nyneave, Rand fails his mission. Egwene and Elayne would both betray him for their positions and the entities they lead.
  3. The highlight for me was the Rand stuff. All of that was scary to read the first time.
  4. That is politics for you. It is boring if it works right. If it does not, then it gets VERY messy very quickly. Those pages also showed a totally different boon: one of the two Forsaken manipulating both sides of the White Tower, specifically Aran'gar working the Salidar Aes Sedai, did not catch what Egwene was doing either. It was the Dark One that specially ordered Egwene to be removed from the board, once he saw what she was doing.
  5. The three duels occured, because Demandred was as powerful as Rand at Merrilor, except he needed a circle of 72 to get to that power level. Which made him an army unto himself. The duels happened, because each time Demandred came close to shattering one of Mat's battle fronts, and a sign of Mat's Ta'veren nature throwing random things to change the outcome, and it did it by throwing three men that made Demandred drop his focus on the greater battle. The main thing, is that the third duel finally worked. The main issue, is that the battle with Demandred was not the prophesied Tarmon Gai'don. That was about to be fought at Shayol Ghul, AFTER Demandred had fallen, and needed Perrin and Mat to fight the two threats coming to battle.
  6. Got to disagree on that. If Judkins did not want the story done and did not love it, Rhuidean, and Mat with the Eelfinn would not exist. If he did not think that Siuan deserved a better send off than the off page death she got, and a better look at her character than even the books gave, she would not have showed up at all. She would just be name dropped the entire time. If Judkins was like DnD, Mat would have been killed off at the end of season 1, and would have done a stupid story to say Liandrin, or Lanfear did it. His story would have been totally cut out. Perrin if he was like the director of Last Jedi with Luke? He would be a drunk wife abusing hobo. The fact his favourite character is Egwene, we got her exactly how she is in the books character wise, as Rand was. Then, we got Faile, which is pretty much as I viewed her from the books.
  7. That is my thinking on this as well. WOT will not get another shot at the screen in live action. Maybe video gaming is an option, and maybe an animated series. But, those two mediums are its last chances, and after this cancelling, even those two options become far harder for anyone to justify the effort in trying, both in numbers and in word of mouth. It is a real shame. I was really enjoying it, and looking forward to what came after.
