I'm a tad let down by the revelation. Years of wondering and theorizing and somehow the reveal felt a bit odd. Of course Nakomi being the Creator's avatar was one of the most famous theories out there, and I'm not mad that she's Jenn Aiel, but a bit more foreshadowing would had been appreciated. The fact that we get this whole thing of the surviving Jenn serving as avatars to the Creator and subtly nudging the course of history by a word here or there in a reference book 10 years later feels like cheating. I wish we had gotten a few more appearances of mysterious characters that fit the bill not necessarily through the main story (Rand's story that is) but through some in world legends and stories.
