Borias said:Eh, I was ok with it being a bit abrupt. There's still plenty of time that could potentially be filled in before the gateway pops up and they can go hang out with Perrin. Also, this was from Mat's POV, and he's not the type of guy to hang around and watch while they get all mushy and stuff, hence him going off and finding that pot.
Also all the way through the tower Thom was being very gentle with Moraine and even before them leaving he sings a song "Sweet whispers of Tomorrow" and during which Mat wonders "if he was playing for Moraine. A last, melancholy song for a failed rescue."
It could very well be that Thom is playing a song of farewell for Moraine showing his love for her.
Just a thought.
