Ok, so I haven't started reading it yet. :look:

But I thought it would be cool to have a place to talk about the things we find in it that are cool or enlightening. :D

I heard that Harriet read it last night at the reading. I need to read it when I get home (unless it's online somewhere?).

If you read some of the comments it's supposed that now Rand can just change the Pattern that he basically willed her back to life

:rofl Wow, that's fantastic. I haven't started reading yet but I definitely don't mind spoilers in this thread - that's the entire point of the Companion IMO. :)

I might cry for the second time over Bela if she is alive. But overjoyed tears this time.

So I'm totally going through and reading the stuff I want to know about most, since I don't have to worry about spoilers :)

But the entry on the Tuatha'an....
The song didn't exist?!? Sonofa....

Regarding the Tuatha'an:
D:

I always figured it was the song that the Aiel and Ogier sung in the fields to make crops grow, and that some partnership with the Aiel and the columns would help them re-discover it.

Me too, Elania. I think the Companion's commentary makes sense, though, even if I may not like it much.

I read Mat‘s first and I was disappointed there was no little tidbit, even whether he had actually been born outside the Two Rivers (which I always kinda wanted cleared up - Moiraine was obviously interested in him for his birthday and I had hoped there was just a bit more intrigue about which of the three it could have been with at least them all also born outside the Two Rivers)

Now I'm starting back at A

Uh... did we already know how Taringail Damodred died? Or was it mentioned and I just forgot?

Edit: Never mind, I checked our library and found out that it's strongly hinted in TSR Ch 17.
