    Al'Thor and Al'Lan

    Why is it that for Rand, the Al is in the surname, while for Lan it's in his first name?

    Main issues?

    So what are your main issues with the show so far? Here is my short list: 1. MASSIVE focus shift. Because the show wanted to create some mystery around the identity of the Dragon Reborn, they put a lot more focus on other characters of the EF5. However, even AFTER his identity was discovered -...

    Entire season with book spoilers!

    Well, this show certainly had its ups and down, with the finale being the biggest “down” for me until now. I think what bothered me most about the show as a whole is not specific changes from the books to character arcs or whatever. I don’t care if Perrin had a wife. It's the general changes in...

    S1E7 “The Dark Along the Ways” —w/Book Spoilers

    Ok… WOW! Despite some differences from the book, this was by far one of the best episodes so far! The name is a bit misleading, since the ways take up a pretty small part of the episode, but the rest… The opening sequence was the best in the show so far! I LOVED the Aiel! The fighting style...

    A reread (maybe with audiobooks) is forthcoming?

    I haven’t done a reread since AMoL came out. Now that I watch the TV show, it honestly mostly makes me want to do a reread of the books! :P Not that I don’t like the show - I do, I think it’s great. But for some reason, all the missing details make me want to do a re-read! Anyone else...

    Technical aspects

    So, I know this might seem as nitpicking, but it really bothers me this show is not presented in 4K. I mean, really, this is 2021, almost 2022. Who presents a crown fantasy tv-show in HD anymore? 1080p is so 2005…

    I'm sorry... One of the FIVE of you?!

    I like what they did with the TV show. I understand some things need to be adjusted, and don't expect to see everything from the books in the show. But what the hell is with this "five of you" business? They knew exactly when the Dragon was born, Egwene and Nyneave aren't even the correct age...

    Henry Cavill cameo

    Someone in the Facebook group brought up Henry Cavill for a role. Apparently he's a fan of the books and read them all. I'll write here what I wrote there. I don't think he should have a big role. Instead, I thought it would be hilarious to bring him to a cameo, preferably as one of Graendal's...

    Quotes needed!

    Hi all! I am looking for quotes that represent the different people of the Wheel of Time, preferably something that talks about them. For example, I remember there was a saying about borderlanders protecting women, that a borderlander would always put himself between a woman and harm, or some...

    Senior Member status disappeared?

    My Gaidin status has disappeared from under my name, and I suddenly can't see half the forums. I can still see CE, but can't respond there. Is there a bug of some sort in the system?

    Floating images

    Is there a way to float pictures? Basically making it so that the text is next to the picture all along its border, not just one line at the bottom. Is there a way?

    Who is really sealed?

    I have a theory I wanted to share with you guys, bare with me here. We know that time in Randland is circular, repeating time and again. We know that each turning, a bore is drilled outside the wheel into the DO's "prison," and all hell breaks loose. However, we also know that the DO...

    So... How do they know about Cuendillar?

    We heard in the series that Cuendillar is not only indestructable, but that it's believed that things meant to hurt it make it stronger... My question is how do they know that? If it's indestructable, how do they know if it got stronger or not, since they have nothing that destroyed it and now...

    Things you liked, or didn't [WHOLE BOOK SPOILERS]

    If you have yet to finish AMoL, STOP READING RIGHT NOW! This thread WILL contain whole book spoilers. So, now that we have a thread devoted to the end of the book, it's time we payed attention to the rest of the book as well. What parts did you like? What parts didn't you like? Which part...

    Rand and Perrin

    After the battle at Dumai's wells, Perrin sais he is supposed to be there for Rand twice, or Rand would go down to disaster. He thinks (and it's probably true) that Dumai's Wells was the first time, but what was the second? I can't seem to remember when Perrin saved Rand a second time, helped...

    A year and a day?

    I am rereading some of the books before AMoL comes out, and I found this interesting thing I haven't noticed before: There's no need to bring a quote about the Aiel year and a day serving as Gai'shain... I wonder what is the meaning of a year and a day. Why that number? It can't possibly be...

    Twice dawns the day

    So, we had a thread about this a little while ago, with different theories about the meaning of that phrase... I just got a closer look at A Memory of Light's art cover, and it seems it's an eclips after all: Look at the backgroud, behind Rand. The sun is clearly covered by the moon (or at...

    How to seal the dark one for the last time?

    Just thought I'd bring this thread from the old forums, because I thought it was interesting. You can find the full thread here, though I'm not sure for how long. So if you want any more back messeges, you should go see them now :P I wasn't. I simply said that it wasn't he who decided that the...
