    So many references to a hand cut off... in TGH, it is part of Min's visions around Elayne.

    Love your observations, @Alexr al'Petros ! I have reached Chap 22 of TGH and it starts very much like you said, with Moirane exclaiming: "Nothing is happening as I expect!" and continues in one of my favorites sparring exchanges between her and Lan: "Your humility, Lan Gaidin, has always been...

    I am - very timely I must say - arriving to the White Tower with the Amyrlin, Egwene and Nynaeve, from Fal Dara. Totally sharing Nynaeve's stomach for boats :sick2:

    Yes, that was my thought as well. The line caught my eye as an interesting comment, given the unfolding of the story on these two points :-) As a first time reader (many moons ago), I think hearing this from the ruling Amyrlin sets Egwene's later accomplishment as an even greater feat.

    Chapter 34: Tigraine, the Blight, and the fact that she might still be alive (or her descendant be the legitimate heir to the throne of Andor) are all mentioned in the span of 3 sentences.

    Yes, I was thinking the same: a lot more foreshadowing than I had realized!

    Chapt 26, arrival to Whitebridge: am I dreaming or is Michael Kramer voicing the doubts in Rand's mind (one could say the seductive voice of the shadow) like he later voices Lanfear? :oops: Stroke of genius if you ask me... @Fenya al'Caem , re: chapt 17 -

    Hang in there! :hug Escaping Aridhol: I don't think I ever connected the dots before, when Rand thinks he's about to die and , despite his highlighting his "luck".
