There's a new "explore" tab on Prime that has character bios and an interactive map. (Supposedly, lots of screenshots on Twitter but it doesn't show up for me for some reason). More info here.

oooh!

...Moiraine is wearing pants in that picture. That's I think the first reference I've seen to her wearing pants. Remember how scandalized Elayne and Nynaeve were to wear pants when they were posing as circus performers?

I really, really love the pants everyone wears. Honestly, if you're going to adapt to TV a world full of powerful women who travel, fight, etc, having them all in dresses all the time just doesn't feel ... likely. Realistic, maybe. Why would Westlands women ride side saddle? Why would women who can fight trollocs and throw fireballs limit themselves to dresses? It doesn't make sense to have a story supposedly dedicated to flipping the gender binary on its head keep such an obviously patriarchal cultural artifact.

No I totally love it. I was just surprised because I hadn't noticed it before!

Also Abell is apparently now a bad person?

Yeah it sounds like the Cauthons aren’t going to be a respectable family anymore

Does anyone have a link to the trailer mentioned by the Twitter account? Apparently it's supposed to air today?

I haven't found anything other than the watch party link for it, so it's making me slightly suspicious. :cheeseeni:
