Re: The Hunt: The Illian Desecration --- &RPaward

CHAPTER ELEVEN Jena of Troias held on for her life. The anemic sun was rapidly setting behind them, casting a veil of shadowplay to the swampy woodlands around them. The only light was held by Viellain, a sputtering torch that casts frantic shadows. But even shrouded in darkness, the presence of th...

Re: Wheel of Time Season 2 Episode 8 (finale) Discussion

Lots of Q&A now, a lot of them with glimpse of the (lack of) insight on their book adaption "So why is this not valid for his peers like Eggy or Nyn? Nynaeve showed how powerful she is in S1E4. Egwene, multiple times already. How is that only Rand needs slow build up? Also as he will be stronger tha...

Wheel of Time Season 2 Episode 8 (finale) Discussion

The Wheel of Time Season 2 Episode 8 "What Was Meant To be" Release date: 10/6/2023 Season Finale My initial impressions: Cold open with Lews Therin and Ishamael: Stupid. Complete rewrite of the lore, and I am not convinced the writers will be better at it then Jordan. Nynaeve/Elayne: pointless c-pl...

Re: Wheel of Time Season 2: Episode 7 Discussion *spoilers*

Rand: I like the very little that we've been dripped of his training by Lan Lanfear: O'Keefe continues to do a great job as Lanfear. Except with the plot making her walk around foregate just setting fire to everything is a little brute force for her character. It would make sense more for her to sen...

Re: Wheel of Time Season 2: Episode 6 Discussion

I think my biggest issues with the battles so far after looking back through them (and I hope they get fixed, because they are some pretty big battles coming). 1. The bigger battles are just so small (and this is budget related). Like the Logain vs White Tower battle in S1. So few extra, the scope s...

Re: Wheel of Time Season 2 Episode 4 Discussion

I missed the saa on my watching, but it does seem like that is what happens. So likely all the Forsaken will be able to use the True Source to heal themselves from normal deaths (and not doing the reincarnating new body route), necessitating balefire. At least that makes more sense than Lanfear bein...

Re: Wheel of Time Season 2 Episode 4 Discussion

My first impressions. Cold open. I can see where they're going with the Seals and the Forsaken and I can get with the change (Basically each of the Forsaken is trapped by each Seal). Moiraine. I think this filler is okayish. The theme of not aging while everyone else, is underexplored in the books. ...
