Egeanin: Aes Sedai and women who can channel aren’t people and should be enslaved

Elayne and Nynaeve: :(

Egeanin: Understood. I will commit treason against my homeland and swear allegiance to the Aes Sedai

#deradicalization through learning to stan the Wondergirls is real #Egeanin was like ‘these people are nice to me and they’d be sad if my worldview came to pass so my worldview will now change’ #like she started making moves against the Seanchan before they even found out she was Seanchan #it was really just her going ‘but like them!’ and deciding the only solution to that was treason #the realest ride or die tbh #wheel of time #wot book spoilers #Egeanin Tamarath #elayne trakand #nynaeve al'meara

Wasted potential.

I really want to read more about these characters. About the relationship between the Aes Sedai and the former Sul'dam, about their arrival and training in the White Tower. Watch the adventures of Pevara and Androl. And of course, about Mat and Tuon, maybe she could even change her attitude towards Aes Sedai? I don’t really wonder what’s going on with Elayne, Moiraine, Aviendha, Nynaeve and Lan. And also absolutely don’t give a damn about the unfortunate Rand. But the Ming had an interesting storyline brewing in the Seanchan. In short, it’s a shame that Jordan was never able to write books about Mat and Tuon, it’s a shame.

I need everyone to know that when reading the circus plot with Egeanin, I imagined her wig as one of those cheap Cher wigs

Egeanin for character bingo

Bingo: Not achieved, but closer this time!

I like Egeanin a lot, even if she isn't one of my favorites, her arc of realizing 'wow empire is bad maybe' is really important to me, and one of those things I really hope makes it into the show, since it ties into a lot of the central themes of the Seanchan.

‘She’s Seanchan! Seanchan, Elayne!’ She sounded as if she hated the dark-haired woman for a personal wrong, which made no sense. Egwene had been in their hands, but not Nynaeve.

Well dear, Elayne, a wrong done to any of her kids hurts more for her than a wrong done to her. Egwene sobbed in her arms after all.

Poor Mat trying to do something nice for Tuon buying her a fancy necklace and having her turn around and use it to humiliate Egeanin instead as some sort of twisted punishment is so sad. Like he really was trying and it got thrown back in his face

Egeanin: Where is she now?

Last we saw of her, she had been released from Egwene's bond, was threatening to break a dude's arm (classic Egeanin :’) ) and instructing Logain to break the seals at the correct time. That's all we've got on her, canonically. What follows is my speculation.

She swore to serve the White Tower as da'covale and also swore personal loyalty to Egwene, so even with Egwene gone she's likely going to continue to hang around the White Tower, but I think initially she’s going to struggle to have anyone take her up on the offer. She probably makes everybody uncomfortable; she's Seanchan, she's going to be very deferential in a way that many of them will probably find unsettling, and she's going to remind them of poor dead Egwene, which will be either personally upsetting or possibly politically irritating, depending on how people felt about Egwene and how much of her policy they intend to continue.

Egeanin is persistent, and I'm sure she'd find her way to Cadsuane eventually, but Egeanin would have a bit of a struggle pushing Egwene's pet projects/policies, even if she knew what they were, given her lack of structural power. I imagine Cadsuane would pick Egeanin's brain eventually, and keep her around as a potential lever on Nyneave/Elayne/Mat/the Seanchan Empire, but not pay that much attention to her unless something Seanchan-related came up. I also think that given Cadsuane's experience with the captured Seanchan sul'dam and damane, she'd probably end up placing Egeanin with them in the White Tower. Cultural Deprogramming Assistant would end up being Egeanin's official job, which makes sense; she’s come full circle and is now Emotional Support Seanchan... to other Seanchan. (Which is really funny since I'm pretty sure no one in Seanchan could possibly have accused Egeanin of providing emotional support prior to the Randland invasion.)

Also, I could see Egeanin and Bayle assisting with the Warder training program, especially if there are female Warder wannabes! Not that I expect the White Tower to suddenly start actively recruiting female Warders, but honestly I could see women showing up at the WT (especially from Caemlyn), being told they aren't able to learn to channel, and hanging around (like Areina) to train as Warders instead. Probably Bayle starts helping out with the Warders first, since he's not doing anything else, and then Egeanin comes to spar, and eventually she gets asked to help train any female Warder candidates that show up. Honestly I would love to see the Warder community embrace Egeanin, she should have a community again and I feel like they'd get along.

Egeanin when she saves Elayne and Nynaeve from being mistakenly kidnapped by the guys she hired to kidnap sul'dam: So....you aren't wondering why those men randomly attacked you? Elayne: haha no this just happens to us

#its a kidnap or be kidnapped world when you're a wondergirl on the loose #this just happens when they walk outside #egeanin tamarath #elayne trakand #nynaeve al'meara #wheel of time #wot book spoilers

[moghedien]

"Women who could channel were dangerous animals rather than people."

honestly cracking up laughing at this thought from Egeanin because like, famous last words for someone about to get Wondergirled

like she is so deep in her Seanchan indoctrination even like up to the moment that she met Elayne and Nynaeve, and they really just broke her by being nice to her and treating her like a person, all while openly claiming to be Aes Sedai

#like the evil marathdamane treated her more like a person than the seanchan slave in this chapter does #of course having Elayne and Nynaeve just talk casually with her #and bicker with each other in front of her in non-serious ways and chatting casually with 'servants' and commoners like they're all friends #and having little moments where they all reach for spoons and forks the second they're alone because they don't know how to use chopsticks #even though eating like that isn't supposed to be proper and they'er all like grinning because they know theyre gonna choose to be vulgar #like OF COURSE they broke Egeanin and made her treasonous #this is like the first time that people with even an ounce of power treated her like a human being #and these people are supposed to be the MOST corrupt with power being Aes Sedai and Elayne being royalty #of course they broke her #i love her so much #wheel of time #wot book spoilers #egeanin tamarath #shadow rising #elayne trakand #nynaeve al'meara

I’m still like praying that Egeanin doesn’t get cut because I need her Seanchan deradicalization arc fr

But also because i need the dread next season of seeing Elayne and Nynaeve pal around with a Seanchan spy and have the audience just waiting for Egeanin to move against them, only for her identity to be revealed to the girls and Egeanin is just like “you’re so normal and my best friends and you made me normal and I love you and I would never betray you please let me die for you 🥺”

#I need to see the girlies shocked faces when they realized they accidentally deradicalized a Seanchan soldier #by being absolute freaks around her #egeanin is genuinely probably my favorite side character #because she like does truly go through it in the series #and like compare her first appearance to her last appearnace and its INSANE where she ended up from #i also need her around for Egwene's arc tbh #wheel of time #wot book spoilers #Egeanin Tamarath #elayne trakand #nynaeve al'meara #wot on prime #wot show spoilers

[moghedien]

If there’s no Egeanin this season just know I’ll be fine but I’ll cry myself to sleep every night until I die

#wheel of time #wot on prime #she’s SO IMPORTANT TO ME #SHES SO NECESSARY RAFE PLEASE #Egeanin Tamarath #wot book spoilers

OK SPOILER FOR LITERALLY THE LAST WHEEL OF TIME BOOK

but god if Egeanin DOES show up and they add a scene were Egeanin and Egwene have any kind of interaction in Falme when Egwene is a damane and Egeanin is full Seanchan brainwashed

and then that directly ties into during the Last Battle when Egeanin is willingly serving the White Tower and Egwene specifically and Egwene as the Amyrlin Seat bonds Egeanin as a warder

I will simply perish

#wheel of time spoilers #wot book spoilers #wot spoilers #wheel of time #wot on prime #a memory of light #god I just fucking love that moment because it shows how far both of them have come #like Egwene willing to trust a Seanchan woman and make her her Warder #and Egeanin willing to not just fully serve the Aes Sedai but let the AMYRLIN bond Egeanin to herself in a very invasive and intimate way #Nynaeve and Elayne really rocked that woman's world by just having lunch with her I swear #egeanin tamarath #egwene al'vere

[moghedien]

the loony toons duo are her best friends but they’ve forgotten about her existence

It’s always hilarious to me reading Egeanin in the Great Hunt and knowing that all it takes to break this woman of her indoctrination is hanging out with Nynaeve and Elayne for like a week

Equally hilarious that she hangs out with Nynaeve and Elayne, of all the circus clowns she coulda found, and is like “They’re so normal!”

#like I know she means that she was expecting Aes Sedai to be scarier than the Blood #but declaring them ‘normal’ is a stretch #wheel of time #the great hunt #great hunt #wot book spoilers #egeanin tamarath
