it's concerning that I've seen multiple people commenting Lews Therin is attractive. please, thinking Lews Therin is hot is the leading cause of becoming a forsaken...

THAT SEASON FINALE!
light, where to begin, a disjointed ramble of things I observed:
Dovie’andi se tovya sagain! - Mat said the words, he said the words!
And he made his own ashandarei! I hope he gets the raven-inlaid one though because I’m sure no one wants him running around with that dagger
And I know he’s going to get a massive S3 glow-up because he sees himself as MORE, now. Yay Mat!
RAND exploding the shit out of the Seanchan including Turak; nice way around his general lack of swordtraining which I’m sure will be remedied
Once the Heron, to set his path!
The interplay between Rand (and Lews Therin before him), Lanfear, Ishamael - they were besties in the Age of Legends, lmao!
I had expected the intro to be a high society polyam party they were attending, not the Sealing of Ishamael, 🤭
The Warder bond was beautiful, flowing, intimate, just what I imagined when reading these books some 25 years ago
I knew Moiraine was gonna say Lan was her better!
I’m so glad they’re back together though, legendary qpp
Nice to see the S1 intro sequence with the gorgeously woven Aes Sedai tapestry
I was a bit sad Nynaeve didn’t heal Elayne OR Rand but she DID swear to make Seta’s mother curse the first kiss her father ever gave her and THAT was cool
Hopper, my beloved! 😩 I would be chopping Whitecloaks too!
It was so satisfying to see Perrin obey his wolfly instincts already!
Elayne being the one to heal Rand’s wound was an interesting choice, and you can tell he was dazzled by her!
Book lines, book lines, book lines making me have conniptions every time one was uttered
“From birth to death I serve the Blood.”
UNO I KNEW YOU WERE COMING YA SHEEP-GUTTED MILK DRINKER
“For the Light, and Shinowa!” still gave me chills even without an expanded story behind it for Ingtar
Egwene al’Vere. I hope she earns a title of “the Unbroken” someday. Remember, Nynaeve even said that about her when Egwene was captured by Whitecloaks in S1!
Egwene, spitting out the damane gag and refusing to rain down fire on innocents, ah my girl, that’s that Two Rivers steel
Egwene, collaring Renna and choking her to death, being stronger than Renna, being able to withstand the pain of that because that’s exactly what Renna taught her
Egwene later, with that amazing shield against Ishamael to protect her friends!
Lanfear pushing Lan and Moiraine out of the ocean Waygate was very unexpected but totally within Lanfear’s lane, just to keep Moiraine away from Rand
Lanfear working to sell the Seals to Bayle Domon, which was so lmao also, and it really enhanced her utter shock when she entered the room later with the Seals all broken.
M O G H E D I E N 🕷️
She is perfectly creepy, perfect in every way. I can’t wait to see her tear shit up, or to see how she will be used in S3 and beyond
Never expected her to cage Lanfear in her webs, either, dang. Lillen Moiral wasn’t near so strong as Mierin. But we know some things are just Talents, and Moghedien is better in Tel’aran’rhiod than Lanfear
Did you notice Rand’s wound swirling with evil bits throughout the healed part? Really cool effect if you catch it
Aviendha, Bain, and Chiad showing they can fight just as well in close quarters in a city as in the Three-Fold Land; and then later acknowledging Rand as Car’a’carn
Though I’d hoped we’d get some good old He Who Comes With The Dawn in here too
Moiraine’s outstanding torpedo weaves that fucked up the Seanchan boats! And she understands the stakes - if the Dragon is gentled, or harmed, or captured, everyone’s life is in danger and that includes her and Lan
Anyhow fuck the Seanchan
Did it look like Suroth got blown up too? Does that mean she’s dead? I guess we’ll see who gathers in the scattered remnants of the Hailene!
The first “I’m not Lews Therin” from Rand
Mat taking a moment to mention Rand’s “shit hair” to Perrin while they were in the mix, lmao
That shadow ashandarei is really scary, it is a laser knife (lightsaber?) on a stick
I can’t wait for Perrin and Hopper to meet again in the Wolfdream
Speaking of which, I think Perrin’s eyes are permanently golden now
I cried at the coming of the Heroes of the Horn, I’m sure many of you did too 😭
Cool Hero fighting effects, I liked those
BIRGITTE SILVERBOW MY LOVELY
I figured Min’s vision of Mat “killing” Rand would be something like this, an accident, not an intentional thing
His blood on the rocks of Shayol Ghul…
AL’LAN MANDRAGORAN, the Uncrowned King, Sworn to the Flame, bonded again, fighting as he was meant to, just slicing through armies, snatching arrows out of the air and stabbing people with them, chef’s kiss
I wonder if Nynaeve’s “failures” and inability to channel at these vital moments will give her the drive to break her block
Ishamael’s channeling at the end was really impressive, a testament to how much more he knows than Rand
I hope that’s not the last we see of Fares Fares, he was remarkable as Ishamael and a truly enjoyable villain
And since they didn’t have the Dragon banner of Lews Therin Telamon found with the Horn like in the books, Moiraine saw to it that he was heralded with literal fire
This I can imagine many people seeing from far away, and of course rumor travels further
The Falmen sure seem to appreciate it and of course the Seanchan are gone for now
Lanfear asking the LIGHT to protect Rand at the end is something interesting and NOT LOST ON ME
I REALLY ENJOYED IT and am looking forward to a full rewatch of S1 and S2!

Ok still on my " Robert Jordan made all the female WOT characters wlw by accident" train, the white tower ritual to check there aren't men in the room is everyone showing eachother their tits (and we're ignoring Jordan's weird bioessentialist shit)
The book CLEARLY states you can make illusion tits, which makes the whole process redundant, BUT they do it anyway
Which either implies no one has noticed the fact this ritual is literally useless, or that they all just want to see eachother's tits before a meeting

The wheel of time is among my favorite book series' and it is unfair that my favorite series is now also one of IMO the best ways to create a respectful adaptation.
Adaptations of novels to television, movies, video games or basically any visual medium)l, improve the identity of their source text in many ways. We should judge them first and foremost NOT by their ability to bring the text to a different medium, but by whether they show parts of the world, characters, and themes we didn't get within the book. There is actually a LOT of room in this space and creators who do NOT use it are often doing their art and their source text a disservice.
TV adaptations are more like music videos than they are like fan art. Wheel of Time the TV show has so far done an incredible job doing that.
Here's a few examples of things we never got before the show.
1: The detailed emotional experience of a warder after the death of the Aes Sedai, until his own death.
2: Anyone talking about a warder after they have died like they're a human being (so fitting it was Lan too)
3: The direct consequences for many questionable actions for certain characters including Moraine, Rand, and Lanfear.
4: Mat unshackles himself from captivity.
5: Thom singing the laments of the past.
6: One of our own heroes becoming a hero of the horn.
7: A version of Perrin's arc with the white cloaks being formally established with some goddam stability.
8: Ishamael's philosophy seeping into the collective culture of the dark friends.
9: Lanfear and Ishamael having any amount of direct interaction.
10: Moraine reconnecting with any of the Damodreds.
11: Displays of material and hierarchical culture for tons of groups but especially the Aiel, The Tower, and The White Cloaks.
12: Rand works through his feelings about his own impending madness by getting to know some men going through mental trauma.
13: Nyneve gets to meet some of the people Lan considers family.
14: Complex takes on characters like Mat, Nyneave, and Moraine's family lives.
15: More involvement from secondary characters like Min, Verrin, Tomas, Allana, and Loial.

The thing I really love about Egwene’s victory is that apart from figuring out the thing, the thing she won by was - like Renna said, she’s still her damane. She feels twice the pain. But she has been in that pain and been in it and been in it. (The pain and the other thing both). And Renna hasn’t ever felt it.
(And they show this so well, we see her she’s enduring it as she does what she does and we just got reminded and we know this is what she’s doing.)
(-And Renna knows that Egwene doesn’t have to stop if she gives in, and she know if she gives in Egwene can kill her which otherwise she can. But she does anyway because she can’t stand it).
(Also I love that Egwene’s defiance, which she did without any reason to think she’d be saved from the results, is very likely the reason she and Renna specifically survived, because they were at the center away from the walls.)
