The Dragon Reborn - Chapters 9-11

 





Ch9 - Wolf Dreams 



So Aes Sedai can have the power of Dreaming; so what does that mean? 


In Perrin’s dream, Who was the bloody man? Oh no the next dream has  Lanfear in it; oh fucking shit this is really bad (there were white pointed archways that led into a bigger room with furniture carved, gilded and inlaid with ivory). This makes me think of the Place in Tear Rand  is trying to get to. Like a way of foretelling events that will eventually happen perhaps. 


Page 115 - “Run now! You must not be here now. Danger. Great Danger. Worse than all the Neverborn. You must go. Go now! Now!” - I was thinking what “danger” was Hopper referring to in the dream; something horrible/terrifying will happen in the future to Perrin or someone else perhaps. 


WTF would Hopper go for Perrin’s throat? We also think he’s dead, but is he really dead; or is this a vision of something terrible to come? But in reality Hopper was just trying to scare Perrin out of the dream and realized Hopper actually died and can’t possibly be alive. 


I’m confused was Perrin wearing the bloody clothes of the strange man in the dream the whole time? 


I’m really confused why the bloody clothes of the strangely dressed man came out of the dream let alone Perrin wearing them when he woke up. 


I’m starting to think the strange man’s bloody clothes had something to do with the blood turning into real blood on Perrin’s clothes; maybe he’s warning Perrin of something to come? 


Rand PoV  


Page 113-114 - It was awesome to see saidin actually working for once how he wanted it to(“A bar of white light, solid as steel. Liquid fire”)regarding when the dog went straight for Rand and the dog vanished. This certainly seemed like a breakthrough for Rand compared to his other uncontrolled instances with saidin.  I’m also starting to think one of the dogs Rand encountered might’ve been Noam. 



Ch10 - Secrets 



Egwene using one power to avoid them being captured to get Matt to White Tower (125-126), Egwene felt it was not using the power as a weapon (127) 


Page 125 through 126 - Egwene felt using the One Power against them Whitecloaks was needed to prevent them from being captured (Egwene had one instance of being captured and she won’t let it happen again) as well as to get Matt to the White Tower in time. But then Verin tells Egwene she broke one of the Oaths ( “An Aes Sedai does not use the Power as a weapon except against Shadowspawn, or in the last extreme to defend her life”) and I see why Egwene used the Power out of personal gain but also as a way to help a friend out so Mat has a better chance of living. 



Ch11 - Tar Valon 



133 - When Egwene, Verin,Nynaeve,Mat, Hurin and Elayne are near the White Tower makes me think of “The Wizard of Oz” when Dorthy, the time man and the scarecrow get to the Emerald City for the Wizard to cure their problems. 


Now I’m curious what the Amyrlin would want to see Egwene, Nynaeve and Elayne for. 


I’m also with the girls hoping Mat is being healed since they are stuck in their rooms.

The Great Hunt - Chapter 29 : Seanchan

Image
  Ch.29  Fill out after I read chapter  Symbol : It looks like some sort of helmet. It might go hand in hand with the chapter. This looks like a Seanchan helmet and could just be showing what helmets these people wear.  On the hardcover edition of TGH I’m starting to think the creature on top of the rocks is a Seanchan and same with the ones on the back cover.  Chapter title : The title of the chapter is Seanchan. This title is referring to the tribe of Seanchan and probably in particular the Captain, that's a woman.  Main Points of the Chapter   Mentioned characters : Geofram Bornhald, Byar, Muadh (Whitecloak questioner), Child Jeral, Child, Earwin, Child Wuan, Arthur Hawkwing Mentioned characters : Yarin, Caban, Turak  351,275 the watchers : “Bornhald pulled off his gauntlets and sat at one of the tables. He knew they called themselves the Seanchan, and Hailene. He had enough of the Old Tongue to know the the latter meant Those Who Come Before,...

The Great Hunt - Chapter 45 : Blademaster

Image
Ch.45  - These questions were brought to you by the Gleeman’s Apprentice Podcast.   Nyneave  Nynaeve channeled at the collars of two damane and they fell to the ground.  Initial plan was: Ambush Sul'dam to get dress+a'dam -> one of the girls take dress other where collar -> go to Damane house New plan: Nynaeve just put a sack on the sul’dam’s head and collar the sul’dam’s neck and use the sacked sul’dam to get into the building with all the damane(where Egwene is being held) and they take the sack of the sul’dam’s head before going in.  Nyneave doesn’t want to collar Elayne.  And Nynaeve takes the sul’dam’s dress and they switched  clothes because the dress fit Nynaeve better and the sul’dam was dressed in a dress they prepared earlier to look like a damane dress.  Nynaeve has power over Seta. Seta promised not to tell anyone and she’s the leashed one.  Now they are headed to the a Lion’s Den ( aka where all the damane are kept)....
