Of course, that's kind of a silly thing for me to say since we won't know until the series is over (or this book).
I just think with Lan we've been beat over the head with it so much. He's on a mission to die fighting the shadow. He knows he's going to die. He's dead already. blah blah blah. I just don't see it as RJ's style of foreshadowing. It seems more to me like like RJ was going to have fun by making happen the opposite thing that Lan expects to happen. He'll die old in bed. Then Nynaeve will marry some really hot guy whose face isn't made of jagged mountain peaks.

Well I don't think it was too big of a scene or RJ would have written it I think.

You say that as if RJ was able to write all the scenes he wanted to before he died.

I can resist the urge. It's basically just a survey after all. *NM*

Lan's death and Nynaeve's reaction would fit "heart-wrenching", Cadsuane's not so much for most *NM*
