Re: It sounds a bit early for Lan's death SamJ Send a noteboard - 28/07/2010 08:43:31 AM
I somewhat expect Lan to die in the LB (I'm undecided about Moiraine, but somewhat I find her death at least as likely as Cadsuane's, say), but I don't really expect RJ would get rid of Lan right at the start. He would have wanted to milk Lan's war for all its worth first, and I'll be disappointed if the Borderlands rulers never get to see a bit the "Uncrowned King" in action, leading the army they should have lead. I don't think Lan will die (if he does, but there's instances of potential foreshadowing that Nynaeve might become a widow) until Perrin's ready to take over from him in the Borderlands - mid LB stuff, so first half of AMOL would be my guess.


I like your thinking, but think there will be an added complication. I think that there will come a point, probably in AMOL where we will believe Lan is dead, but he won't be and will instead do a last minute rescue of someone. I think this because Nynaeve doesn't hold his bond meaning there's a convenient structue available for RJ/BS to trick us. So we will see Nynaeve as a widow but might still end up with Lan alive at the end.

My bets are on Rand's actual death - 30/07/2010 07:40:06 AM 846 Views
Lan's death and Nynaeve's reaction would fit "heart-wrenching", Cadsuane's not so much for most *NM* - 29/07/2010 03:50:34 PM 359 Views
Certainly - 29/07/2010 05:34:11 PM 795 Views
