Back in CoT, ch.7, Perrin noticed this Super Darkhound Pack in Altara, which was apparently hunting someone with urgency (around 3 months ago in the timeline, IIRC).
It was then mainly speculated that Fain, one of the ta'veren, the gholam, Tuon or Loial might be the prey. However, after TGS and the beginning of ToM, namely the prologue and Mat's first chapter, it seems rather unlikely that either of those characters is actually the one the DH are hunting (at least if the DH aren't really miserable hunters..), because the Pack was never mentioned again.
So, who are the DH actually hunting or what is their task, and where the heck are they?

Or maybe Fain simply went mini-Mashadar on them and killed them off. Since we haven't seen him onscreen in several books it's easily possible that he could have had this ability well before TOM. Then used the Ways to head to the blight.
DomA's theory is interesting though ... But IMO is a much more likely Forsaken controlled thing than a ST controlled one.
Ryan's thought seems to support Demandred being in Murrandy gathering armies for a surprise attack. This would not shock me either.
Domani Drag Queen in the White Tower ... Aran'gar watch out!
Where is that damned Darkhound Pack?

I think it'll stick to my theory on this (TOM prologue spoilers involved)

DHs hunting wolves ... It doesn't matter who hatched it ... Just seems like something a FS would do

It was just an off handed comment that I liked the theory, wasn't countering anything
