Are the towers of midnight where moiraine was rescued from? They bloody well couldnt be the towers in seachan and they cannot be the black tower.
It doesnt make much sense for the title to refer to all: the black tower and the tower of jenjei(spelling) and also the towers where moiraine was held. Maybe someone else can help me out here?
The Towers of Midnight are the Forsaken. In chapter 3, Egwene has a dream about 13 towers, falling one after another, leaving only six remaining. Including one falling, then rising up higher than any of the others. It is the forsaken. Well, maybe the Tower of Ghenji too, and possibly even the black tower, though there isn't a whole lot on the black tower in the book. Most WoT titles refer to multiple things, both literal and metaphorical.
