Also, Yoeli ignoring orders and helping Ituralde was touching. Reminded me of Gandalf riding out to save Faramir after Denethor doomed him.
I also liked Rand's interactions with Nynaeve. Even in TGS these were great ("Thank you for caring when I cannot"
, and I liked the "don't let them change you" comment with reference to the White Tower. Very appropriate, and it shows that Rand knows that Egwene isn't as mature as he is (which implies that RJ intended this).

But rather than Gandalf (though I agree your analogy is apt) he reminded me more of the movie version of Haldir. When Helm's Deep seems lost, the Elves arrive! Aragorn gives Haldir a hug! And then...poor Haldir.
Also, I too very much liked Rand's parting comment to Nynaeve.
The chief difficulty Alice found at first was in managing her flamingo.
A small thing, really

I think the content of the letter was very "Mat", however even Mat would write better, imo *NM*

Lady +1. The content was right, but the mistakes were overdone

Especially since in aCoS we already have an example of his writing and it's perfectly fine.

Maybe we're supposed to think Mat intentionally wrote it that way
