Key to the final battle is in Matt's first "Lucky" incident. Mndrew Send a noteboard - 15/01/2011 04:11:02 AM
Simple theory which, after reading ToM seems even more likely. The key to Rand's victory over the DO lies in the object Matt brought into the world in his first brush with his "luck". In tEotW Matt isn't sure why he brought the dagger out of Shadar Logoth, just that he was holding it when everyone ran. Now we haven't seen much of this thing since PF went wandering, but we know it is perhaps even more powerful since the cleansing.
With SL being used to in the cleansing in the evil vs. EVIL capacity, I deem it likely that somehow the dagger will provide a big ole key in that last battle.
Personally, I hope it's not in PF's hands, as that would smack a bit too much of a LotR rip off, as so many have pointed out.

Thoughts?

If you prefer, "The pattern working thru him" rather than "lucky" - 20/01/2011 01:14:35 AM 972 Views
Possibly true, but it's debatable if that was Mat's luck - 15/01/2011 10:04:45 AM 1078 Views
actually, his luck started much AFTER the dagger *NM* - 15/01/2011 01:28:12 PM 460 Views
he was ta'veren even then so his luck was likely in place already - 15/01/2011 04:47:42 PM 905 Views

About his luck... Does anyone still remember Liandrin and the 12 other Black Ajah sisters? - 15/01/2011 07:36:42 PM 1300 Views
Maybe it will come up in AMoL and be used against him? - 16/01/2011 03:55:39 AM 1054 Views
Not sure, but here's the excerpt - 16/01/2011 04:08:23 AM 948 Views
The second seems much more likely, and in keeping with the series. - 16/01/2011 06:05:20 AM 917 Views

I always figured that was a plot device - 17/01/2011 12:01:23 AM 992 Views
