That being the group that sets out from Emond's Field in tEotW, plus their significant others, with Gawyn being a possible exception. To be honest we know that most of them survive already, Nicola's Foretelling reveals that Rand and his ladies will survive TG, Min's vision of the broken crown around Perrin means he and Faile have to survive until she gets the Saldaean crown. RJ was planning on doing more novels with Mat and Tuon.

Which of Nicola's foretellings are you referring to? And Min's vision could come true early in aMoL if Tenobia dies.

Mat and Tuon will live, yes, but Nynaeve and Lan? Every chance of them dying.


Nicola's Foretelling, "The lion sword, the dedicated spear, she who sees beyond. Three on the boat, and he who is dead yet lives. The great battle done, but the world not done with battle. The land divided by the Return, and the guardians balance the servants. The future teeters on the edge of a blade."

For Min's vision to come true early on Tenobia and Bashsere would have to die. Of course that's entirely possible, but I don't think it likely. Perrin is also strongly connected to rebuilding after TG, which makes me think that they will both survive.

Lan has a very good chance of dying, except then Nynaeve would be really sad. Nynaeve has to survive to bring Rand back to life. Also, Min viewed a baby with a sword around Lan way back in tEotW and RJ said all of Min's visions refer to the future, so unless Nynaeve is pregnant, Lan has to survive TG.
Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

So who thinks Elayne will die in aMoL? - 29/02/2012 04:02:07 AM 1966 Views
Given the various Foretellings and Min Viewings the only way Elayne can die - 29/02/2012 05:48:50 AM 1065 Views
Dying in childbirth would be totally lame - 29/02/2012 09:34:47 AM 1059 Views
There is the one vision Min had of Aveinda where she was going to have 4? babies but it was odd *NM* - 29/02/2012 04:53:46 PM 501 Views
That's nothing to do with Elayne - 29/02/2012 05:19:39 PM 1043 Views
Or does it? - 10/03/2012 06:21:53 PM 863 Views
She's already gone from Caemlyn at the timeof the attack, at the meeting in Merrilor - 29/02/2012 05:29:27 PM 1227 Views
Going to have to agree 100% *NM* - 29/02/2012 06:42:15 PM 560 Views
I also get the feeling that RJ isn't going to kill off any main characters - 29/02/2012 10:44:29 PM 885 Views
Ok... - 01/03/2012 03:23:11 AM 932 Views
practically speaking you're correct. But this is a fantasy novel with a pro-protagonist tone - 01/03/2012 04:24:38 PM 889 Views
I disagree... - 01/03/2012 06:29:32 PM 1070 Views

is there any chance that the broken crown could refer to Manethrean? (sp?) - 05/03/2012 02:10:17 AM 986 Views

I didn't know Naelson was a Darkfriend, or Tylin either. What about Jaim? - 02/03/2012 01:45:57 AM 1055 Views
they're not main characters either - 02/03/2012 05:58:13 AM 996 Views
I wouldn't even consider Morgase to be a MAIN character. - 02/03/2012 12:28:41 PM 996 Views
Verin is the most significant character to die that I recall - 01/03/2012 04:50:51 PM 988 Views
