Way too many of them got nothing and in the end were completely, or almost completely, a waste of ink.

I think that R. J. would have given Bela at least a paragraph for her death scene or at least minor mentions from her former riders over the years about their mounts tiring or something to make us think of her.

And honestly, I do think he meant for all of the main characters to survive. Egwene's story arc actually ended on multiple odd notes, and I think at some point, Mr. Sanderson was just trying to avoid botching it!

What was the "ending" that RJ had in mind for all of these years? Anonymous2000 - 20/03/2013 04:37:22 AM 1479 Views
That was what he wrote, so I would say yeah Nighthawk - 20/03/2013 03:50:40 PM 907 Views
But was it only that one small, specific scene? Not the entire epilogue chapter? *NM* Anonymous2000 - 20/03/2013 08:13:14 PM 418 Views
No, it was the whole epilogue Nate - 20/03/2013 08:29:39 PM 1142 Views

There were a LOT of parallels between the epilogue and the first prologue in EOTW ImmanuelXavier - 20/03/2013 11:50:45 PM 807 Views
Thanks.....very good info! *NM* Anonymous2000 - 21/03/2013 12:51:35 AM 325 Views
The entire story, including the re-Sealing of Shai'tan's bore, was RJ's story. ImmanuelXavier - 20/03/2013 11:56:45 PM 903 Views
Oh, I'm sure BS wrote all of the main points that RJ wanted..... Anonymous2000 - 21/03/2013 12:51:08 AM 952 Views
Rand was already mad by that point. This is pretty well established. *NM* ImmanuelXavier - 21/03/2013 04:02:33 AM 360 Views
He was going mad for mundane reasons, but he was actually going mad faster Cannoli - 21/03/2013 04:56:07 AM 1284 Views
I'm of the opinion that we we will never know the exact details RugbyPlayingAshaman - 21/03/2013 10:11:43 PM 873 Views
I like to think that he intended to give more of the secendary characters their payoff HyogaRott - 22/03/2013 02:48:47 AM 769 Views
