but from a reader perspective, I'm guessing most of our favorite characters will survive, so to us, it will be a blow out by the Light. We'll read that thousands of good guys die, but we won't know their names.
Aka, the un-important will die.
I'll be disappointed if at least one of the major / important minor characters doesn't die a FINAL death. For me that list is Rand, Mat, Perrin, Egwene, Elayne, Nynaeve, Faile, Aviendha, Min, Lan, Gawyn and Thom. They are either characters we've seen a lot of and are attached to in some way, or in the case of Gawyn, someone that's very important to Egwene.
A Magnificent Seven type finish - except only Rand, Mat and Perrin of all of the above ride off into the sunset would be brilliant - however I'd happily settle for some 'personal' deaths.
"The Great battle done but the world not done with battle."
It will be a victory for the light but with such widespread devestation it will seem like a defeat. Main charecters may well survive. Read Perrins reaction to the victory in Dumais Wells and multiply it out for the whole world.
Humanity will be on the brink of extinction and face a long build back to the heights f the age of legends.
That is if the wheel of time is not broken and humanity freed from it's hellish, purgatory and endless cycle of birth and rebirth.
