So Mat is deliberately leaving Moiraine for several more weeks in the captivity of the Finns. What a scumbag. Are there no limits to where this man will stoop?

"We can't go because...uh... we can't sneak away."

"Mat there's a ta'veren."

"Distract the men so we can sneak away."

When Rand, Egwene, Nynaeve, Elayne, Aviendha et al want to do something, they do it. Rand has to kill Graendal. Egwene has to unite the Tower. Nynaeve has to do.. stuff. Mat is just a whiney little boy who is STILL complaining about how raw his deal was. He's always been the worst of the ta'veren for me, and yet everyone likes him because he does heroic deeds. But he whines so much he taints the whole experience. What a child.
