Perhaps more shocking would be for the Rand-Moridin link to seep hope into Moridin, leading Moridin, at the last moment when Rand is utterly beaten, to turn on the Shadow and use the Dark Ones own power to reseal the bore. Moridin, as a philosopher, is presently at peace with the annihilation of all things, but if some of Rand's newfound hope and love seeps through their peculiar bond, then could not Moridin save the day even as an intellectual exercise?
"I cannot accept the end of all things if any part of me believes in hope, Rand al'Thor! Next time I will remember my mental failing and defeat you utterly!"

This is why fanfiction of soap operas and comics can be more entertaining than the real thing.

Only if the DO isn't quite what we think he/it is.

No, there is no sense that the Shadow can or will win.

With the Deck So Heavily Stacked in the DO's Favor, the Rest Just Makes Things Competitive.
