Re: Is it actually possible that Moiraine's rescue will not occur in ToM?

...given that we (apparently) know that a climactic event will occur that will bring all the major characters together at the end of the book? Can anyone think of how to reconcile the reunion, TG starting at the start of AMoL or end of ToM, and Moiraine's rescue not happening until AMoL?
You must have seen the report where this comes from, but like most people and unlike that guy (he thinks the real Lanfear is also in Finnland waiting for Mat to rescue her...) you understood it as a joke at the time. It was pretty obvious from the way the reporter conveyed the tone of Brandon when he spoke of that
Someone was assuming a little too much to Brandon's taste in his questions that Moiraine would be rescued and Brandon went and answered something like "what makes you so sure Moiraine will be rescued in the next book, or will be rescued at all?".
If you remember, Brandon was the one who blundered long ago and revealed that Moiraine is alive, because he thought there was a confirmation of that in KOD.
There's very little chance Moiraine is rescued only in the last book. Mat's not going to spend all of TOM making dragons with Aludra, Thom is pressing him silently already and we know Mat has to be back for the "reunion", so he won't go to Ghenjei in TOM but not return until AMOL....
My personal bet is that Moiraine's rescue happens in the second half of TOM. My theory is that it will held Mat away from the beginning of the big battle that starts TG (which I'm convinced will happen at and around Caemlyn). He return in the middle of it to begin to turn the tide.
Signing report with some speculations

Ok. I don't know that guy, but your assessment is somewhat sobering. *NM*

Even if Dida is unreliable, it doesn't matter, because that "report" is unreadable. *NM*

Thanks. I'm glad I'm not the only one who didn't get how that could be.

MAFO are not a joke. It's a way to transfer legal responsibly from Brandon to Maria & Harriet too.

I still don't understand why people think Noal will not enter the Tower of Ghenjei

Noal's real motivations are unknown, he was a pawn of Ishamael's and more.
