And I thought Lan was supposed to be a rocky crag of a man. Clearly the showrunners are making occasional changes to the characters. The way Jordan described Faile, no human actress could match her. Giant, beak-like, downward-pointing nose with sharply slanted Saldaean eyes. Who tf looks like that?

Perrin doesn't know who she is yet because they didn't shoot together but she takes the Hero's oath and has her intro in S2.

So who the gently caress knows :shrug:

They could have slipped her in on some scene about the hunters taking the oath, knowing they were going to bring her in on season 3 to play faile. This also keeps Rutherford in the dark because apparently he's almost as bad as Tom Holand about spoiling stuff.

That mf dropped off the face of the planet and nobody is saying anything.

My personal opinion is that it was behavioral or a mental health issue based on Brando Sando comments in an interview. I believe the words he used was: “things were happening with Barney.”

Sarah is making sure she gets to watch the reactions of people to the q&a that happens today (starting at 4 or 4:30 est), but it's not something as big as a trailer. People are having fun wildly speculating about what it might be.

HA! They pronounce Aviendha with a silent H like I always thought they must

That Dain Bornhald is pretty accurate looking too.

But uh, it seems amazing that they still aren't announcing a date for Season 2.

i got the weirdest sense seeing Sheriam at first thinking gently caress i know that place, then she starts talking and i realised that yes she's a kiwi and yes i do know that place

Rafe is sitting in it. He says it features heavily in S2 and a little bit in 3. I bet it's the Stone.

It's a pre-recorded thing they put together for Jordan con. They intro their characters and answer some fluff questions and do a little hand-talk choreography.

The funny thing is: all of these actors were known to be in the show but just about everyone had guessed their roles wrong. Most folks thought Ragga Ragnars was gonna be Birgitte and Maja Simonson would be some spicy aes sedai or a forsaken since she's a legit model. Jay Duffy most people thought he was Gawyn not Dain :ohdear:

So we still don't know any of the Trakands but Elayne.

Another theory about where that set is:

I'm not 100% convinced but they do at least point out a few details I missed, like the 7 smaller circles surrounding the larger one in what I saw as just a sun, and the vague image in the left archway.
