I don't think that's spelled out, though. I thought maybe that was the place where the 10,000 Jenn Aiel got mowed down Turns out they’re just dicks

Not having colors makes doing "lmao characters not actually dead btw I dont know how to channel" healing a bit easier to do.

I did finally listen to all 8 hours of the WT final season 1 episode. I really liked that guest they had early on. Funny! BUT pronounces it "impordant"

I like the concept but I couldn’t get past that

No one is allowed to give WoT characters nicknames except for the Everyday Negros crew. No one else is nearly as good at it as they are.

Just cracking into Book 5 and it's just amazingly lol that people see Rand or one of are heroes jaywalking in a dream and they're like "100% dark friend loving confirmed no mercy for servants of the shadow" then turn to Paddan Fain, who is currently drinking wine from a cup fashioned from a child's skull and are like "hey man, can you help me with these obviously bad guys?"

“Alanna’s face had fallen, and she had sagged back in her chair. “It’s just that I’ve come all this way, and you are sending me right off again. I suppose it is for the best, with that girl here,” she sighed. “You have no idea what I went through in Cairhien, masking the bond just enough to keep what the two of you were doing from keeping me awake all night.” Does Alanna want in on the harem? I feel like RJ left this whole thing undeveloped and unfinished.

Yeah I'm listening in Fires of Heaven and while there's an occasional cutesy nickname it's greatly reduced from the beginning. I was also annoyed at first but came to enjoy it eventually

Seanchan nobility anyone? Jessica Boone is a classically trained actor and voice actor from America who is currently based out of Prague, Czechia. She is the co-director of the Prague Shakespeare Company alongside her husband and fellow Wheel of Time actor, Guy Roberts. In addition to her numerous theatre roles and voice acting work in anime, she also has had roles in television and movies, including recent roles in Das Boot and The Defeated. She recently wrapped work on television series Dangerous Liaisons and movie Chevalier, both filmed in the Czech Republic. In a quickly deleted Instagram post from her agency, Boone was stated to be in season one of The Wheel of Time upon release. However, now that the first season has come and gone and we have yet to see her on screen, it seems likely that she will be in season two. Her specific character is unknown, however, she was seen with the side of her head shaved in August of 2021. IG post from today with her head still shaved.  Deleted post from her talent agency prior to S1 release:

Comrade Blyatlov posted:That looks far less stupid than I always imagined it would. It will almost certainly be styled some kinda way, maybe even a faux hawk or mohawk. It's entirely possible she'll be Suroth. There isn't really any Seanchan in early seasons that require a legit actor, Suroth and Turak are about it.

I was more thinking of the hair, I thought Suroth and Turak were the only ones high ranked enough to merit that Also that dude really is the perfect Uno

I don’t get how Elayne is acting pregnant and all of Caemlyn is treating her as such basically the day after Rand’s booty call. She mentions a Min viewing in her internal dialogue but I don’t remember any such viewing? I know during the succession and the battle for Caemlyn she uses the pregnancy as plot armor but I don’t remember any pre-coitus viewings

Twins." or something like that, she told Aviendha and Birgitte in the hallway.

The Caemlyn servant’s roast sessions in the staff kitchen must have been so good when everyone thought Elayne was loving the ugliest dude in Andor.
