"I See Sparks Of Light Trying To Fill The Shadows, And The Shadows Trying To Swallow The Sparks."

Drawing of Nynaeve al'Meara, a black woman with light skin, clutching her long braid and wearing a white dress and grey apron; Egwene al'Vere, a young woman with brown skin and long wavy hair, wearing a severe white cape and dress; Rand al'Thor, a white man with a shaved head and a richly embroidered coat, hand on his face in despair; Perrin Aybara, a black man with golden eyes, light skin, and a short afro, wearing an orange shirt and soft green sleeveless coat; Mat Cauthon, a white man with short curly hair wearing a grey scarf and light green shapeless coat, arms crossed. They are all looking directly at the audience save Rand.

"I see sparks of light trying to fill the shadows, and the shadows trying to swallow the sparks."

"And he shall wear a crown of swords"

Ok, so since my first read of the Wheel of Time, I’ve thought that that was one of the dumber prophecies.

The prophecy says he’ll “wear a crown of swords,” so when he gets a crown with little swords on it, people rename it so it will be the “crown of swords” from the prophecy. If the prophecy hadn’t called it that, neither would anyone else. It’s like Logain calling his army “the people of the Dragon.” Just calling it that doesn’t necessarily fulfill the prophecies.

However, after rereading Towers of Midnight, when Nynaeve learns to see and Heal the madness of the taint, she tries Delving Rand with this new insight, and sees “Thousands upon thousands of the tiny black thorns pricked into his brain, but beneath them was a brilliant white lacing of something.” (ToM 15) The swords in the supposed “Crown of Swords” are often described as pricking his temple like thorns.

So the Laurel Crown isn’t the true “Crown of Swords.” Rand’s madness is. The Prophecies are a list of things that are supposed to help Rand towards the Last Battle and to help humanity prepare for it. Did Rand really need the crown of Illian? No. He just needed them to fight in the Last Battle. But to win, he did need the memories of Lews Therin, which he gained through his madness…through the Crown of Swords.

Screen cap from The Wheel of Time tv series showing a wide shot of Lan and Moiraine riding horses next to each other. There is text added to have Moiraine say, "Hey Lan, remember that idyllic little village we left behind?" Lan says, "You mean Emond's field?" to which Moiraine responds, "Yeah, I miss it already."

Screen cap from The Wheel of Time tv series showing the ruins of Emond's Field after the trolloc attack. Text at the bottom says, "How they left Emond's Field."

Screen cap from The Wheel of Time tv series showing a slightly tighter shot of Lan and Moiraine riding horses next to each other. There is text added to have Moiraine say, "It made me feel like a nun who wanted to frolic on the mountain top, expressing herself through song." Lan says, "You, a nun? *snicker*" to which Moiraine responds, "why r u laughing"

Screen cap from The Wheel of Time tv series showing a closer shot to an angle of Lan and Moiraine riding horses next to each other. There is text added to have Moiraine say, "Yeah, so in this scenario Siuan is a single mother of 5 to 6 children." Lan says, "5 to 6 children?" to which Moiraine responds, "Do u remember how many children we've adopted so far? I thought not." She continues, "Anyway Siuan and I share a nostalgic but sensual dance and realize we're falling in love."

Screen cap from The Wheel of Time tv series showing a close shot of Lan and Moiraine riding horses next to each other from the side. There is text added to have Moiraine say, "And then we have a super romantic wedding/banishment while the entire White Tower sings a song about me being a hilarious little minx." Lan says, "Moiriane this is just the plot to The Sound of Music."

Screen cap from The Wheel of Time tv series showing a shot of Lan and Moiraine riding horses next to each other. There is text added to have Moiraine say, "Did I tell you that you're in love with a 20-something post-minor going on 20-something." Then in much smaller text it says, "idk Nynaeve's age lol." Lan says, "I cannot believe I willingly signed up to be your Warder."
