Wot Season 2 - Tumblr Posts

Anyone else want to babygirl Moghedien so much after seeing the season 2 final because I just want to scoop her up and hold her. NYNAEVE GET YOUR GIRL SHE'S LITERALLY IN THE SAME CITY AS YOU!!! I also want to babygirl Liandrin as well.

I just realized the two rivers folk plus Moiraine and Lan don't know that all the forsaken are loose. I wonder how they are going to find out since Lanfear has been told to stay away (which she won't) she's probably going to drop some hints. We all know that Lanfear will find a way. Or they'll show off screen them all seeing the seals broken.

If Nynaeve was the Dragon Reborn Moghedien would have served her faithfully as her most loyal follower. Gathering secrets from others to report back to Nynaeve, and sabotaging the other Forsaken's plots against Nynaeve. Lanfear would have some serious competition.

Guys help me out I'm not sure who is who and I've been stressing over this for literally an hour 😭😫

three tickets to challengers please

perfect time to bring this back. the last three episodes have amplified this to the max.

idk about you but i just really love the wheel of time women. they truly make my heart go 💗💓💗💓💗

“I see the Amyrlin Seat, and she’s wearing full regalia, and… She’s going to be your downfall” is hitting a little too much right now.

THE WHEEL OF TIME 2.08 | What Was Meant To Be

I'm literally never going to stop thinking about this! Guys they made a SIGNED CONLANG!!! They made it so that almost all the signs could be done one handed because the Aiel culture emphasizes battle so heavily that of course maiden handtalk would need to accommodate holding a spear! I cannot emphasize enough that Naomi Joy Todd and Gavin Lilley collaborated to CREATE A SIGNED CONLANG FOR THE WHEEL OF TIME

THE WHEEL OF TIME | 2x04 → 2x08

Dearest Siuanraine shippers and WoT stans, I just finished a Siuanraine edit.

It's the 2nd edit I've ever done. Here it is, I hope you enjoy it.

(Edited on Capcut.)

S2E07 Theory : Everything between Siuan and Moiraine is genuine. Only we forgot that :

BACKLINK ( this one actually works) , for those seeing this post before the theory.

So let's listen and watch carefully.

THIS POST HAS BEEN EDITED TO FIT INTO THE NEW UPDATED VERSION OF THE EXPLANATION OF THIS THEORY

(So I won't be explaining my theory, won't even summarise it here as I already tried to summarise it 2 times before and for some reason I always end up losing the post ( which is long, Yes I'm annoyed so it'll be expeditive because I'm tired of this already)

Edit 1 : It turns out that I will be explaining it in another post coming soon. I went on my laptop to copy-paste everything so I'll format it, retrieve the clips, etc.. then you'll have a detailed and well-thought and hopefully well written theory longer than a fanfic chapter to read, watch, and carefully listen to about S2E07.

Siuan and Moiraine left each other in agreement in S2E07, they're fine already even though they'll definetly still need to sit down and talk to each other and cuddle next time they meet.

Disclaimer : I recommand that you first read the subs, pause if necessary to read them, then rewind to be able to watch AND listen carefully for everything pointed out in the subs as everything really is in there waiting for you to notice them.

The amount of subtle acting in there is unbelievable. Oscar worthy actresses, am I right ?

I know. But there are two things my sister understands better than anyone. The difference between right and wrong, and how much harder it is sometimes to do what is right. - Anvaere Damodred

Thanks for reading,listening and watching. See you in the comments if you do leave your opinion, have questions or whatever. 👋🏾

I love feedback so don't hesitate to ask, comment, reblog, add things you think I might have missed etc..

Synopsis (lol):

Lan go to Siuan, together they prepare an intervention to help Moiraine. Unfortunately, it doesn't go as planned. What was their plan ? What went wrong ? What are the consequences they'll have to face ?

(And maybe more things.)

Also for those who saw my first post linking the theory as explained on Twitter, I know I went from "I'm bored , brain won't let me explain it again when I know I could just paste the link + Tumblr made me remake this 3 times so i'm annoyed" to "I'll rewrite the whole thing with even more details and hopefully make it even better than before" in only a few hours (not even a day it was already super late for me when I posted the initial post 😩😭). I know.

Blame ADHD.

You just got things mixed up.

Liandrin did not tell him she was in a cell.

She only ordered him to kill Moiraine.

He planned for Mo to be held captive until he went to kill her. Only his mom heard and backstabbed him (obvi).

They had already established that their servants were loyal to her, not Mo, who had a claim to the throne but Anvaere and only her. So she probably made the servant he asked to help him, to trap him instead, which is why he ends up emprisoned.

Mo had left the house already when Liandrin came so he prob was like "OK I wish I didn't have to but if that's what you want me to do, I'll happily do it, I'll send some people looking for her and do my thing while they look."

Question: when Liandrin tells Barthanes that Moiraine is being held in a cell in the tower, is she trying to trick him in some way or does she actually think that? Because it didn’t seem to me like anyone was holding Moiraine? She was just with Rand? And presumably if they wanted to hold her, especially since she’s “stilled,” they would put her in her own cell and not where she and the dragon could conspire? I had just assumed Siuan put Rand down there and let Moiraine go too. But then again, Leane says to Verin, “don’t let her get close to you,” so maybe she IS being held? But again, even if no one but Siuan knows she’s “stilled” (hence Leanne’s concern), why would they have her in the cell with Rand if they thought she might help him?

I’m curious because if Moiraine isn’t being held in a cell, it makes me very curious what Liandrin was doing telling that to Barthanes. Did she purposefully mislead him or was she herself misled?

Please no book spoilers I’m not even done with the first one.

I have to remember her name, not the name they've put on her.

Siuan says, “Can you imagine, Moiraine, if one of the Forsaken got their hands on him?” Are we supposed to believe that Moiraine and Siuan have written six months of letters and Moiraine never mentioned Lanfear?

YES. It's a time line thing really. Moiraine learned about Lanfear the night she got attacked by the Fades rescued by Lan then both rescued by Verin and Tomas. During the 6 months she only knew that "the last battle of s1" was actually the first one hence the reasearch about the forsaken, it was only confirmed with Bayle Domon trough the poem and broken cuendillar. She hadn't realise that Ishy had been freed until she was able to figure out that broken cuendillar meant broken seal and therefore free Forsaken.

Then, when she realised that she HAD to tell Siuan about her being stilled she still couldn't get herself to admit it so she wasn't informed. Then, she only took the time to write something when she had Rand and they were back at the house and she was still stuck on making her stilling something tangible so she never sent the letter and Siuan only learned about it thanks to Lan.

If Moiraine didn’t write about being stilled and didn’t mention Lanfear, what in the world was she writing to Siuan about?

And they might have been writing to each other the sweetest, cutest, most romantic letter ever and obviously sharing info on what they gathered to try and solve the mistery of the broken cuendillar at the eye and what it would mean for their mission.

Her not talking about being stilled implies that Siuan also didn’t know about Rand leaving since it basically tells us that she omitted the details and probably wrote something along the lines of it "dearest Siuan, we were wrong it was not the dark one but Ishameal, we defeated him but something is fishy, found a broken cuendillar so I think it might have been our first battle and not the last, need help solving this puzzle because I have no idea of what it could mean"

( I'm re-explaining and refining my theory about S2E07 as of now, so I'm going over and fact-checking and coherence-checking everything right now, so ask away if you have more questions.)

I promise I’ll stop talking about this soon because I’m a few weeks behind the Discourse having just done this rewatch, but the main reason I personally think something was up with Siuan and Rand in the throne room in 02x07 is Siuan’s comment to him about using him as a weapon but not having him be the general. She didn’t get to be the Amyrlin without knowing that’s a dumb thing to say to *anyone,* especially anyone you want to work with you, let alone the dragon reborn who is the most powerful person in the world.

Two other things:

- Siuan says, “Can you imagine, Moiraine, if one of the Forsaken got their hands on him?” Are we supposed to believe that Moiraine and Siuan have written six months of letters and Moiraine never mentioned Lanfear? If Moiraine didn’t write about being stilled and didn’t mention Lanfear, what in the world was she writing to Siuan about? Unless she was trying to cut Siuan out entirely, which we have no reason to think she would. I guess maaybe it hasn’t been enough time to send a letter about Lanfear to Siuan.

- Why would Siuan want to announce Rand as dragon in Cairhien? Not only would that abruptly abandon the prophesy they’ve worked towards for decades and sacrificed everything for, wouldn’t it also bring all the forces of the dark to them immediately with only 14 Aes Sedai? Wouldn’t it be better to keep him a secret if they actually wanted to use him in the way she discusses? Or to declare him in Tar Valon where they can draw on all the resources of the White Tower?

I’m still not sure I think the heartbreaking ending of that episode was part of a scheme between Moiraine and Siuane—the “if you have ever loved me, don’t do this” feels too raw to me to be fake—but I *do* think something very weird was up with them in front of Rand.

If somehow you answered yes, subscribe to my blog or some of the tags for this post because it is coming soon ( I don't know when, It could be later today or in a few days but it is coming for sure)
