Min has a viewing that Rand needs Moiraine in order to succeed, but unfortunately Min believes that Moiraine is "dead and gone". When she is thinking about her confusion over the one viewing she had that didn't come true, she is actually commenting on the one where Thom and Moiraine end up together. Min didn't see "Rand succeeding" in her vision (that would kinda make the suspense of the series pointless) with Moiraine, she just sees that he can't do it without Moiraine. And Moiraine being dead, as far as Min knows anyway, invalidates only the vision about Moiraine and Thom (again, from Min's perspective). One vision was a contingent one, the other a certainty. She has both.


Min actually states that the only viewing she ever got wrong was that Rand could not succeed without a woman dead and gone. IIRC she never once thinks about Thom and Moiraine.

She knew he'd survive because Min told Moiraine they end up together, and they weren't a couple yet. - 18/09/2010 12:56:09 AM 669 Views
Can that really be right? - 18/09/2010 06:44:40 PM 807 Views
That is her "thimble of hope" that she mentions twice *NM* - 18/09/2010 07:41:23 PM 314 Views

She needs to have known that she would see Thom again - 18/09/2010 08:25:37 PM 624 Views

It doesn't change your point, but I know she hadn't entered the doorway yet. It was in this chapter - 18/09/2010 11:58:53 PM 542 Views
I'll take your word for it - 19/09/2010 06:10:43 AM 600 Views
You're misinterpreting which viewing is the one which Min believes turned out wrong. - 19/09/2010 03:33:04 AM 538 Views

Wrong, she never specifies WHICH viewing was the wrong one. - 19/09/2010 07:28:21 AM 797 Views
She doesn't have any reason to think that's wrong yet, though. - 20/09/2010 06:02:37 PM 719 Views
I'm going to make one last attempt before giving up - 20/09/2010 10:03:54 PM 627 Views
Yes, you're right - 21/09/2010 12:20:47 AM 536 Views
another interpretation (albeit, irrelevant to this discussion ) - 21/09/2010 04:55:30 AM 643 Views
If that fulfilled the viewing Min would never have said - 21/09/2010 05:07:34 AM 572 Views
it's likely - 18/09/2010 07:53:30 PM 732 Views
And she said the husband comment before going to the Aelfinn, and believed his survival back in EotW - 19/09/2010 12:15:26 AM 650 Views
