I found it very strange when egwene asked fealty from nisao and myrelle, when firstly being outraged that AS should swear to rand or anyone.

was it confirmed whether the fog in the rebel camp was made by fain or was it just a bubble of evil? there was also a similar fog in the Rahad in Ebou Dar when mat was there, so i'm thinking bubble.

logain stepping over a body that appears to be rand seems like the death of taim, maybe taim claims to be rand, using MoM to impersonate him while rand is otherwise engaged elsewhere, spreading chaos and doing evil things. possibly the BA supposed plot in TDR and TSR could foreshadow this?

how did everyone know of that cache in ebou dar? sammael was searching for it as were the BA, who i think were working for moridin? makes the most the sense...

will the alanna link have a long term consequence, i can't really remember it having that much bearing on the story so far. perhaps alanna will die and rand, being her warder will have that death enveloping his soul thing that lan had.

with the continued effort to keep rand alive at least till the last battle i have a feeling that the DO needs rand there as much as the prophecies do. perhaps the prelude to TG, is all about setting the pieces to see who has the strongest board before the fight. i think that if rand dies at TG the DO can control his soul from beyond the grave and win. maybe as part of the prophecies, to die and live again, blood on the rocks of shayol ghul etc. rand will die and by encountering the DO from the afterlife (or whatever) he can defeat and reseal the prison and then come back in another body.

also for the three will be one, how about the three ta'verens? in aCoS we get the first lot of swirling colours and stuff as the three think of one of the others. what if it becomes so that the three are merged in someway? i dunno, maybe they become a super-ta'veren and bend the pattern so much they defeat the DO?

that's it i need to crack on with PoD
