When I read this, I associated Fallen Blacksmith's pride=all wolves in the world, and that their last days have come.


While Perrin might be proud of the wolves, I don't understand how they could all die? Every wolf everywhere. And for that matter, in a cyclical time, how could all the wolves die anyway. They need to be there in the next turning of the wheel.

One option is that the pride refers to a single wolf instead, that is to say, Hopper. Hopper has played a role in being a friend and mentor to Perrin, and I figure Perrin would be very proud of Hopper. And Hopper did die in this book. It would fit.


Doesn't the "Broken Wolf" and "the one whom Death has known" refer to the same person, because of this sentence that follows "And his destruction". If it referred to multiple people, it would read "And their destruction", wouldnt it?


Yes. What I meant here that there were several potential candidates for the single role in the prophecy. Several people, each one who had some connection to something in the prophecy (wolf,broken,would break will of men, etc). But only one can actually be the one that fills the prophecy. I think its Bashere, but it could be one of the others, or even someone I have not thought of.
