Because that's life A Deathwatch Guard Send a noteboard - 02/02/2011 08:18:22 PM
I don't think the visions have to necessarily have a purpose. They're a connection that the three ta'veren share, and if Mat finds himself thinking of Rand for whatever reason, then he is bound to see something. And that something can't always be a momentous occasion... Rand is human and needs food too, and there's nothing wrong with that being shown, especially when there's only a single sentence devoted to it.

Furthermore, and argument could be made for such a scene actually being very important, since it shows the bond between Rand and Min still there, and Rand's continued humanity.

Who would have written the end of WoT better yet still similar to RJ? *NM* Fox and Ravens - 02/02/2011 06:39:53 PM 589 Views
Let them whine. Ghavrel - 02/02/2011 08:03:13 PM 1335 Views
It's incredible that some readers actually seem to prefer Sanderson's attempts at being an author Cynewulf - 02/02/2011 10:32:31 PM 1316 Views

Yeah, it's mindboggling that someone may have a different taste than you Zeratul - 03/02/2011 01:55:57 PM 1290 Views

It isn't life though. It's entertainment, and there's so much fun potential for that connection Deadsy - 02/02/2011 08:27:45 PM 1143 Views
It's definitely better when they see something interesting, or important A Deathwatch Guard - 02/02/2011 10:19:50 PM 1185 Views
I disagree Deadsy - 02/02/2011 10:30:49 PM 1149 Views
Like it or not, Sanderson is to blame for this Cynewulf - 02/02/2011 10:37:14 PM 1269 Views
He's obviously responsible, but it's not a very serious offense. Gher - 02/02/2011 10:46:09 PM 1097 Views

Yup... fionwe1987 - 03/02/2011 04:15:23 PM 1124 Views
I put the blame more on Team Jordan. Gher - 03/02/2011 06:52:42 PM 1206 Views
Re: I put the blame more on Team Jordan. DomA - 04/02/2011 01:30:21 AM 1110 Views
I don't think Sanderson is a good writer. I just don't think Jordan was a good writer, either. *NM* Ghavrel - 04/02/2011 02:11:28 AM 571 Views

Sure. Ghavrel - 04/02/2011 07:19:57 AM 1182 Views
Re: I put the blame more on Team Jordan. AGREED! *NM* alanna aes sedai - 06/02/2011 05:24:31 PM 598 Views
Best explanation of the issue thus far. HyogaRott - 03/02/2011 10:50:56 PM 1225 Views
But even then, all he saw was Mat talking/flirting with Tuon. Gher - 02/02/2011 10:37:33 PM 1332 Views
You're probably right. There was a post not long ago about the characters tinkling Deadsy - 02/02/2011 10:40:37 PM 1110 Views
Well someone's gotta be displeased! Gher - 02/02/2011 11:20:53 PM 1343 Views
Here's my question: why are there so many songs about rainbows? *NM* newyorkersedai - 04/02/2011 04:43:02 AM 665 Views
Yep. He could've used them to show their timing Lohikaarme - 07/02/2011 12:21:40 PM 1212 Views
