It's the place in Seanchan where the a'dam was first used. Werthead Send a noteboard - 19/09/2009 03:46:46 AM
I'm wondering if that is significant now. Deain, the woman who created the a'dam, gave the first one to Luthair who thanked her and then leashed her with it. "Her screams shook the Towers of Midnight".

RJ later confirmed that the complex is a thirteen-towered fortress located outside the city of Imfaral in Seanchan.

It's a nice title because it can work on multiple levels. It could also refer to the Black or White Towers (or both), the Tower of Ghenjei, Moridin's new fortress, etc.

Does "Towers of Midnight" refer to the Seanchan fortress? Dodge - 19/09/2009 01:24:56 AM 2471 Views
Almost definitely. 13 towers in the complex. *NM* Werthead - 19/09/2009 01:35:49 AM 1032 Views

It would be nice place for Seeker Morr to torture Demandred, IMHO posing as General Galgan *NM* Curie - 20/09/2009 09:57:11 AM 998 Views
Yes, there seem to be quite a few towers in this series, huh? *NM* Fantasy - 20/09/2009 11:16:27 PM 751 Views
A series of towers, one might say. *NM* fionwe1987 - 20/09/2009 11:39:56 PM 736 Views

I can't find the relevant comment from RJ, but... RandAllThor - 19/09/2009 12:40:03 PM 1541 Views
Thanks, I thought I remembered RJ saying as much. *NM* RandAllThor - 19/09/2009 12:25:20 PM 707 Views
But RJ can change his mind right? redhand - 19/09/2009 01:38:54 PM 1410 Views
Of course. It would be nice to know where/when the comment was made. *NM* RandAllThor - 19/09/2009 01:53:35 PM 846 Views
I ask that you put spoilers in your title, whether they're in white or not. Thank you. *NM* Palatine - 19/09/2009 07:16:20 PM 721 Views

I think "Dance of Lightnings" is way too reminiscent of GRMM *NM* NaClH2O - 19/09/2009 08:26:12 PM 866 Views
He'd probably go with "Lance of Lightning". *NM* TaskmasterJack - 19/09/2009 09:42:11 PM 733 Views
That sorta sounds like a...er...adult cinematic feature title NaClH2O - 20/09/2009 02:59:51 AM 1300 Views
Perfect for Martin, then. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 21/09/2009 01:33:45 AM 622 Views
