practically speaking you're correct. But this is a fantasy novel with a pro-protagonist tone

It would entirely jar the mood and the reader's expectations (in a bad way). RJ would be completely reversing the general direction his book series has taken in regards to who dies, wins and lives. That's not a good idea at all and it's not fair to one's readers. I'm not saying no one will die, hell, even a major character may die...but for it to be one of the central characters would be implausible given how RJ has written up until this point.

There is the one vision Min had of Aveinda where she was going to have 4? babies but it was odd *NM*

is there any chance that the broken crown could refer to Manethrean? (sp?)

I didn't know Naelson was a Darkfriend, or Tylin either. What about Jaim?

Yes. I am classifying Main Characters as Rand, Egwene, Elayne, Perrin, Mat, Avi, Min and Nynaeve.

No, she won't be able to weave the gateway and Rand won't let anyone make her one. *NM*

The smartass answer: Birgitte. But, despite all seeming evidence, I don't know why anyone would. *NM*
