I think it's supposed to refer to Min's viewing, rather than the boat Dream/Foretelling Cannoli Send a noteboard - 21/04/2012 09:23:32 PM


So it's a scene connected to the "three in a boat" foretelling (but not the actual boat scene itself). There's weirdly water streaks around. Gallo mentions it's a funeral pyre, though that looks more like a weird stone cairn to me, unless that's supposed to be sung wood or something Aviendha or Elayne made with the power (kind of a miniature DM, on which Rand is placed).
One of the first viewings Min told Rand about was him on a funeral bier with three women around it, though Min's wording was standing OVER it. This looks more like the three of them are trying to figure out how to get him down.

I'm really not a fan of Sweet's work, though I find this one is simpler and not quite as bad or "offensive" (to good taste) as many others were. It has a very Arthurian ambiance.


Which might be why you expected this to be set on a boat.
