I realize that is not really a fair trade, and would therefore be willing to throw in some high draft picks (say, the second Aes Sedai raised to the shawl next year, and the fourth Accepted raised each of the next two years; I would include Faile, but fear that would be a deal breaker.) Getting Hopper permanently killed was pretty much the last straw for me with Perrin; he must save Rands life one more time, but after that I am hoping he is (repeatedly) run over by a (burning) haywain. He may actually be more insufferable than his wife now. At least she managed to end her bloodfeud with Berelain; all he did was heroically save F--KING AVATAR!!! from a trap meant for him, then get the first and only wolf to befriend him forever wiped from existence for absolutely no reason.

Sorry, I will try to offer something more constructive after I have slept, but bringing Hopper back just to kill him AGAIN—permanently and pointlessly—royally pissed me off. Even Ingtars death meant something, and he was a freaking Darkfriend. Hoppers second death was like Aginors, and he deserved far better. Somewhere the other wolves are thinking, Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.
