One point- the DO didn't break free, Rand dragged him out into the Pattern, specifically to kill him

Technically he does burst free in the words of the text but it's hard to assume that would have happened if Rand hadn't, to quote the book, "pulled the Dark One into the Pattern". Also it is heavily implied pages beforehand that the DO cannot destroy the pattern or harm humanity unless they allow him to and his power is to break mankind and rely on others, which is why he needs his army of Dhadowspawn and Forsaken
So, is anyone else thinking that ending was a bit of a dick move....

It's not so much about him not telling as cutting loved ones out of his life altogether *NM*

That was my interpretation as well. I think it was an attempt at showing Rand's humility. *NM*

I can agree with keeping it secret from just about everyone, BUT his father and closest friends.

I got the impression Egwene knew releasing the Source would instantly kill her.

Even if she would just have been burned out there was no reason to think it permanent.

If that were the case Taim certainly would have smashed the seals right away

I thought it was largely believed that Nakomi is an avatar of the Creator. *NM*

It's one of the dominant theories, not sure it's the one favoured by the majority, but maybe *NM*

IDK, I thought the body switch was a side-effect of the link between them

I agree. Rand carries a man out of SG who he didn't bring there- logic dictates he is Forsaken *NM*

Impossible to say, but I doubt he intended to keep his inner circle perpetually in the dark.
