I totally agree about mat and the call for needing to be fair to him... I'll also add that Demandred had much greater resources than Mat. Mat was completely outnumbered and outgunned. That is why he HAD to gamble. He knew that if he didn't gamble there was no way they could win. He had the foresight to recognize this from the beginning.

Mat should have lost that battle. There is no way he should have been able to pull it off.... yet he did.

Who was the better general out there? Mat for sure! In all Demandred's arrogance, he marvelled at the skill of the general on the other side.... considering the ego factor, he basically admitted that Mat was better.


In the end, Bella,s the one who ensured that the Horn could be blown and drew off enough of the shadowspawn troops to enable Lan a chance to reach Demandred for their duel. Earlier in the story she carried Egwene to safety on several occasions enabling her to stop the pattern from ripping apart and defeating the Sharan channelers.

Anyone who was disappointed is insane. That was a fantastic conclusion. - 16/01/2013 05:12:58 PM 2218 Views

You're wrong Mat was never losing. From the moment he took over he was just setting up his win. - 17/01/2013 06:25:41 PM 932 Views
Except I believe even Mat admits he didn't know if it would be enough. - 17/01/2013 09:41:03 PM 789 Views
