...that Tuon was going to appear in the streets with several damane while Rand was incognito, therefore forcing him to keep hidden by 'kneeling to the Empress'. Didn't happen though!
As far as the Seanchan go, Tuon is completely crazy. She seems forced by duty and honour, but she knows that the Dragon and his allies are very dangerous to her and her territories.
Nevertheless, it does appear to have been a knee-jerk reaction to Rand. This could either be ta'veren effect acting in such a way that the results are very indirect but beneficial to the Pattern, or Rand's new darkness corrupting the Pattern more than aiding it.

Didn't RJ say he wouldn't be writing any scenes in Seanchan proper?

Maybe he won't, but the next book is called Towers of Midnight which is in Seanchan *NM*

This is what I think. If anything happens in Seanchan it'll just be the throne being moved *NM*

I highly doubt it will be just the throne being moved... the name of the book is Towers of Midnight

The title carries symbolic and poetic value, with or without events happening in Seanchan. *NM*

You could be right... I guess it depends on how much of the chaos in Seanchan gets wrapped up

Balefire against the Forsaken is completely different than balefire against cities. *NM*

I'm thinking that Rand, Mat and Perrin visit Tuon/Fortuona next.
