But he wasn't blindfolded... right? I hope that wasn't it. Sandwich Send a noteboard - 16/11/2009 01:41:59 AM
Sanderson confirmed at the NY signing that Perrin's dream of Rand as a blindfoled beggar was fulfilled in Ebou Dar. He also indicated that it fulfilled Min's vision of him as a beggar with a staff, though that was slightly less clear.


Man, I hope that wasn't it. If the blindfolded beggar dream was fulfilled in Ebou Dar... where was the blindfold? This whole Fisher King mythology had better play out to more than that. It's supposed to be this big symbolic thing, Rand as the Fisher King. And that's fulfilled when he just wears a ragged cloak? C'mon! Don't pull a Masema/Graendal on us here, Sanderson.

One could argue he already was blind while he wandered in TGS. RandAllThor - 12/11/2009 02:19:47 PM 659 Views
IIRC, BS stated that the end of TGS fulfilled the beggar prophecy Etzel - 12/11/2009 03:01:09 PM 744 Views

Fisher as a larger issue than Perrin's vision Sandwich - 16/11/2009 03:58:32 PM 531 Views
There will definitely be more with Rand in his fisher king role NaClH2O - 16/11/2009 04:32:27 PM 540 Views
