Maybe spoilery from ending of book 1 onward
If I were to take a quick stab at it, I'd guess it's how the broken seal that gets recovered from the eye of the world was actually broken? Rand thinks he is attacking Ba'alzamon's source of power (by cutting it) but it's actually the binds of the seals?
No need to correct me or anything if it's spoilery ... just thought I'd share what my initial guess was/is.
Pretty much spot on. I meant regarding Ba’alzamon’s fate directly, though. The show tells us straight out what the books allude to for a little while.
Honestly, the spoiler I'm referring to is so obvious you probably think I'm referring to something else, but what I'm referencing is not clearly mentioned in the books for a bit longer. And of Book 2 or early Book 3 I think. Moiraine has said it directly twice in the show, though. About Ba'alzamon's nature.
Yea ... not sure what you're referring to here ... but that's ok ... I'll keep reading! Thanks again!!
Fair enough :)
It's probably something so obvious to you that you didn't realize it was being kept secret in the books. Either way, have a great day and enjoy!
