honestly, as far as random changes go, i 100% buy that moiraine or siuan found a ter'angreal lying around the tower's storerooms that lets you teleport between two nearby locations and decided to use it to make it easier to scheme
Yeah, as a book reader, that was the most logical explanation. I'm guessing maybe they just didn't have the time/inclination to explain ter'angreal at this point in the show.
yeah this could cause issues down the line, and also makes no damn fucking sense because the gates were created for Ogier who can't channel! and obviously they're made for the ogier still because they need loial for a guide
I wasn't sure the show said the reason why they need Loial there. I forgot myself exactly what the reason was in the books. I was also thinking about at what point in the books did Moiraine know/realize there's a Waygate in the Two Rivers. You would think she would have put 2 and 2 together by this point in the show, even if she didn't understand how that could be possible.
you can see mashadar's mists. makes sense that you could see a manifestation of its evil. no reason to think rand saw the weaves; even book 1 rand could put two and two together
Okay, sure. I'll take that as an explanation.
Has anyone else watched the "Behind the Episode" clips or the "WoT Origins" animations. The Origins animations are pretty damn cool but they feel so different in tone than the actual TV series. To the point it almost makes me wish we got the series in that style...
