The Wheel of Time
Summary
The Wheel of Timemissed out on a monumental opportunity with Rand ’s story in season 1 , but the serial publication has a chance to make up for it when it continue Mat ’s adventures . If the show follow the class gear up by Robert Jordan’sWheel of Timebooks , Mat and Rand will share their next terminus . However , certain developments indicate that the show may lead on a different road inThe Wheel of Timeseason 3 .
The Wheel of Timeis on track to adaptThe Shadow Rising , the 4th book in the critically acclaim fantasy serial . In the novel , Mat Cauthon is among theWheel of Timecharactersto accompany Rand to the Aiel Waste where he seeks to gather more allies in his quest . This becomes a personal journeying for Mat as well , as he encounters the occult race known as the Aelfinn and the Eelfinn . But while this amounts to a fundamental development in Mat ’s story , the show may have different plans for him , which may let the serial to do justness to a book moment time of year 1 cut .
The Wheel Of Time Skipped Rand’s First Meeting With Elayne’s Family In Caemlyn
Ahead of his reunion with Moiraine , Egwene , and the others inThe Eye of the World , Rand had a bit of a misadventure in Caemlyn . In trying to get a look at Logain while he was being paraded through township by the Aes Sedai , Rand fell over a wall and landed in the palace gardens , result in his first - ever meeting with Elayne . The accident cause Rand a great deal of trouble , as once his front was exposed , he had to confront scrutiny from others , who did n’t share Elayne ’s fondness for him . Wheel of Timeseason 1 notably bring down this encounter , as it replaced Caemlyn with Tar Valon .
By head in this focal point , The Wheel of Timewas capable to inclose a new corner ofThe Wheel of Time’sworld , double-dyed with a modest cast of characters of its own : Elayne , Galad , Gawyn , Elaida , Queen Morgase , Tallanvor , and Gareth Bryne . A big part of its significance , of course , was how it kickstarted Elayne ’s feeling for Rand , which develop into love before she saw him again . The intromission of the other grapheme were important as well , though , because how they were depicted inThe Eye of the Worldset up the roles they play in later Quran .
It’s Too Late For Rand’s Caemlyn Story After Wheel Of Time Season 2
AfterThe Wheel of Timeseason 2,it ’s too belated for the incident with Rand in Caemlyn to occur in the TV version of the level . That was made clear byThe Wheel of Timeseason 2 ’s conclusion , which view Rand lay eye on Elayne for the first prison term as she Healed his wound . It would also be difficult for this floor to be moved around , especially since Rand is expected to expend most - if not all - of season 3 in the Aiel Waste . With that in mind , it appears thatThe Wheel of Timehas plow the page on this specific event in Rand ’s life .
Why Mat May Go To Caemyln In The Wheel Of Time Season 3
While the iconic first meeting betweenRand and Elayne inThe Eye of the Worldis no longer feasible , the other parts of this taradiddle can still make it to the small blind , albeit not with Rand . The pure nominee to supervene upon Rand in such a storyline is Mat , who could quite easily lift up in Caemlyn inThe Wheel of Timeseason 3 . After all , the Word of God variation of the reference does visit Caemlyn afterThe Great Hunt . With the show poised to jump right intoThe Shadow Rising , it ’s likely many characters wo n’t have their floor fromThe Dragon Rebornadapted , but Mat could be an exception to this .
It should n’t be forgotten that one of the biggest consequences of Mat’sThe Shadow Risingstory has already happened in the television set serial publication . Using the Horn of Valereseemingly awakened his remembering of his preceding life in the season 2 conclusion , whereas the Good Book ' Mat did n’t have his retentivity unlocked until he buy the farm to the Aiel Waste and met the Aelfinn and the Eelfinn . If the TV series has decided to shut out these two races ( or bring through them for later)it may decide to rationalise Mat ’s story fromThe Shadow Risingand adapt his spark fromThe Dragon Reborninstead . Doing so would presumably amount to a team - up with Thom in Caemlyn .
InThe Dragon Reborn , Mat and Thom travel to Caemlyn to deliver a message to Queen Morgase from Elayne . In the process , Mat get a line about an assassination plot against Elayne by Morgase ’s fan , Lord Gaebril ( a fictitious character who later turn out to beRahvin of the 13 Forsaken).It ’s not hard to imagine a tarradiddle with Rahvin as the main scoundrel being the nidus of Mat ’s season 3 journey . hike up the chance of it happening is therumored casting of Queen Morgase inThe Wheel of Timeseason 3 .
How Wheel Of Time Season 3’s Mat Arc Can Incorporate Rand’s Missing Season 1 Story
Mat ’s experiences in Caemlyn differed from Rand ’s , but the show ’s history of combining book tale does make a combination of the two stories derive to pass in time of year 3 seem plausible . In the Koran version of the chronicle , Gawyn , Galad , Gareth Byrne , Elaida were all absent from the palace when Mat and Thom arrived at the palace to deliver the missive to Queen Morgase , but since none of these characters have been introduced in the show yet , it would make sense for them to be on hand . They could all be admit in a story that consider Mat appropriate and brought before the queen , not unlike what fall out to Rand .
If all the aforementioned case appear , their use could mirror their action inThe Eye of the World . Elaida , for example , could express skepticism of Mat while the ever - righteous Galad could alert the authorities , which could be led by the over - protective Tallanvor . As for Gawyn , he could be portray as a good person who speaks in Mat ’s defense . Gareth Bryne could be the spirit level - headed voice in the room who points out that Mat is from the Two Rivers and therefore not a terror . Going in this direction would enable each theatrical role to take in an launching that ’s in keeping withTheWheel of Timebooks , even if Rand is n’t there .
