I am wondering how they are going to get Bela back since she's not with anyone

Well, I think the consensus is that @Yenie Antagar Sedai ate her. :giggle

I agree. I have always disliked early Mat. I don't enjoy his character until later books. I love his TV version much more. He has a reason for being rogueish instead of just being a little s**head. :laugh:

I'm still trying to decide how I feel about Perrin and Laila. I don't hate it...but I just....hmmm idk.
Saaaame. Except I love Barney Harris so much I'm overwhelmed with sadness that we're losing him.

Overall, not terrible. It shows promise. The Aiel thing was pretty good, and really showed Thom's quality. I liked that Mat took a Stone Dog from the Aiel's pouch.
This is a very good catch, thank you! I didn't catch that at all.

I kind of love that people who love Book!Nynaeve and people who loathe Book!Nynaeve all seem to love Show!Nynaeve. Good job Zoe! Apparently you CAN please everyone!

Dunno where Nynaeve's horse came from, but as Wil said at Discord, that horse doesn't have a white spot at forehead, as Bela has? :cheeseeni: We have to look at those horse side by side, like Rand with horse, and Nynaeve with horse after SL?

I wonder if other folks who havent read the books understood that Rand was channeling to knock the door down. It was super casual (JUST LIKE RJ's WRITING STYLE..... :embarassed:mg :yay)
I think the fact the door was not supposed to be able to be broken and Rand doesn't look as strong as Blacksmith Perrin would have some people wondering how he broke it down.

I really love this show Perrin. He looks perfect to me. I'm curious if there was some kind of tension btwn Egwene and Perrin's wife which is why she didn't go to Egwene's ceremony, and why Perrin is awkward with her.

the horse thing is totally bugging me, haha. but i am now fairly sure that while nynaeve’s horse isn’t Bela, Bela was not mashadared either. when Tam is brought in on Bela, the horse has no conspicuous white star and does have two white socks on hind feet. later I saw Egwene on similar horse, and the white star on Perrin’s. and the horse that melted didn’t look like either.

of course i just skimmed around on my phone and it’s hard to see. I just need to believe that Bela is around somewhere though, lol.

From the AMA:
Lenny_and_Carl: Thank you so much for including a Bela name drop in episode 2. Can we assume that you, as a proper fan boy, will be keeping her entire story arc in place as the creator's avatar on Randland?
WoTshowrunner: Literally, everyone in the horse department knows everything about Bela. There are many elderly czech men who have an eye on Bela's long-term arc in the show and they don't even know what the Wheel of Time is.

This made me laugh out loud when I read that @Elania al'Manir Sedai. Rafe's answers were just amazing. :rofl

I am glad Bela has this much consideration!

Bela is the secret star of the show, as well as the book series, so she needs some serious support. Maybe she should have her own trailer, too?
