- Quite an exciting and mysterious prologue - it's a gathering of seemingly high level Darkfriends I guess and the Dark Lord is issuing separate orders to each Darkfriend about Rand and his friends regarding their capture for turning to the Dark side
- Every time he thought he detected a weakness in those he now served.. the supposed weakness was cut out with ruthless precision
- If his current masters, his masters for the moment, has no weakness
- Who are these darkfriends? Could be anyone including a tinker who searches for the song
- An Illianer and Arad Doman, aes sedai with great Serpent ring

- Rand is paranoid about moiraine and aes sedai when the amyrlin seat arrives
- The Ogier's face split into a smile. The Shienaran Welcome
- They just say "Glory to the Builders" and will not bet against me. I don't think that's fair, do you?
- The lamplighters are charged with keeping the streets lit at night so there isn't a shadow for a Myrddraal to hide in
- The truth an aes sedai tells is never the truth you think it is
- Stick caught in his "threat"
- At the sight of her sadness and loss rolled over him, worse than when he chased Mat and Perrin away. He had grown up thinking he would marry Egwene one day; they both had

- What happens if the Dragon Reborn is gentle before the Last Battle even begins? Even prophecy can fail if the one prophesied is slain or gentled
- And when Rand needs me in Illian, I will be there, and I will see that it is he who presents the Horn to the Council of Nine and the Assemblage. I will see to everything in Illian... the Illianers sounds follow the Dragon, or Ba'alzamon himself, if he can't bearing the Horn of Valere.. the true Dragon Reborn will not to gather a following before nations move against him. He will begin with a nation around him and an army at his back.
- I will have the means to see him named Dragon whether he wills it or not
- Pedron Niall, Lord Captain Commander, could be a contender for Bors because he's orchestrating a legion of Bornhold to go to Tarabon.. but so could Einor Saren, Questioners
- Alcruna to Tanchico, Tarabon

- I cannot believe you would do this unless he was the Dragon reborn
- Verin helped Moiraine with sweetcakes
- Now you are almost a pretty enough boy to make me wish I was a Green. Almost. - Leane.
- Leane hesitated. He is sleeping is how he is. And in a few hours, he will get out of that bed, and you'll think there was never anything wrong with him. Perrin suspects half truth
- Perrin looked hurt. Liandrin wanted me..
- I am on your side sheepherder, a little
- That will make them think. The Warder was smiling
- Dark prophecy chapter 6. Blood calls blood ch 7. The Dragon Reborn ch 8 - all interesting

- Did you think the Trollocs came after you just because you are ta'veren? You are the Dragon Reborn.

- It was necessary.. did it work, daughters?
- We will have to gentle him after all before.. but we cannot can we?

- Moiraine has everything Nyn wants! The Light burn her
- We said all we need to say long ago, you and I. I shamed myself.
- Show it to a Warder and he will give aid. Send it to me.. and I will come to you without delay and without fail. This I swear. A crane flew above a lance and crown
- Mashiara
- Moiraine tells Nyn a half truth re seeing Rand
- If your own power is not schooled, you will never be able to use it against me
- I like how Nynaeve could be Rand's guardian.. yes Moiraine and others may be using him in the context of prophecy but she's watching out for his back after prophecy happens
- She did not think it would be wise to put it to Nyn in quite that way
- So why can't he have sense enough to speak up?
- Rand had been all but promised to her since they were children. At first it had caused stabs of jealousy and anger (finding a suitable wife for Rand)
- Do not be too hard on him. He only wished to see his young woman, and does not know our ways
- He is too big to spank
- And promise me you won't choose the Red Ajah

- Is it old come again or new
- 1000 gold marks for Captain Bayle Domon to take a mystery passenger on his boat from Mayene to Illian
- Many rayed rising sun of Cairhien- Tar Valon
- Tar valon coins are hated - they deliberately gave Domon them so he had to flee Illian
- Crew of the Spray hunted to tell something
- Domon made good profits and shared them per the Illianer way
- Black and white yin yang sign was aes sedai? Before breaking of the world
- Go to Aryth Ocean. Plenty of trade between Tarabon and Arad Doman. Falme's the largest and not big. Small towns on Toman Head are free states
- Listen to his advice, don't mind his tongue, and you will do alright with Uno.
- Masema fought against the Aiel in the Eastern Marshes.. can't get Rand's look of Aiel out of his head
- No he has the look.
- If you have a sword and the Aielman has his bare hands, it is an even fight. If you're good. Aiel divide the world in two. Aiel, and enemies. Except for Cairhien, Ogier, travelling people
- And Hurin's something worse
- Funny smell of violence
- Woman in white
- This is how we left home at Taren Ferry. It will be worse this time...I can smell it
- The Light shine on you, and the Creator shelter you The last embrace of the mother welcome you home
- Changu and Nidao- it had to be they who were responsible for all of it
- There is hardly a nation that truly controls the land it claims on a map, and there is hardly a land that claims today on a map what it did even a hundred years ago.
- Harad Dakar
- A smiling, bald headed man in rough clothes..the hunt begins
- I'll not claim I would have chosen you myself, but I think you have it in you to do what is needed
- Peace favour your sword, Rand al'Thor
- Rand is Ingtar's second, rather than Uno
- Take care of the banner of Lews Therin.. your life may depend on it
- Perrin said quietly, Rand can you channel
- Shut up, Mat, Perrin said calmly
- Look I know you came along to help me and I'm grateful. I really am. But you just are not the same anymore
- I just do not know
- Come to me Rand..we'll dance on Toman Head, and I'll be free if you.

- Sheriam master of novices
- Moiraine, Lan, Liandrin, Verin just left like that
- A woman had been standing over him, looking down
- Seven steps rising from blue to red, one for each Ajah
- From Stone to Stone run the lines of "if", between the worlds that might be. If a woman go left or right, does Time's flow divide? Does the Wheel then weave two Patterns? A thousand, for each of her turnings? As many as the stars? Is one real, the others merely shadows and reflections?
- Aes sedai used them in the Age of Legebds when there were male Aes Sedai
- The void surrounded him with an uneasy glow
- Hurin - if you can't take her my body, you'll let her know, so she has that, at least
- I will do my best Hurin. By my House and honor. A shepherd's House and a shepherd's honor, but I'll make them do as well as a Lord's
- He thinks you'll see him home now..because Shienaran lords always keep their word

- If this is a world that could be, maybe the monument to Artur Hawkwing is still standing
- Perrin being a wolf is older than humans using the one power, from the birth of time. He gave the other wolves the smell of the three
- Elyas Machera was a Warder!
- Masema went so far as to spit
- A side sniffer! You? You are as crazy as Rand
- Wolves would only track trollocs so Perrin doesn't want the wolves to kill them
- It's Rand she's after.
- Wherever you've gotten to, Rand, stay there. It's safer than here.
- This land was glad for a weapon to be made
- Something off about this place. Many trails of violence
- Swords do no good against me, Lews Therin. You should know that.
- Oh I know the name you use now... your life back to the First moment
- The girl who tries to watch over you

- Tam taught Rand to seek the void when shooting an arrow
- A man who will not die to save a woman v is no man - a Shienaran saying
- Selene - suspiciously calm. Asks Rand to let her touch the Horn
- Not from this world
- Some men choose to seek greatness, while others are forced to it. It is always better to be choose than to be forced. A man who's forced is never completely his own master. He must dance on the strings of those who forced him
- If you find the Horn of Valere, there will be no avoiding greatness. But will it be forced on you, or will you take it?

- All men dream. This is reality.
- Nynaeve put cracks in Lan's wall
- Moiraine wondered when he would ask her to release him from his bond.
- Above the Watchers he will proclaim himself (above Toman Head, Arad Doman or Saldaea)

- You are the very best of husbands
- Stay with me always
- Elayne thinks of Rand at the oddest of times
- Egwene felt a sudden stab of jealousy
- Else Grinwell wanted to become an Aes Sedai because of Rand
- Min - she saw that she, and several other women, would all "belong" to him in some way.

- He will go to Rhuidean and lead us out of the three fold land
- Ancient symbol of aes sedai will be used to conquer
- Bornhald hates the "Questioners" (the Whitecloak secret police). He realizes that he is being used as "Bait" or a "Blunt Instrument" for a plan he doesn't fully understand.
- Seanchan- those who come before, those who come home. Artur hawkwing?
- Seanchan made people swear oaths they had forgotten without telling them when they had Forsaken them and what they meant
- Correne, the return
- Damane female..slaves of the Seanchan..Egeanine. the Leashed Ones. Aes Sedai.. for nobles of the blood
- To obey To Await to serve. Your ancestors should have remembered

- Rhian the Aiel woman who forgot the Pact momentarily
- Did Fain order the Black Wind
- Tarmon Gai'don reset
- You two come from their village. In some way I do not entirely understand you are connected to them
