This is The Wheel of Time Unraveled, where I explain every easter egg, lore description, & secret I could find in The Wheel of Time season 2 episode 5: damane. This video is safe for non-book readers and/or show-only watchers but is also helpful for long-time book readers.
SPOILER WARNING: Book spoilers are only mentioned if they pertain to events that have already happened in the show. Book spoilers in this episode cover some things from books 1-3, The Eye of the World, The Great Hunt, & The Dragon Reborn and a teeny tiny mention of something from Book 7 which will not spoil anything for you. Show spoilers will cover everything we know so far from episodes up through S2 E5, including behind-the-scenes info.

CORRECTION: "The Hailene" is not "the Return." The Hailene means "The Forerunners" or "Those Who Come Before." They were sent to begin the Return, which is the "Corenne." Episodes 3 & 4 Unraveled aren't out yet! I wanted to jump to the current episodes and catch up later. Love you all!

“Entire culture of punchable faces”. No truer words have been spoken.

@mcina001 8 месяцев назад

I didn’t think it was possible, but you’ve leveled up in your Unraveling. Truly amazing. In a previous video, you mentioned they use the word “Dark” too often in place of “Shadow.” I felt the same on first watch, but thinking about the books more, it’s not actually inconsistent in quality (just in quantity). It’s the DARK one or Great Lord of the DARK, DARKfriends or friends of the DARK, DARKhounds. While the entity in whole is most often referred to as the Shadow, it is fairly rarely used in compound words (such as the Aiel calling Myrddraal “shadow man” or darkfriends “shadow runners”). The word “dark” is certainly not uncommon, and I see the two as essentially canonically synonymous. Full book spoilers to follow…. . . The show has really captured the essence of the Forsaken. Ishamael isn’t Ba’alzamon insane, but he’s remarkably manipulative and comes right out and states the fact of his true loyalty to the Dark One. And Lanfear is just as competent and unhinged as in the books. One can understand how she ends up helping the Light, even if not truly by intention. And “the boys” are incompetent in the books. For all their wheelings and dealings, Aginor, Balthamel, Be’lal, Rah’vin, Sammael, and even Demandred don’t achieve as much as they should. Sure, there were reasons why each fails, but ultimately none was as cautious as he should have been. Not sure yet whether Moghedien being “crazy” implies she’s absorbing Semirhage’s persona or whether Semirhage is part of Lanfear’s personality in the show (notice she wears black in T’A’R).

@roxelaneelmira4678 8 месяцев назад

About the idea that Lanfear or Moghedien is absorbing Semirhage, when Moiraine says that what we know about Lanfear is that she loves cruelty without reason, it feels more like S. than pure L. Yet, it's her that gets involved with the Seanchan, not Ishamael, so I think they might just split her parts in various other Forsaken. For instance, I think that it might indeed be Moggy that will play with the male adam, as her role after that event could easily be taken by Graendal. Of course, both of their fate are very interesting so they'll have to choose either one, but oh well!

@mcina001 8 месяцев назад

@@roxelaneelmira4678 I like your hypothesis. I’ll be curious to see who’s responsible for using the Domination Bands. Given how Lanfear is dressed in T’A’R at the end of episode 5, I’d surmise it could actually be Lanfear, but having Moghedien do that piece makes sense too. Loving the show right now!

@gokbay3057 8 месяцев назад

@mcina001 8 месяцев назад

@@gokbay3057 Exactly. And beyond that, having him strangle his lover would fit perfectly. On the other hand, Lanfear’s gotten more 2 or 3 months of Dragon bone already. Not sure any of the three ladies will top that going forward!

Has she though? I think that's "dream bone." Also, I have a feeling Lanfear is probably pretty selfish in bed, which doesn't exactly sound fun all of the time.

@uuamenator 8 месяцев назад

I couldn't have asked for a better Ishamael. They really made him have awesome presence, and style! I find again and again remembering that WoT is by no means a perfect story, and a LOT of elements in there have started poorly developed for a long time, or even different from how they eventually ended up, that having this re-turning of the wheel and smoothing out the sharp edges and adding/subtracting necessary/unnecesary elements is such a massive blessing to the WoT series. I sincerely hope they keep it going for the entire story until the end!

Funny how Liandrin brings the horses thru the Ways when in s1 Lan or Moiraine said horses would die in there. Another “I hope they forget” bit, but I seem to recall Rafe or Henney saying they did that cuz IRL the movable set pieces built for the ways during COVID restrictions meant they were too dangerous for horses & they’d prob break legs (which also IRL means death for a horse. So the truth an Aes Sedai tells you isn’t always the truth you think you hear 😂😂)

@UnravelingthePattern 8 месяцев назад

Haha, nice

@ryazanalester6136 8 месяцев назад

Liandrin mentions a great king to Nynaeve as she explains why the Aes Sedai bound themselves to the Three Oaths. Its reminiscent to s1e2, where Egwene named that great king when Moiraine asked her what she knows about the Three Oaths. Just like in the books, its important to take note of every conversation, because information are being sprinkled throughout, and you have to connect the dots to see the bigger picture.

*the Hailene isn’t the Return. The Hailene are “the Forerunners” or “Those who come before”. The Corenne is the Return (which hasn’t happened in the show yet)

Great video Lauren. I wish many FB posters would watch your videos and Jon from WoT Up. You present such balanced views and I think it is great you focus on the similarities to and the little details in the books the show has picked up on rather than focus on the differences. To me, the core of the story is still there. and the show is recognisable as the books I have read 3 times - with some good changes and some not so good.

The blue on the suldams' faces is paint over their scarification. It appears to be their battle makeup.

It's hard to say if it's permanent or not, but I like this interpretation.

I just have to say, Jessica Walter/Lucille Bluth as "Lanfear" at 15:18 made me laugh out loud embarrassingly hard. I did not expect Arrested Development to work so well for WoT memes. As always, thank you for all the time and effort you put into making these! The production quality is unbelievable.

I really liked this episode, especially the scenes with Aviendha en Perrin! I did find the transition from Nyneave saying to Elayne: "Where is Egwene?" to them already arriving in Falme a bit weird. Could have used a scene where they see Egwene captured or something like that. But other than that it was a great episode!

@HowieStephens 8 месяцев назад

Yeah I think that scene suffered a little for not having the Min interactions and not having the interactions between Egwene and the sul'dam (which I expect they're saving for ep.6). In the book iirc we didn't see much of Nynaeve and Elayne's efforts except like lightning bolts in the distance, so maybe they should've expanded that fight more for the show. I wonder if they're making it so Nynaeve just can't really do regular weaving besides her big outbursts? I bet we'll see some action from her in the big upcoming fights though.

Ahhh excited to watch this later today! This episode was one of my favorites. I’m so glad they’re leaning into the campiness of the forsaken!!! Ishy and Lanfear playing chicken in the dream world was so funny

The gif of Lanfear saying "obviously" needs to be meme'd all over the internet

There was a great YT video on IMDb's channel called The Making of The Wheel of Time Season 2 Extended Interview. At 12:23 there is a portion about trivia where the Production Designer confirms your thoughts about the seals representing the Forsaken that will be in the show. He even says "the names of each of the Forsaken are hidden in the design" and that each seal represents a specific Forsaken, though English isn't his first language so that could be a language barrier issue.... anyway, I thought you might enjoy that! Great video as always!

@UnravelingthePattern 8 месяцев назад

I did see that. I've been wanting to talk more about the seals, but this video was already way too long! I have talked about it in greater detail in another video though. It's my "Forsaken Theories" video.

GREAT video my friend! And thanks for using my map and the one from Dimension Door! This show needs MORE MAPS! And great They Might Be Darkfriends reference! 😂

@UnravelingthePattern 8 месяцев назад

You betcha! I love both maps, but sometimes I like to mix things up. Yours is especially good in a wide shot, and the Dimension Door map is sometimes better for close-ups. They're both AMAZING!

@RobChristianson 8 месяцев назад

@@UnravelingthePattern yeah I have a print of the Dimension Door map right above my monitors! I won it on an Instagram contest they had that I just stumbled upon while doing research for my own map

Thanks for all your great work explaining all these small and big details of the episodes. It helps us non-readers of the book series, to understand a bit better what's going on in the story. I have enjoyed watching the TV series so far. I just wish we had more episodes within the season so they could explain and develop better all those details.
