While Mat lies dying of doom-laden dagger disease, Rand explores the great city of Caemlyn and meets a colorful cast of characters. Loial the "hotheaded" "young" ogier full of lore, Elayne the daughter-heir of Andor, Elaida the Red, and Queen Morgase herself, just to name a few. Elsewhere, Nynaeve, Lan, and Moiraine launch a daring rescue of Perrin and Egwene from the Whitecloaks. Is our party about to be reunited at last?
Meanwhile, in TV land, forlorn warder Stepin copes with the loss of his bonded Kerene Sedai. Neither of whom are in The Eye of the World, but we presume there's a good reason we're spending one of this season's eight episodes on this subplot! We're just not sure what it is yet.
Nynaeve navigates her first taste of White Tower politics, from which she vows to protect Mat and Rand when they are finally reunited. Alas, poor Egwene and Perrin—captured by Whitecloaks for reasons unclear—have no such protector of their own...or do they?
