Does no one but me think the strangeness Min senses is not only because they can chanel as children but because Rand probably fathered them after he was in Moridan's body? Nothing indicates she is pregnant before. Explains why the one looks like a wetlander, dark hair and all. Rand never looked liked a wetlander.

A raven is the sign of the Dark One and Alviarin's mark was explicitly compared to a tattoo by RJ in the Tor Questions of the Week. My view is that the raven tattoo was a reference to Alviarin, the woman who was to kill her.<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />LJ.LordJussnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4833204375789249557.post-18843841222057924052011-03-18T06:38:22.083-04:002011-03-18T06:38:22.083-04:00First she told Rand that if Rand knew what she saw...First she told Rand that if Rand knew what she saw around him his hair would be as curly as Perrin's. (That refers to the tougher of the viewings around Rand.) He asked her if she saw anything about rats or dreams. She said no rats, and then she made the crack about what she saw not being her idea of a dream. She knows she's involved in this as well as going to love Rand. The whole of it certainly messes up her life.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14767984732078916662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4833204375789249557.post-71659213114343546792011-03-17T18:20:56.209-04:002011-03-17T18:20:56.209-04:00Regarding Min's viewings with Rand in tEotW - ...Regarding Min's viewings with Rand in tEotW - in their first discussion he then asks if any of her viewings of him referred to Dreams and she, somewhat slyly, replies that she saw something that, while it might be his idea of a dream, it certainly wasn't hers.<br /><br />Reading this immediately made me believe it was her referring to her falling in love with him.Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15302236211719859378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4833204375789249557.post-10028558392966946942011-01-19T06:58:04.437-05:002011-01-19T06:58:04.437-05:00Hans: Thanks for the suggestions.

I think this was fulfilled at Dragonmount when Perrin was present in the Wolf Dream just as the storm reached its crescendo. The fact that Perrin had to race to the top of the mountain, need urging him on, suggests that he had to be there for some reason. There's a parallel with Lord of the Rings, when Frodo is stuck on the top of Amon Hen with the ring on (after fleeing from Boromir) and Gandalf strives to free him from the Ring's influence.<br /><br />In addition, I haven't got the exact quote to hand, but the imagery from Perrin's POV also seems to be very close to that of the stars/fireflies rushing in and being swallowed (and later on stabilised as Rand hung on a thread).Paulnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4833204375789249557.post-52436267317684108692011-01-02T20:55:30.728-05:002011-01-02T20:55:30.728-05:00Tom: Good point.

They have two red-head parents; or at least one red-head (Rand) and one strawberry-blond/red-gold (Aviendha). Yet one has dark hair. And as you say they can channel from birth. One of the channelling girls isn't going to be a Wise One, either. Nor does Aviendha ever remark on their remarkableness to herself, as though this is the least of their weirdness.<br /><br />I will link this viewing to my interpretation of Aviendha's vision when I write that up.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14767984732078916662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4833204375789249557.post-21761092585743692612011-01-02T19:28:01.097-05:002011-01-02T19:28:01.097-05:00Don't you think the odd thing about Aviendha&#...Don't you think the odd thing about Aviendha's babies is the fact that they can channel from birth, more than the fact that they're fraternal?Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17006943271434386039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4833204375789249557.post-15628812628729958992010-12-31T20:53:23.446-05:002010-12-31T20:53:23.446-05:00Thanks Shadar.

Are you saying that because the pattern is being unnaturally influenced by the Dark One that Min's viewing are becoming less reliable.
