The Dragon Reborn

Twice and twice shall he be marked Twice to live and twice to die Once the heron, to set his path Twice the heron, to name him true Once the dragon, for remembrance lost Twice the dragon, for the price he must pay

The way Robert Jordan writes about craft is so soft dude. Even when it's clear he doesn't 100% know what goes into making something he seems so invested in the pride and joy and skill and culture when it comes to making things. The way he describes hand carved wood, and embroidery, and fabrics is so fucking soft dude.

Like he isn't just going into the details of everything for no reason, he highlights stuff that the characters would notice or care about in their different crafts, Perrin noticing metal work, Matt's obsession with little complex mechanisms, Nyneave appreciating the way plants are used in different parts of the world as she travels and even all the little thoughts and comments about simple strong handspun wool cloaks or elegantly embroidered cloth.

I really am enjoying reading through this series, the story is really good, but I can't help just smiling like a little dork every time Robert Jordan talks about craft, makes me feel very seen.

This is verbose worldbuilding done well.

Wheel of Time sleeve done. On to the next book.

[aromerrowace]

I’m sure this exists somewhere but Wheel of Time au where Moiraine and Siuan find Rand before Tam does (somehow. His Ta’veren bs can pull them toward him and Siuan sees him glowing from far off idk) and they’re gonna take him to the tower but they haven’t been Aes Sedai for very long so they haven’t mastered the whole duty and demeanor over lives thing (the thing we see Nyneave face in her Aes Sedai test) and they’re now the only people alive who know of their mission so they just carry him around on their adventures.

He learns sword fighting from Lan and mind games from Moiraine and fishing from Siuan and cusses more than Mat but like a Tairen. They constantly play hide and seek with him so that if anyone asks if the Dragon has been found, they can say “no I have not found him” and it’s not a lie

Me being like "aw, I can see it" and then getting hit with

[follow-your-heartstone]

I know we like to joke about the Rand 'having three weed smoking girlfriends' meme, but have we considered how dangerous that would be considering the warder bond they all share

"No officer I haven't smoked anything tonight. I am just getting second hand stoned through the psychic link I share with my three girlfriends who are all blazing it and now I think The Wheel is mad at me"
