I could swear I knew the answer in grade 5 and no longer remember but like at what point is it one step to the right and no wind and suddenly wind a step further. Like rain starts from the clouds (and I assume thunder too) but what about wind.

There are neither beginnings nor endings to the turning of the Wheel of Time. But it was a beginning. Born below the ever cloud-capped peaks that gave the mountains their name, the wind blew east, out across the Sand Hills, once the shore of a great ocean, before the Breaking of the World.

I don't care what anyone says about the show I'm pumped to watch s2e6 tonight.

It's not the greatest but it's still decent fantasy TV. There's so much crap that I'm happy with decent ๐Ÿ˜‚

I haven't gotten around to watching it yet!

It can be very disappointing if you've read the books.

Seriously no one is going to give the title? Everyone just assuming everyone gets the reference?

Wheel of Time

I thought season 1 was okay. Weird Perrin had a wife.. don't know how that will play out later. Did they use matches at the beginning? I guess that plot is gone but it was minor enough I guess. Additional romance stuff was typical to gain a broader audience I suppose. Overall I was relatively happy. Much better than Sword of Truth's show adaptation.

Didn't know season 2 had started, is it further from the books?

They didn't have matches in the books prior to Mat traveling with the Illuminator who invented the cannons. She also invented the matches.
