#Barney harris leave wheel of time how to
Lan’s top priority, though, is locating Moiraine, and Nynaeve informs him of how to do so because of a “tell” she has. We then pick up with our two sets of characters, as Rand and Moiraine make their way through the Blight, towards the Eye of the World, and Lan and the Emond’s Fielders reel from the revelation that Rand is the Dragon Reborn. There are some issues with Lews Therin’s first scene in the show but overall I liked it. However, I guess they did need to show how far the world had fallen since the Breaking of the World, so it’s not too much of an issue. We even get a good look at the futuristic setting of the Third Age, which looks oddly good for a time when the Dark One threatened the world. It really showed a commitment to the world building of the lore, even if some parts of it were contradicted. Seriously, how the heck did she predict that?Īlthough, I was able to look past these issues during my first watch of the episode because I liked how the scene was performed in old tongue. Yeah, that was the first sign of trouble in the episode because there are quite a few inaccuracies to the most simple parts of the lore in this opening scene, like Lews Therin’s title, and Latra (Katie Brayben) somehow knowing the Dark One would taint the male half of the One Power.
The reason for this is that the cold open for the episode is our first introduction to Rand’s prior life, Lews Therin Talamon (Alexander Karim), the Dragon Reborn… wait “reborn?”
This is especially bad considering this is the first season’s finale, and I am really hoping it is not an indication of the quality of future seasons.Īdmittedly, when “The Eye of the World” first started, I was pretty excited for it.
Although I have had some issues with Amazon Prime’s adaptation of The Wheel of Time, mostly to do with the premiere episode, I overall enjoyed the show up to Episode Seven… then I watched Episode Eight.ĭirected by Ciarian Donnely again, this episode, titled “The Eye of the World”, is without question the weakest of the season, so far.
