Chapter 30 (Children of Shadow)

Given what I just mentioned about the previous chapter being dark and all that, this chapter is still stock full of some pretty nasty characters. Made all the more loathsome as they utterly believe they are doing the right thing. In history, I believe, those are the groups that commit the most heinous of acts. No man is so lost he cannot be brought into the Light.

Chapter 29 (Eyes Without Pity)

I'm not sure that anywhere else in the series do you find someone who handles Egwene as aptly as Elyas. Here's another quote from him that I love, "You expecting to make that mare crawl?" As Egwene hops down to try to join Elyas and Perrin scouting ahead.

Chapter 28 (Footprints in Air)

Was it the age difference, experience difference or just personalities? Probably a little of the first two and a lot of the second. But Nynaeve and Moraine are such opposites and I don't know about you, but I definitely prefer Moraine, at least here. 

Chapter 27 (Shelter From the Storm)

Back to Perrin and Egwene traveling leisurely with Elyas and accompanying the Tinkers. Here, I love the quote from Elyas when querried on why they're not moving faster "Don't be in such a bloody hurry to put yourself in Aes Sedai hands."

Chapter 26 (Whitebridge)

"Teach him how you will, a pig will never play the flute." Thom, on his attempt to teach Mat the flute.

Chapter 25 (The Traveling People)

Again with the traveling taking forever. Before I stopped posting three years ago I'd actually had notes on chapters 24 and 25, and what I had on this chapter was "they traveled three days." So much more happens, but the traveling...man, actually, that was also used as a way to introduce the world, well done, sir.

Chapter 24 (Flight Down the Arinelle)

"He pressed, seeking freedom, knowing it was an illusion. Everything was an illusion..." Another chapter opening with a dream from Ba'alzamon..."How long do you think you can evade me, boy? How long do you think you can evade your fate? You are mine!"
