The "cleansing" of Saidin results in the "taint" passing to Saidar.

Perrin will kill Fain for murdering his family and help the Tinkers find their song

I predict that in some way, shape or form, Shara will play a part in the Last Battle, fighting for the light.

Min will be kidnapped before the Last Battle by the Shadow because she is important to Rand, and because she is figuring out how to seal the DO's prison. That will kick Rand into action to rescue her, as he will go beserk, and thus start the Last Battle.

In the final installment, I foresee Rand being aided directly at Tarmon Gaidon by either Alivia and Nynaeve OR Avienda and Elayne. Alivia and Nynaeve will have the strength between them to resist the taint through the male adam, and control Rand wielding Callandor (something else requiring women working with him) - thereby circumventing hisenduring dizziness (despite cleansing the True Source). Also, this may allow Alivia to support LTT's demise while keeping Rand alive. <br>However, Avienda and Elayne could be the key to controlling Rand in the same manner, as they may be the only people he trusts at that point and their bond may also give them some protection. Once he has battled the DO at Shayol Ghul, DO will kill LTT (which he wants) by splitting Rand's wound and taking his soul, but Rand will survive ( I think I'm swaying towards the two soul theory). Also, the taint of Aridhol will play a part in the defeat of the DO. Egwene will use her ability with Cuendillar and that of the other Two Rivers Girls to reseal the Bore. The DO is part of a balance and therefore cannot be destroyed utterly, so he must be captive for the next age turning, when it will start again.

RJ will keep introducing more and more main characters into the story up until the very last page

I predict that Mat giving up half the light of the world to save it involves him somehow giving one of his eyes to Rand after Rand loses his sight. Rand needs to see to channel and if he cannot channel the scales are tipped in the Shadow's favor.

Min is the only real possible choice to end the series with Rand in the event of a happily ever after scenario. Elayne will rule Andor, and Avi being Elaynes adopted sis, will stick closer to Elayne than Rand, though he is important to both Elayne and Avi, both have something else besides Rand to channel their efforts into after the LB,(Elayne - Andor & Avi - Diashann Aiel) not to mention that both can channel, whereas Min is mortal, that is she will not slow age and therefore will only live a quarter of the life that Avi and Elayne will. Given also that both Avi and Elayne are definatly going to have Rands kids, it seems likely that they will be able to give him up in a way, knowing that its for the best but regreting the circumstances nevertheless. One of the key circumstances tying this prediction together is the probability that Rand will no longer be able to channel after TG, and will therefore age normally, alienateing him from Avi and Elayne and channellers in general. Min is suited to a lifestyle of life in the 2 rivers raising sheep. (I think she has a wool thing..:))

I predict that Egwene that when she takes over as amyrylin of the real white tower she will name Silviana as her keeper and thus gaining red ajah support. <br> <br>She will Bond and marry gawyn but he will soon after die at TG.

Taim will be Killed By Logain Before the last battle and Logain will lead the ashaman to TG.

Min will die at the beginning or just prior to the LB attempting to do something that Herid fel discovered that she thinks Rand would be unable or unwilling to do. this act will shatter Rands notions of who he will and will not be willing to kill.

Ok I am trying to put together my theory on this one, but I had to get my prediction down b4 my mind fryed. Noal is Gaidal Cain reborn. He isn't exactly pretty, so he will appeal to Birgitte when they meet, which hasn't happened in bk 11.

Having invented/is on a brink of inventing cannons he extrapolates the idea to portable guns (muskets). A prototype blows up in his face resulting loss of an eye.

Mat and Perrin will function as a diversionary force being critical in buying time while Rand leads a relatively small strike force to finish the job at Pit of Dhoom. For some reason it will be very crucial that forces of Light will not cave in before Rand finishes whatever he's doing. <br> <br>Alternatively we could see almost copy of how LTT did it. Mat leads the Band as "the 20000 men army" to enable/protect Rand to go mano-i-mano with the DO. Like Rand & Nynaeve where relatively helpless during the Cleansing. The battle will be fought firstly in the real world and when Rand manages to push DO back to outside of the Pattern then the third man will sacrifice himself to fix the bore and allowing Rand to escape.

I predict that Birgette will Die and will be reborn back into the pattern to get her back into a "normal" cycle

Cadsuane will be killed by Semirhage

I predict Moiraine will be a Key component of helping Rand win the LB.

Is likely Martine Janata and my belief is that she will be discovered, Mat knows she was an AS and she is sticking to him for the moment. When it is revealed who she is and if she is healed, she would be one of the best choices for Rand and Egwene to consult about the re sealing of the bore on the DO's prision with the cuendillar discs.

I hope that Herid Fel's note "have to clear rubble before building" means that the Dark One's old prison malfunctions and cannot be patched anymore, so Rand will have to destroy the old prison and build an entirely new one made of cuendillar. Such a move would be extremely dangerous and quite entertaining for us, readers. :)

Not sure if this in anywhere on this board, but You can see where Tarmon Gaidon is if you go to Google Earth. <br> <br>Spin Africa a bit crooked to line Cape Verde up with Tremalking or the islands to the north of Tremalking. Aile Dashar becomes the Islands of Medeira. The blight is where the Mediteranian is now. Tarmon Gaidon should be at the east side of the blight in Israel at the Armageddon Plains. Someone may blast open the gates of Heracles to flood the blight creating the Med! <br> <br>Rand will pick 12 companions including Mazrim Tain to attend him at Tarmon Gaidon, but they will fail him. Rand will die willingly. Fight the dark one and rise three days later. Three womem will be there when Rand rises after all the men have given up. (Min, Avienda, and Elaine) Rand will visit with Mat and Perin and go back to the Emonds Field and retire.
