When Herid Fel discussed the Wheel of Time with Rand, he stated that the DOs prison would need to be made whole again, as opposed to being re-patched; as he did not think that the Creator would have made a prison for the DO with a patch already in it...

I've just finished reading most of the posts on this topic specific to the Seals and the Prison, and find that while there is much merit in all the theories they all have one major flaw. That flaw is likely based on the fact that many readers and th...

Portal Stones are the natural extension of our science once magic is introduced to the world. There is my attention getter. Here is a warning that the following is rather extemporaneous and tends to wander a bit on the general topic of the nature of...

<style type="text/css"> strong {font-weight: bold} em {font-style: italic} </style> The title might seem rather random and strange to some people. Maybe most people. But I was writing a post on 'dead yet lives', because I'm pretty confident about my...

<p>Do I have your attention? Do you think I'm crazy? Well, take a trip down this rabbit hole with me, then. A few weeks ago was <a href="http://www.jordancon.com" target="_blank">JordanCon</a>, where I was hanging out and talking with Team Jordan one...

<p>Sorry if it's not as detailed as I'd like it to be, but it's my first one :p</p> <p>Okay, I've been thinking for a while about that damn prophecy I found so cool I learned it :p</p> <blockquote> <p> Twice and twice shall he be marked.<br/> Twice t...

Ok, so we all know the catechism at the opening of tEotW, the Creator creates the Wheel and the Pattern and simultaneously the Dark One comes into existence outside them. The DO is a.. by product I suppose. This would insinuate that the dark one is i...

<p>This is not my theory - the idea was first mentioned <a href="http://z6.invisionfree.com/White_Tower_Library/index.php?showtopic=162">on the 13th Depository forums</a> after the release of <i>The Gathering Storm</i> - but I thought it would be a g...

<p>My theory explains how Verin delicately guided Egwene to contact the person in the Tower who Verin trusted with the knowledge of the location of the Horn of Valere.</p> <p>Verin hid the Horn cleverly even to get it to the Tower:</p> <blockquote> <...

From chapter 46, "To Be Forged Again": Silviana said... "I'm going to have to get used to a lot of things changing, I suspect." "I'm afraid so," Egwene said. "Not the least of which will be the need to choose a proper Mistress of Novices, one wh...

Throughout all the books I have always made the assumption that somehow Rand will die, but destroy the dark one in the process, and I have always wondered the "why's" behind this. One, most stories about Heroes are tragic at least on some level. T...

<p>Warning: longtheory is long. However, if you are familiar with the passages that I have quoted from the books, then the theory itself isn't all that long. For those who are less familiar with those passages, I have bolded what I think are some p...

<p>Ok, in this thread I'm going to try to offer an answer for two mysteries. Who is the Fake Rand who appears to Masema in tGS, and who are Masuri and Annoura meeting with in Masema's camp throughout KoD. It's somewhat convuluted, so bear with me.</p...

<p>Here is a Theory I started 2 years ago on a reread preparing for the release of "The Gathering Storm". I only wrote half of it and then Wotmania closed down and since I never went to any of the other WoT sites it got shelved. So since now Towers...

Clearly it is not simply a matter of the Dragon killing the shadow to end this amazing story. Jordan had more in mind with this epic. The Dragon is a champion - but a man. It is not a believable ending that somehow Rand can somehow kill the Shadow i...

<p><span style="font-style:italics; font-weight: bold; font-size: 1.2em">Note: There is one small Towers of Midnight spoiler in this theory regarding the content of the first chapter that was released by TOR weeks ago. If you do not want to know, do ...

Now, I've posted this on a certain other WoT forum before, but as the post seems to have disappeared, I'll have to start from scratch. For the record, this does contain spoilers for The Gathering Storm. The first evidence that Taim is not exactly a...

<p>You don’t remember who Valeria is? Let me tell you of the days of high adventure...</p> <p>In a 2003 interview the Creator said:</p> <blockquote> <p>"when Tom Doherty got the rights to do the Conan novels, he needed the first one very fast so tha...

<p>The Dark One has been attempting for untold millennia to escape his prison. Why has he failed? Does he have a chance to succeed? What are his tools? What are his plans? This theory will attempt to show how the Dark One has been experimenting ...
