Stop pretending, Moiraine. I think you're afraid. You don't want me to know how weak you feel. How unprepared. Overwhelmed.Because then you'll have to face it yourself. You can't hurt me anymore, Moiraine. It took me a long time to accept what you said, about us not being equals, but I understand it now. And I believe in what you do, even now, when I know not half of it. The only reason that I was able to say that you're not my equal is that I've known one thing to be true since the first day we met. You have always been my better. Let me back in.

I have wondered along the same lines. Everyone seems to know how Lan feels about Nynaeve. I suppose they weren’t really discreet in the Stone, so those Aiel could have brought it back with them. I would really love to see Lan interacting more with the Aiel in the Three-Fold Land.

The Fires of Heaven, chapter 14 “Meetings”.

Nynaeve doesn’t try to keep her feelings for Lan a secret, and Melaine has been travelling with Moiraine and Egwene - plenty of opportunity to pick up on all the gossip. And to observe whatever indications there are that Lan cares (Moiraine has thought that Lan doesn’t deny that he loves for Nynaeve, and earlier in this scene Egwene told Nynaeve “He worries about whether you are safe”). 

But how does Melaine know that Lan would be so affected by Nynaeve’s death? Gossip or observation? Or she just saying that because she knows it’s a threat Nynaeve will take seriously?

Knowing (thanks to the Companion) that Melaine is so much older than she looks - much older than Nynaeve - changes my understanding of Melaine’s perspective here. There’s years of experience lying behind her words.

Here! I made some WoT sketches with Krita tonight! Just wanted to try this new program. I’m finally reading the 7th book after a looong pause

“You were right about Bela, Rand. She has a good heart, and as much stubbornness as the rest of you Two Rivers Folk.”

Yes, I did edit it because she needed to be more shaggy! That’s what happens when you impulse post 😳😂

the music in WOT is never random. even if it's just very soft background music, it's relevant to the scene. practically every time there's music playing while egwene is onscreen during s2, the tune is egwene's theme, rearranged and reinstrumentated in dozens of different ways to match the tone of the particular scene. mat has quick little snippets of his theme tune play during various scenes of his, often mixed with the old blood theme from s1, and it finally blares out in full glory for the first time during the horn of valere scene, to parallel how mat is truly finding himself for the first time. even secondary characters like liandrin, siuan, and aviendha have their own dedicated theme tunes that play during their scenes and are never repurposed as background music in other characters' scenes. and all the themes have lyrics in the old tongue that suit the character or concept the theme is about! in conclusion, lorne balfe is truly doing the Most, and i'm so grateful he's the composer for WOT and i hope he'll return for every season the show goes for.

Grinwell Cup finale pits Lan against Leane. Obviously I have a strong preference in this one!
