I thought E4 was an absolute blast. Definitely stepped as far from book-canon as possible. I would say moreso than any other show. But the writing was spot-on, and the stuff that shocked me at first really doesn't change where they can go with it.

I really enjoyed this one. I called that the wolf visions were just the wolves relaying info, not some new power. I also enjoyed the Easter egg for readers in the last couple of seconds of the episode.

I was thinking that the visions of the past (like the massacre scene in the village) was Perrin interpreting the details of his enhanced smell, but I can see it being both the applications of Wolfbrother ability

Hmm.. I'm curious which Easter Egg that is; or do you mean the reading of the Prophecy itself. Otherwise, I must have missed it.

Look closely at Lanfear’s eyes at the end of the episode.

Holy flummery!!! I can't believe I missed that. That's incredible. It's a slight pivot on the books, but it explains the discrepancy in a way much more impactful than just "can't kill a Forsaken".

I wonder if it's just an Easter Egg, or the term "saa" will come up. When Ishy didn't have any saa, I thought it was just on the cutting room floor...
