The Wheel of Time: Daes Dae'Mar Pity – Season 2 – Episode 7 – RECAP

Episode Seven has start an event I was waiting for some time, everyone including Rand and Egwene start using their powers at will, there is one thing I never consider is that Moiraine will recover her ability to connect again with the one power, not only that its exciting to see all this characters using their powers there is also Lanfear trying to show Rand she cares for him although it is still not clear when and where her "love" for Rand, The Dragon; goes off the cliff, they keep saying its always the same story that never ends and never change, Lanfear herself mention it "after 3000 years here I am..." when she was trying to help Rand escape, she is so powerful she feels been there creating a distraction for Rand is a waste of her time but she still did it because she loves Rand although he doesn't remember anything from his previous life.

There is also a good amount of the episode that gives more details about Siuan and Moiraine love story, on season one there was an episode that shows them sneaking out to a small house next to the river, I always ask myself why was that and where was that, but this episode gives more context of why they sneak out and where, things have change drastically when Siuan finds out Rand is the Dragon and Moiraine kept him from her and The White Tower, Siuan is piss at her badly to the point she demands as her superior and not as the women once loved her.

Let me tell you Moiraine looks so weird smiling, specially with such a big simile, all her teeth showing, for the most part on season one and two she have never laugh or smile like that I can remember, her dream and hope was to be with Siuan, get out of the tower and start a life together now that the ongoing war is over, Siuan thought the same but something more quiet, a house next to the river like she had when she was child, her dad's house, Moiraine even call herself Siaun Fishwife, I really don't give two fucks if the series was trying to push a message or not, it is very entertaining. It was at this point on her life that Moiraine would be destine to find the Dragon after she hold on her hands Sister Gitara, Ais Sedai; who had a vision of The Dragon Reborn, it was Rand's mother giving birth after battling for her life caring him inside.

This scene they divided in like three parts but mostly was Rand trying to be tough but at the same time docile, he finally meet with Amyrlin Seat, Siuan Seday, after all this entire party is for him, I wonder how much of his power will he be using on this season because he has no control over it, he is suppose to be the most powerful of them all but when ever he tries to use his powers it consume him, in this scene Siuan cut the bullshit and tells him straight up that The White Tower has rules and procedures, one of them put The Dragon in a cage and use him as a weapon to this Rand tries to fight back but it only took her a single wave of her hand to put him on his knees, at his point he has the potential but no control over his powers I think he cant even beat Moiraine on a one on one fight.

Moiraine is called by Siuan, she kept Rand from everyone else with the assumption that The White Tower was corrupt so she must kept him out of danger until he was ready, this got her no where, she "lost" her powers, Rand was found first by Lanfear and he cant even beat Siuan so they have got no where and Siuan feels the same, its time for things been done The White Tower way.

It is true that I have mention on this post how Rand has no control over his powers but he now has discover a way to communicate with Lanfear without having to actually sleep?? Lanfear is a dream walker, she can enter anyone's dream and kill him if she wanted. Rand is send to the dungeon to keep prisoner until Siuan says, he is been watch by Leane Sedai and at this point Moiraine still can't use her powers so there is no way out for Rand until he ask for Lanfear help, she is so fkn hot on her leather dress, obviously she accept to help him escape but not after a little foreplay, she likes to be "manipulated" by him like she wants him to be in charge but its not his time, things might be different in the future and this is when I think Rand will be tempted by the dark side, once he is able to fully control his powers, makes me think that at some point he will have his doubts and might side with Lanfear.

After I'm done with this season I might rewatch the entire thing including season one because I think I'm missing when may be Moiraine or some one else explain why Lanfear wants Rand so badly, at first I thought it was for his powers or to kill him but that was never the case, that time Moiraine cut Lanfear throat at the cabin she was about to do something with Rand, he was tied up to the bed but then Moiraine show up and ruin the hole thing, Lanfear creates the perfect distraction and set the town on fire so Rand could escape, Siuan had to team up with other sisters and create rain to put off the fire.

For the most part this episode was pure action, it was all about Lanfear, Rand, Moiraine and Siuan trying to make things work out, well except Lanfear she will just go with Rand but things went south when Siuan got Moiraine against the wall.

When Rand finally got the time to look at Moiraine and knew that her powers were taking he saw something in her, Ishamael put some sort of tie, a spell; that limits her so she could not use the one power and he had to gently destroy it, as they explain it was risky because if he use too much power could kill her but that was the boring part, it was Moiraine reaction to feel the power again that was really cool, it was a mid point of happy, cry and laughing at the same time, she opens a gateway, portals to travel through space and time; old dark passage, the moment Siuan caught them she force Moiraine to close it against her will using her power but everything came down for Siuan when Lanfear appears, I think Siuan is been blind by the fact that she is the Amyrlin Seat and by the White Tower laws, I don't want to say power got her overestimate Rand and Lanfear but its actually lack of understanding of what she is dealing, who she is dealing with, she thought could beat Lanfear and got drag around like it was nothing, falling and had to watch Lanfear open the gateway with Rand and Moiraine following her, WTF she must be thinking at that moment, who would have knowing a forsaken, the dragon and Aes Sedai getting into a gateway.

In between this entire awesome episode that got an 8.2/10, anything above 8 is fucking great; the cherry on top was Egwene, Rena and her got to a training session, there were a few things that got my attention, when they were about to execute an attack Rena told her "don't worry for this one I dont need anything from you" then Egwene explodes in power creating a huge expansion wave but the BEST part probably from the entire episode is when Egwene told Rena TO HER FACE, wearing her collar "I will kill you", this is HUGE, the reason is because women wearing the A'dam can not even THINK about hurting the one holding the leach, the fact that Egwene was able to do this says a lot of her power, how she had dominate and control her feelings, mind and powers is insane.

As usual WOT episodes end up on long posts, there were a few things that I try to resume from this one, now that I'm changing the format of my posts I try to bring a more graphic representation of my writing and I really enjoy but its way more work than previous posts, for those who support my content I really appreciate it.

This episode was crazy and from what I have seen the next, last episode is probably even better; finally every one is going to meet at Falme for the final of this season, I wonder who dies, I have to assume Lanfear doesn't because I think she will stay close to Rand until he is able to control his powers, so far seems that season three is on its way for 2024, now that Moiraine has her powers back things are going to change drastically but for how long she will stay close to Rand, after all Lanfear hates her.

Perry side story is still very insignificant for the main story but has become way more interesting than it was, same goes for Mat but those two are characters to fill up.

From all the TV series of 2023, WOT season two had the most dramatic come back in a season after people were constantly complaining for the first half how slow, boring, it was, while I was on the other side of the fence thinking this is going to get wild towards the end and it did.
