Matt again gained some time from the curse. This in practice means he'll not get screentime, or characterisation even in this book either. Why is he in the story, I don't get it then. Assuming later he gets some role why not just pack him up, and send to Tar Valon with the dagger? And don't say because the dagger was stolen, because why was the dagger stolen? How is the Horn and the Dagger being at the same place make any sense narratively? They are practicaly made the same item. Worse, we have no real interrest to get the horn back. It is unusable from what I get from its lore. And we don't get deeper into its lore, so for us no more part of the lore exists, therefor that's how much we care about the Horn. The Horn itself could have been the mcguffin for this volume, and that'd work. This doesn't.
We get a poem, a darkling prophecy. It starts with "The LAdy of the Dark" - this is obviously Lanfear. So she'll be the miniboss forsaken for this volume. And the poem goes on as a list, therefor that Luc is a Forsaken too. Given he was some noble "lost" in the Blight, that fits. nd there is some Isam too, he is some lost noble too. We also get some loredump about King Arthur's lost army or whatever - I. Don't. Care. It's all white noise.
RJ is building up something between Egweene and Perrin (love interrest)? I've noticed it during last book's separation too.
Rand keeps strougling telling the guys he is a mage.
