Finally the two main characters are in speaking terms with each other...

Can't wait until the 2 main characters get along as friends...

Wait.... Wait... What was that cliffhanger?!!!! Did Victor do it for real?!!!

Hmmmm I can already tell this new vampire Rinya is bad news. Hope this doesn't turn into a love triangle, what will become of my favorite couple?!

The plot twist deepens. Someone higher ranked than Hina and who has a crush on her? Oh no! What will become of Amanatsu and Hina?!

Future BR notes: I can see this book being a movie, each scene feels like a dream, and mists in each scene change. The author writes 3 different worlds so seamlessly and vividly (reality, performance, and fantasy world), and in different POVs that fills in alot of blanks. The villains are aptly named Terrors, their power so terrible and vicious, you'd hope they get overthrown soon & you emphatize with the ppl there.

Geezus, the emperor is so vicious. I hope he dies soon. I can see why no one likes him. His whole family is messed up!

Araya the drunk and the assassin. Keema the outcast rebel. Can't wait to see how these two develops.

This book reads like a whimsical fairytale, so smooth in its writing/storytelling. Very poetic in its prose. Pretty good so far, the story is really engaging. The worldbuilding unravels the mystery little by little.
Still unsure if it's all just a dream or if it's actually reality, both is woven so seamlessly into the story.

Rand killed Rahvin in the world of dreams with the help of Nynaeve.
Balefire was so hot it reversed time and Mat, Aviendha, and Asmodean got resurrected. But somehow Asmodean died again suddenly? Morgase seemed to be alive and not dead. Rand wants to keep men who can channel alive. Book 5 ends!

Wth, Rahvin killed Mat, Avidhenda, and some others, they killed a taveren, whatttt! :O Rand is on a rampage just using balefire trying to find him in the throne room. It also seems like he's possessed, maybe Lews Terin? He's not remembering who he is as he's walking down the halls...

Everyone still reeling over how Moraine died. Rand made a platform from thin air in that dreamworld(?) to travel long distance to kill Rahvin. They just up and arrived there with the maiden spears. They just arrived, but trollocs and mrydralls are fighting them. Hmmm, so the new king is working with the dark side eh? Allllllmost done with this book!

Notes:
- Lanfear suddenly showed up and there was a big surprise attack on Rand
- Moraine shoved Lanfear through an Terangreal doorway and "died"
- Lan's contract got passed on to another green sister. (Dammit!!) And he told Rand to tell Nynaeve to forget about him
- Rand checks on Egwene and Adviendha. They lived.
- Still no maidens of the spear, Lanfear probably balefired them.

Note for Helen:
- Assassination attempt by Melindhra at Mat, she was using a dagger with bees, a sign of a darkfriend. He killed her and feels bad since it's the first time he killed a woman.
- Moraine told rand to go to the docks as he was getting ready to go kill Rahvin.
- Rand notice he had no maidens around him when there usually were alot.
- Lanfear waited by the docks and started killing and injuring people

Note for Helen: Morgase is dead. Elayne is going to be pissed that Rand didn't prevent it. Rand is going to Andor tomorrow to get the right king on the throne. Maybe one of the Forsaken will be there? Lanfear battle? All of Rand's Aes Sedai entourage are all worried about tomorrow's battle.

Note for Helen:
- Nynaeve & friends are getting questioned by the band of rebel Aes Sedai
- The Aiels keep bringing girls to Rand's room but Aviendha keep stopping it, guess she's jealous.
- Morgase is dead, Gaebril is now king of Andor

LOL... and here's the competition arc in any shounen stories... it always makes me laugh how over the top it all is sometimes, and also kinda predictable, but still entertaining these stories are.

Note to self: Rand & the Aeil won a great victory at Cairhien. Mat killed Couladin. Rand sent the spears south, toward Tear. Nynaeve & Elayne went to the Aes Sedai resistance camp and told them everything, about the world of dreams and their adventures thus far. A cuendillar seal broke, three remains. Nynaeve met up with Min and two more girls are taken by Faolain to be tested if they can channel.
