In the books, there is no qualification that anyone who is not the Dragon during this confrontation will die, so there’s no reason for Moiaine and Rand to go off on their own. In the books: Moiraine, Lan, Rand, Egwene, Nynaeve, Perrin, Mat and Loial all head for the Eye of the World. Rand denies him again and blasts him with the One Power, seemingly ending the threat, although there are hints that there’s more we don’t know. There they confront the Man, who tempts Rand with a vision of a peaceful life he could share with Egwene. Rand and Moiraine push through the corruption, and eventually reach the Dark One’s prison at the Eye of the World. Rand denies him and wakes from the dream by falling on his sword. As they rest, Rand is visited by a mysterious man in his dreams, the same one who showed up for him and the other Emond’s Fielders in the second episode. Moiraine explains that it’s only been 40 years since Malkier fell, a sign of the growing strength of the Dark One. Rand is unsure how to channel, but Moiraine assures him that when his life is in danger, the One Power will be there.Īlong the way, they see the now-corrupted towers of Malkier, where Lan was born and his family died. She tells him to use it to destroy the Dark One when the time comes. Moiraine gives Rand an angreal, an object through which he can channel the One Power, which will multiply his own power. They talk about Egwene and Rand wonders if Moiraine will teach him to channel, but she says she cannot.
