Whew, this was probably my biggest WOT 101 video to date. I hope you like it! Please remember to like the video and to subscribe! And please keep main series spoilers light in the comments. Thanks!

9:16 You left a crucial fact out. The White tower, swore three oaths, to Artur Hawkwing for the siege of Tar Valon to be lifted. Three oaths, sworn on a one Power artefact, that made them binding.
each Aes Sedai, still has to swear these three same oaths.

I was googling just to confirm my timeline stuff before wotcon 23 and then realised Lauren had done it already - very well done

[katysedai]

This is such a helpful overview of the history. Even as a long time reader, I find it hard to remember the order of events sometimes. You also finally made the calendar systems clear to me! Fabulous job on this one!

[jaykay]

I got goosebumps by the end of the video :)

[manunair]

You nailed the ending, I got chills when you narrated an empty road...

[robertborgman]

Holy f**k. You made me get goosebumps and cry at the same time.

[MerickBJG]

I was watching Nerd of the Rings and I was like "Damn I really want someone to do this with my favorite series Wheel of time!" So I searched and Huzzah found you, thank you my good man!

[genericallyentertaining]

This is SOOOO good! The way you conclude with Chapter 1 of the Eye of the World gave me goosebumps. A lot of these facts about calendars I had didn't know/had forgotten. Thanks for this awesome work!

[aharris]

I predict that once the show finally launches and new people are introduced to Wheel of Time, your channel is gonna blow up :3

[petrovog]

Oh, that's exactly what I needed! My wife is on Lord of Chaos currently and she always ask me confusing timeline questions. Now I have all answers) Great work (as always)!

I recently re-watched the 1984 animated film "Nausicaä of the valley of the wind" and was struck by how similar it is in its story structure to WOT, they both have a prophecy of someone being born to save the world that was destroyed. Watching the intro to that film; the way it gives the backstory through ancient tapestries, really made me excited to see how they'll go about telling the backstory of the world in WOT for the upcoming tv show.

[rohitk]

This is a really good video, if anyone who wanted to get into WOT books and has some reservations, I will show them this video, you have really hyped me up for the TV show.

[ophela]

This kind of content is what I've been CRAVING recently. Deep dives into WoT lore. Yasss. And, with the TV show soon to release, I expect you'll find your subscriber count jumping up as it continues! :) Very well done, from graphics to content. The music I could live without, but it's not enough of a bother to stop me from watching all your other content! ;P

Peace favor your sword!

[GiSoxfan]

Watching your videos is an experience. It's fun to watch people talk about the wheel of time and engaging with the community is so fun, but when I watch your videos, it's like I'm stepping into the world of the WoT for a few minutes.

Great work!

[Cazsuane]

I wasn't going to watch these because I thought I knew the lore and history. But I'm glad I did check them out - these are great! They're so easy to follow and are a great intro for people new to the books/series. I'm recommending them to friends now who I'm trying to urge into checking out the series. So handy to have these snippets - like an audio companion! They also go to show just how complex, layered, and detailed this world is. Incredible.

[carolbriscoe]

Thanks so much for clarifying the history. It has made reading the books much easier. Hope you continue to do such videos re WOT

[noahmarchais]

As a new reader to this series (on chapter 2) I needed an overview of the setting and this was amazing!!!

[anaiyasgarden]

Wow!!!! Best. Video. Yet! ❤️

That must have been much work. We appreciate it!

[wolfbrother]

Fantastic Video. 10 out 10. Enough spoiler to keep you interested and wanting to read the books but not spoiled. Full of great info. Thank you very much!!
