Scene 3 - 3,000 Years Ago#

In a modern looking room, Lews Therin and Latra Posae Decume are having a sometimes heated discussion about caging the Dark One. The female Aes Sedai refuse to join the male Aes Sedai in their plan, citing that it's too dangerous because he could corrupt the True Source if he is exposed to it. After Latra leaves, Lews Therin goes over to his crying child to comfort it. The scene ends with a view outside the window, which includes a futuristic city with flying cars.[1]

Scene 8 - Lioness#

Nynaeve tells Lan that after the attack on the Two Rivers, it was Moiraine that she tracked and not him. She tells him that Moiraine has a "tell" and that she's willing to teach him the tell if he brings Rand back. He tells her that "I will hate the man you choose, because he is not me. And I will love him, if he makes you smile. You are as beautiful as the sunrise. You are as fierce as a warrior. You are a lioness, Wisdom."

Scene 12 - Lashes of Air and Fire#

Moiraine and Rand are still walking through the Blight. He asks her if she can teach him to channel, but she says that she can't and that every time he touches the Source, the closer to madness he will get. She says that his adrenaline will cause him to embrace the Source when the time is right. She tells about the problem she had with embracing the Source and how it was solved by a strong, controlled, precise Aes Sedai[3] who came to her room every night and lashed her with Air and Fire until Moiraine embraced the Source to protect herself. She tells Rand that when he channels, he should channel it into the sa'angreal.

Scene 13 - They All Come True#

The four Two Rivers folk and Loial walk into Min's bar. Egwene demands answers, but Min says people's secrets are their own.

The horns of Fal Dara are sounded, along with bells ringing, and everyone gets ready for an attack.

Yakota reports that their men have spotted at least 60 fades, so he estimates that there are between 5,000 and 10,0000 Trollocs, with still more Trollocs coming out of the Blight. He also reports that two ropes were cut on the drawbridge, indicating that Darkfriends are in the city. Agelmar tells everyone that he's moving to the Gap and that they all "know what they need to do." His sister for a second time points out that Gap will not hold against the onslaught.

Agelmar acknowledges that the Gap and Fal Dara will fall and that he should have listened to his sister's advice about alerting the Tower. His only hope is that their messengers will have a chance to send a warning out to everyone before the Gap and Fal Dara fall.

Scene 19 - This Symbol#

Moiraine and Rand have reached the bottom of the Eye. Rand asks what this place used to be, but Moiraine says they don't know because historical records in the White Tower were destroyed by Darkfriends. Rand's memory has pieces of what happened here.

There's a quick shot of Mat entering Tar Valon.

We can see the same happening on the other ships. The channeling generates a tsunami which heads to shore.
