    A Wheel Of Time Memorable Moment
    Book 3 The Dragon Reborn: Chapter 24 Scouting and Discoveries.
    Mat comes upon Warders watching over their students sparring with practice swords, and notices a crowd of Aes Sedai and Accepted watching two particular students spar. Mat realizes that the women are watching Gawyn and Galad practice just as the Warder decides to give them a quick break. Gawyn and Galad catch sight of Mat and ask him if he's here to learn the sword. Mat replies that he is not and Gawyn says that everyone could do with knowledge of the sword. Mat says he doesn't need the sword, that he could do fine against both of them with his quarterstaff.
    Mat bets Galad and Gawyn that he could beat them both at the same time with a quarterstaff, and they refuse, thinking they would have an advantage because Mat had been sick. The Warder training them, however, takes interest and orders them to the Yard. Mat selects a staff and says "Luck, time to toss the dice." The Warder seems interested that Mat can speak Old Tongue, and Mat realizes he unknowingly spoke it again. Within minutes of commencing the fight, Mat whacks Gawyn on the head and knocks him into a bleeding heap as Aes Sedai rush to attend him, giving Mat angry stares. Mat notes that Galad is better, almost as good as the Warders, but eventually knocks him to the ground and poses for a killing blow, barely stopping himself when he realized what he had been about to do.
    The Warder then tells them that the greatest Blademaster of all time, Jearom, had been defeated only once, by a farmer with a quarterstaff and that they would do well to remember it. Mat collects his wager from Gawyn and decides to keep the staff. When the Warder asks, Mat first tells him he's from Manetheren, before correcting himself by saying the Two Rivers. He then hobbles back to the Tower.
    This program is read by Audie Award-winning narrator Michael Kramer.

    One of my favorite scenes from all the books! I think it's critical in establishing that the Emond's Fielders, though naive to much of the rest of the world, were brought up of some pretty tough stuff. The core group, (Rand, Mat, Perrin, Egwene, and Nynaeve) consistently show that even in a world filled with Warders, Aes Sedai, Seanchan, and Aiel, they should never be underestimated as a bunch of country bumpkins! Mat soundly defeating both Gawyn AND Galad simultaneously after both had been praised for their swordsmanship helped establish that there was a hell of a lot more than meets the eye to good ol' Mat Cauthon, even without the memories, luck, or dagger!

    Mat saving the Cairheinen from the Shaido and forming the Band of the Red hand is one of my favs. followed closely when he destroys the Seanchan with his new crossbow teams. Leaving the Seanchan scratching their heads as to how a large crossbow army managed to elude them so deep into their territory.
    Or when he takes out the Shara channeler single handedly - almost like it was an inconvenience.
    In fact, if there is an abridged version just following Mat's story arc, that would be glorious.
    My fav of Perrin is when he meets the Seanchan lady to ask for help with the forkroot, followed closely when he makes his hammer, or destroys the shaido with Two Rivers bowman, and a handful of channelers.
    Of Rand when he uses the Dark ones power to thwart Semirhage.
    All among many, many others.

  • @Paladin373

    The blademaster Gaidan comment was probably Jordan referencing the story of Miyamoto Musashi, considered the greatest swordsman in Japanese history. He fought in several major battles and at least 60 recorded duels, including defeating a full grown man when he was just 15, and later killing a master swordsmen with an oar he’d whittled down on the way to the duel because he’d overslept. He was never beaten, but the story goes he was fought to a draw once, by a man with a quarterstaff.

    • @MarginalSC
      @MarginalSC 2 роки тому +5

      Depends on who tells the story. In some, he loses to that quarterstaff in a rematch after the man shortened it so he could use it more quickly.

    • @WalkerRileyMC
      @WalkerRileyMC Рік тому +1

      Though if you read the stories, you find Musashi was kinda a punk about his matches. He considered a match to begin the moment it was agreed upon when most believed it to begin at the agreed place and time. Musashi would employ all sorts of trickery and deceit leading up to the fight, including laying in wait and ambushing his opponent. His favorite trick was to show up hours late to a dual, which was considered a great insult and would result in the opponent getting angrier and angrier and losing focus.

    • @alganhar1
      @alganhar1 11 місяців тому +2

      It is not unique either, in HEMA practices a lone swordsman against a lone spearman (no shields) the spear virtually always wins assuming the opponents are of roughly equal skill. When using a spear without a shield its very similar to using a staff, and you have a lot of advantages. The two major advantages though are reach, and the fact you can use both ends of the weapon, so can redirect very quickly. A parry with one end can flow seamlessly into a strike with the other, and if you can maintain contact with your opponents blade he has very little chance of parrying that blow, he *has* to move to avoid it in some manner.
      There is a reason people used both spear and staff for so long of human history, even when supposedly better weapons were available.

    Matrim was my favorite since book one, but in book three, the most important thing about Mat is how he saw through Lanfear and didn't like her at all. He also was quick to take care of Thom when he needed it and was more than willing to rescue the girls in Tear all alone. He didn't end up doing it alone, but he went thinking he'd have no help. That showed who he was. I think people failed to empathize with Matrim when he had the dagger, because we did not have any POV chapters of him during that time.

We will have to exercise extreme patience with the TV show having to make changes to our beloved storyline…. I just hope they don’t make it into all violence with none of the lovely character stories and development…

      @@MrTuubster You have to know that it’s virtually impossible to make a television series that follows the richness of the story exactly… If they did the story would last 20 years! They absolutely must make some creative changes in order to be able to bring it to us in visual form. I think that Rosamund Pike portrays Moiraine perfectly. And so far, even though I am a diehard Jordan fan, I think the TV adaptation is pretty good.

      @@JoySongDesigns our opinions could not be further apart I think. I understand you want to condense a story. A season per book sure. But 8 episodes is just too short.
      But the character changes? Unforgivable. Abell Cauthon is not a drunk adultering wifebeater. Mat Cauthon is not a thief, corpselooter and pessimistic whining turd who would abandon his friends. Perrin is not fawning over Egwene like a puppy in love. Loial (i love the actors portrayal) looks nothing like in the books. Women who burn out do not literally burn out! They just get cut off from the Source. Thom Merrillins look is also off. He is a bard, not a cowboy. Lan does not cry and wail in public. He does not go sexing first time he gets a chance after Nynaeve because he falls in love with her and Nynaeve does not jump him when she gets a chance because she considers herself a wisdom. Wisdoms do not marry and above all the Two Rivers people are a conserved lot.
      The list goes on. The actors are fine, but it is blatant the writers of the series have not fully read the books nor do they understand them.
      I hate to say there are agenda's at work and I gave the series a chance. But.... there are agenda's and I am appalled by the show and want nothing more to do with it.
      If you like it, enjoy it and more power to you. But I refuse to acknowledge this as my Wheel of Time.

      Two swords vs one staff IS dangerous for the staff wielder if they can get on opposite sides or flank him.

    What hurts the most is that his friends never heard of this. I have read till the 7 th book and this is never mentioned.
    Nyneve, Aviendha, Elayne and Egwene. Completely underestimate him and treat him badly. Elayne is the most hateful of them all. Constantly ignoring his privacy even when he tells her the Fox amulet is his. Especially after he saves their sorry hides. They think they are more powerful because they can channel. But he could have bundled all 3 and taken them to rand whenever he wanted.
    Whereas everyone's praising Galad and Gawyn.
    Mat should have been done better. Rand and Perrin and Lan. They give him the deserved credit.

    • @Drave_Jr.
      @Drave_Jr. 2 роки тому +2

      That’s a major focus of the books. Women have had the political power for a millennia more or less. Even Seanchan, an empire built by a man, has had Empresses so long I don’t think they comprehend a leading Emperor. And some Aes Sedai have been alive for over 300 years, and have been at the Tower for all but at most 18. That’ll mess up your psyche.
      I may have bias, but the conflict of the men seems better to me then the women. Rand has to deal with learning he may destroy the world, while carrying it on his shoulders, while trying to be eliminated by people defending and destroying the world.
      Perrin has to deal with change, something he has problems with. The politics of the world are confusing to him, and he’s been thrust into the middle of it in the later half of the books.
      Mat has to deal with so much craziness it’s ridiculous. However, everything he does ties back to stealing the dagger at Shadar Logoth and his personality, which is the self confident flirt that isn’t actually a jerk.
      They are also all Ta’veren, so that means they have far less free will than others, and they actually warp it as well. That realization hits hard with me.
      Lan has to deal with being the prince of a nation that was destroyed, with survivors wanting him to try and reclaim it, when he was barely born when it fell.
      Nyneave and Moiraine are my favorite females. I sympathize with Nyneave a lot actually, I had anger issues when I was younger, and have been trying to look after my brothers. Moiraine is helped by A New Spring, and she’s competent within reason and the only weird thing is randomly getting Balefire in the second book.
      Egwene and Elayne are usually reacting to what going on after their arrival at Salidar.
      Egwene becomes Armyrlin of the rebels and the big move the Tower Sitters do anything is after Elaida is captured. Egwene did influence it, but their enemies caused the problems. Elayne has to fix what her mind controlled mother did.
      I guess I’ve figured out how I like the main characters, it’s based on how conflict deals with them emotionally. Min gets to have this because she loves Rand, and stays with him throughout, even after things show that she probably shouldn’t. Aviendha and the Aiel are confusing, but not enough so that we don’t understand Aviendha’s struggles, and her relationship with Rand is complicated and needs to be figured out.

The Wheel of Time Series presents Matt's father as a lecher, incapable of being the person Matt just described in this reading, let a lone being a good horse trader that Matt had learned from in his own experiences for good horse sense in choosing good winners later on in the story. Hopefully that all doesn't get changed too.
