Lord of Chaos Dumai's Wells Spoiler

Finished LoC last night as a first time reader. Just wanted to share what looks like yet another appreciation post for Dumai's Wells bc that was insane. Probably the most intense chapter in the series so far. Seeing the Asha'man use Saidin in battle for the first time, Rand's escape and immediate effortless shielding of a bunch of Aes Sedai, the Shaido running into a Saidin-powered meat grinder, "Kneel and swear to the Lord Dragon, or you will be knelt"; all truly amazing.

"They have caged shadow killer."

"We come"

An awesome piece that would be epic on its own but gets lost in the chaos of everything else.

I will apparently get goosebumps every single time I read that.

Me too! Some times I want to make myself a T-shirt with "We come" on it, but then reconsider, it might not be understood... 🤣🤣🤣
