Yes, it will be exciting. :) I think Noal will die during the rescue, though. Not sure why I think that - just a hunch. :( Perhaps because we know how precarious the trip will be, and it's very unlikely that Thom or Mat will die. Though Mat has to give up his eye, of course. :D
<br><br>You won't find much on Fairheart - the bit that Agelmar volunteered is pretty much all we get about that. One reason I can think of for Farstrider to stay alive would be something to do with Slayer (Isam) but it seems more likely that Lan or Perrin will face Slayer. Luc wants to kill Rand, but I doubt he'll get the chance to fight Rand.

Actually, I was researching something specific. Noal Charin is suspected of being Jain Farstrider. It turns out that a little-recounted fact is that Jain Charin (later called Farstrider) was the man who brought Cowin Gemallan before the King (I am assuming it was the King of Shienar since it was Agelmar who was relating the story and he did not say otherwise) after he betrayed Malkier. I just found that interesting and am expecting great things from him when he, Mat and Thom enter the Tower of Ghenjei.

<div><br></div>I don't think <i>anyone's</i> relationship with the
Encyclopaedia is friendly enough that we could just copy what they have
there, if that's what you're getting at. Though their chapter and
character summaries are very detailed in some ways, there is a lot that
could be added to them... <br><br>I would say that, if we're going to be
doing character and chapter summaries, that we should cover things that
are noticeably absent in their summaries - not that it would be necessary
to avoid duplicating what they have. We just don't want to be
redundant. I would also suggest an external link to their summary at
the bottom of each wiki page, but I haven't yet figured out a way to link
individual pages within the Encyclopaedia - each internal page has the
same url. Perhaps someone with more general computer knowledge could
help with that - and there should be no issue with the Encyclopaedia's
copyright by making external links to their pages. <br><br>

where things happened. There are chapter summaries, and there
are also character summaries - with a character such as Noal who
hasn't done a great deal, it would have been a matter of extreme
simplicity to look at his character summary and see where the

<div>I am doing a personal study of <b>Jain Farstrider</b>, also
known as <b>Jain Charin</b> and considered by some to be <b>Noal
Charin</b>. In <i>Knife of Dreams</i>, Mat and Thom finally
agree to mount a rescue with some third person to free Moiraine from
the Aelfinn. If my memory serves me right, I believe that third
person to be Noal Charin, but I would like to confirm that.
Does anyone know what chapter Mat and Thom have that discussion in?
