Thanks Nae'Blis for collaborating with me. This was so much fun! Be sure to watch this in 4K for the best quality!
Great animation and collaboration, it was great fun to see a story unfold in front of my eyes that i've read and listened to countless times!
@@Richard-fx6go Glad you liked it!
Great work as always!
Amazing job!! You two would make the most life changing video on The Last Battle ever and Dumai's Wells
@@UnravelingthePattern This is well done. Bravo 👍🏽👍🏽
I think a complimentary video for this video and any other like it would work well. The complimentary video would be capture/s of real time battle sequence gameplay with players reenacting the battle using for example the Total War series. Someone with the resources to do so could even make a likeness of the map of Emonds Field or Caemlyn or Tar Valon as the battle map and the combatants that fight there with the proper modding tools.
This was AMAZING! Such quality work and it was so cool seeing the battle broken down visually.
It was one of the most epic moments in the series for me when Watch Hill and Devon Ride came to the aid of Emond's Field.
Tai'shar Manetheren!
I was crying when I reading this in books ...
I am 34 years old and I am definitely NOT crying now after watching this video. Scene when Perin is writing Faile letter and when she is apologising to him for coming back
When women are cutting their food because men need to eat because they are doing the fighting ...
For the red eagle
Very well done. Do Dumai’s Wells this way next.
Just every scene possible... I just want more of this😂 But Dumai's Wells just has to be the next one :)
1) Dumai’s Wells
2) Falme
3) Shadar Logoth @ end of WH
4) Cairhien @ end of FoH
5) The Last Battle - this is only last because of how difficult it will be to translate
Dumai`s wells FTW
Yeah thanks. That's as far a I have read right now. But I'll follow your work.
Awesome video!
One of the first bits of the series that became a favorite of mine is early on in Eye of the World when Moraine dramatically tells a tale to the people of Emond's Field of the ride of the army Manetheran . The Emond's Fielders learn a bit of their history and culture through the story of Aemond's ride and the battle that took place at Aemond's Field.
This sounds amazing! Sign me up!
I love the name of the Manatherendrelle, "waters of the mountain home". Moiraine's speech was so good!
Holy cow the level of quality here is unmatched. Your commentary and maps were excellent and Lauren's vfx looked epic. Instead of suggesting the obvious battle that everyone is going to recommend, please please do a break down of the Battle of Cairhien in book 5.
Seriously though back to this video: Perrin's story arc in the Two Rivers in book 4 is hands down my favorite story arc in the series. I cry every time I read Perrin's speech at the al'Seen farm and about the women charging in to hold the line during the battle. This video got me caught back up in those emotions. So thank you.
Same for me!!! As soon as we saw the Falcon coming bk from the north, some sand irritated my eyes, and all the emotions from the book stuck in my troat! No matter how many times I read TSR (n it's been over 15 times for sure by now!), I have to stop reading again n again, not seeing the words on the page! It's even getting worse as now I anticipate the emotion n it seems to start earlier every reading!
Well, the visual of this vid makes it even more vivid!!! Great work both of you!
Oh and on top of Carhien, I'd like to see Rand's attack of the Seanchan, especially with how Weiramon blunders (or not... lol)
Same here man
I love this battle because Mat
@@MrNodwell which?
@@justingaines4441 isn't the Battle outside Carhien the one where Mat basically forms the band after meeting Talmanes?
Next Battle: Dumai's Wells. Oh the audiobook and painting *chills* "Asha'man! KILL!"
Just reading that phrase gives me chills every time. What worldbuilding and foreshadowing, to be able to signal a whole new era of warfare in two words.
I'd like to see anything that Isn't Dumai's Wells its the most known about battle.
Siege of Cairhien would be fantastic the scale and multiple simultaneous events of the battle at the walls and the battles on the outskirts with Mat would be great to see.
I second that !
Yup!
Definitely!!!
I agree, a lot happens in the Siege of Cairhien and it would be interesting to see treated like this.
I really want to see a break down of the Cleansing of Saidin. Huge forces of channelers from both sides all converging on this one point where the greatest movement with the One Power of all time is going on. A huge battle of channelers and Forsaken all around this one event. It's one of my favourite chapters in the series. Falme and the Last Battle would be amazing too.
All of them. Every single battle. That was awesome!
Anything with Rodel Ituralde would be very interesting.
His defence of the Saldean city (name escapes me), or the battle in Thakandar would be great.
@@Blind_Smithy maradon
100% agreed
Its obvious that Jordan knew tactics. Many of these battles flow and move naturally just like combat in our history. He is still one of the best in this area.
Early on in the books Perrin was my favorite, this battle being the peak of awesome for me!
I'm a bit sad Jordan didn't continue a storyline where Perrin could have reforged Manetheren, to me it seems like such a natural fit! (especially since Perrin ended not doing much for a couple of books anyways)
This is a great video! The battle for Cairhien between Rand and the Shaido would be great done like this.
I'm a computer science y13 A-level student, and for my coursework, I've decided to make a WoT themed tower defense game based on this scene. I'm trying to make the game as enjoyable to us fans of the series but I'm not an amazing programmer and I'm new to unity lmao, I tried pygame but it wasn't rly right. Anyway thank you Nae'Blis this video came at the perfect time and has rly helped me grasp the full scene :)
That sounds awesome! Let us know when it's ready to playtest 😁. I've actually dabbled in Unity quite a bit myself but I'm a terrible programmer. I started developing my own VR game prototype using something called playmaker!
Tam Al'Thor and Abel Cauthon went to Tar Valon to see if they could find word of what happened to everybody. When they returned without answers, they found things had changed, they'd been labeled Darkfriends by the Children of Light and so stayed in hiding. It's literally a single throwaway line in the Shadow Rising, and I'd have forgotten it completely had I not read it the other day. Extremely minor point in an excellent video. Thank you for taking the time to make these.
Are you going to get to the 200 page chapter of the last Battle eventually? The Battle of the 2 rivers is the best Perin story Arc IMO, Until A Memory Of Light. Perin always tries to remain humble but his goodness shines through. Regardless of Tavirin influence he would be a leader of men!!!
That’s the plan
I really liked the GIF of the red solo cup being crashed 😂.
Very well done.
_All up and down the line, as far as Perrin could see, the women were there. Their numbers were the only reason the line still held, almost driven back against the houses. Women among the men, shoulder to shoulder; some no more than girls_
Malden next, _please._
This was awesome!!! Gotta see the Battle of Dumais Wells!!
Still gives me chills & tears to the eyes, even though I’ve read/listened to the series over 30x. That’s how great a writer RJ was ❤️
Love this video! Chills!
Love the colorful dots for the Tinkers
This is so cool! My bf told me about this but I had JUST started a reread of TSR and wanted to wait until I got to this scene to watch! So helpful! Just one little nitpick- at 4:35, you say that Mat and Rand were told by the Finns to go to Rhuidean..." but Rand clearly states to Mat while they are standing and looking at the fog surrounding the city that the Finns never mentioned Rhuidean to him at all. The Shadow Rising, Chapter 24 "Rhuidean".... "Rand, maybe that's the answer they give everybody. Those snake people, I mean. Go to Rhuidean. Maybe we don't have to be here at all." He did not believe it, but with that fog staring him in the face...Rand turned his head to look at him, not speaking. Finally he said, "They never mentioned Rhuidean to me, Mat.""Oh, burn me," he muttered..." So it truly is a very small nitpick! Thank you both for working so hard to making this amazingly awesome vid! Will be subbing to Unraveling the Pattern as well! Can't wait for Dumai's Wells and TLB!
SO cool PLEASE PLEASE do the battle of Maradon from Towers of Midnight
One of my favourite battles in the books. However, Dumai's Wells battle is by far the best IMO, so much happens.
This was probably my favorite arc in whole series but it’s been so long since I read it. Probably 20 years. Thanks for the great breakdown.
Damn! That was AWESOME!! I’m blown away. Now I can’t wait to to see it on TV!!
I know this is from last year but just found you through The Dusty Wheel's after-show. I loved this video. I have so much catching up to do. I have read the books but it's been a minute so I am thinking of starting over. I am visually impaired so I do read audio versions. I'm loving the show so far. I'm no longer sad that I don't have cable tv anymore.
That bedroom talk is spot on. Except Perrin, I think an angry face would be better. Totally pisses him off lol
Do the trolloc invasion of Maradon. Ituralde was definitely fulfilling his role as one of the Great Generals in that one.
I'm both a visual learner, and a map person, so I really loved this format and would definitely watch more of these.
As much as I love the other battles in the series, this is hands down my favorite. I bawl when Perrin learns of his family, I cheer when the women join the line. This whole arc is magnificient.
Excellent video. I could watch this sort of thing for literally every battle in the books.
Jeez. It's been over ten years since I binge read the entire Wheel of Time series. This takes me back, and it was really well done!
Such a great job, this is top tier content and would love to see the Second Battle of Cairhien done with all of Mat’s glory on display.
This is my vote too. I listen to that part of the book all the time.
Man this was soooo cool! You guys done an amazing job. Thanks :)
LOVE THIS!!! Great job both of you!!!
Please keep these coming!
ALL THE BATTLES!!!
I love this. I just recently finished a reread (relisten, actually) of TSR and the Battle of the Two Rivers is my favorite part of the second half of the book. I can't wait to see this unfortunately on screen. I'm fact the battle along with the Finn doors, the Aiel history, and Elayne getting drunk are the reason why TSR is in the top of my favorite books.
There are a lot of emotional scenes such as Perrin finding out about his family and the Tinker's sword that get my eyes watering everytime.
Dear sweet Elayne, I loved that part too.
Most definitely my favorite scene from the entire series. I loved it so much and I really appreciate this video. At the beginning of the series I set myself as Perrin and I felt so immersed in this scene, never read anything better. I remember it was very upsetting whenever the POV changed 😂
Outstanding work mate. You have to do all of the battles. I’ve been waiting years for content online this good.
Great visualization, thanks for all the hard work!
Great video! I just finished the series and am enjoying your content!
Awesome video! I listened to the audiobooks and had a hard time understanding alot of the tactics/ strategies emplyoyed in the battles so this was sick!! Thanks heaps
The battle that Mat orchestrated with the Death Watch Guard to protect Tuan would be great! "Looose..."
Dumai's Wells and the cleansing of Saidin are also a must!
Brilliant work fellas 👏🤟
So many scenes to choose from, I'll watch whatever you guys put out anyway.
There are other larger, more epic, battles in "The Wheel of Time" series, but the Battle of Emond's Field has always been far and away my favorite battle in the series. I put it up there right next to both the book and film versions of the Battle of Helm's Deep and the Battle of Yavin IV for greatest battles in fiction. It is a large factor in why *The Shadow Rising* is my favorite book in the series.
Loved it. Mapping and other graphics. Awesome.
This was a very nice video, Thank you Nae'Blis and Unraveling the Pattern for making this video.
Such a high quality video, amazing job! Would love to see more.
Awesome! 8 havent read this segment 9f the Wheel in ages! Perfection.
Do all the battles!!!
This was such a great break down!!! Really aweesome.
Brilliant video. The visuals are exceptional and really help to give a grasp of events and the scale of the map. Really, really good
this was a great break down, and explanation, and though I have read the series many times, it still gave me chills thinking about the battle again. thanks, and keep up the great work.
This is the quality content im talking about. Also i like your companion videos it encouraged me to start another read through.
This is a brilliant video. If you could please do all the major battles. This is really quality work loved every minute of it
I wouldn't mind seeing the cleansing! You guy did an awesome job cant wait to see more
Great guys. Absolutely awesome video, I hope you will continue to collaborate on more videos. You are honoring Ranland.
This is well done. Excellent animation and clear concise commentary. I learnt things I didn't get before.
Anyone else watching this for a second time just because it's so freaking great?
Great video one of my favorite battles in the series.
That was well done. I've reread WOT so many times and am thinking of going the audio book route this time. I'm looking forward to seeing more of these battle vid. Great work guys keep it up.
Nice! I'd love to see Rand's Battle with Couladin against the walls of Cairhein. And Mat's campaign against the Seanchan when the band was protecting Tuon.
This is one of my favorite scenes in the entire series. Great job with this!
Would like to see more of these. It's your second most popular video as you know. Well done and the animations are really helpful.
I love you both, all your stuff is so well thought out and a lot of hard work goes into them. Lauren you are so talented and such a valuable content creator xxx
XoXo 😘
Great work. Look forward to more of them!
Wow this is super exciting. Naeblis with the top tier content again yes! (Just finished AMoL, been binging your vids haha..)
Awesome job! Waiting for the next episode!
Soo good! I love this battle and watching it made me tear up again!
Nae'Blis you and Lauren killed this. What an awesome video. Great work!
This is so amaizingly detailed! I had chills and tears in my eyes!
Good stuff! I've already been thru the series a couple times, but I'm a lot more visual than I am textual, and this broke things down really well. And the quality of the graphics is outstanding. Subscribing.
Awesome content guys! I enjoyed this immensely!
Thank you so much for this video. As I was watching it, I was able to feel the same feeling i had when reading the book.
Wow this was fantastic, you both did a great job! I would love to see a version detailing some of Mat's battles and tactics. I had been thinking his diversion of the Seachan army out of the Aldavene Gap to escape Altara, his harassing tactics as well as his expert troop deployments would make for a great animation.
I have read that battle a dozen times. Your description and illustration was amazing. I loved it. It was like hearing someone describe a battle from the civil war. Thank you for contributing to my passion.
This was amazing! Please do more content like this :)
Thank you that was great! Well done can’t wait for the next one 👍
Best battle and maybe my favorite passages in the series. Absolute peak perrin. Thank you and great job.
That was awesome 👏 hope there’s more to come
SO WELL DONE!!! Thoroughly enjoyed it all. The battle breakdown is great, and the little details like Loial carrying Gaul, and the wedding celebration audio were adorable touches.
I'm really liking this new breakdown format. Looking forward to what comes next!
Just subbed to Unraveling the Pattern.
Thank you! ❤
I'm read going through all the books I saw this is really awesome to see him you know a visual representation of what I've always depicted in my brain thank you very much
Such an awesome video. Well done to all involved.
Guys, this is AMAZING content! Thank you so much. Please keep doing these! Dumai's Wells!! 🙏
Keep this up This wasfantastic & the first time I saw this......Thank you both
Great work, I love Lauren and you nibbles, damn autocorrect Nae’blis. Can’t wait for more. Thank you
Light! What a great video. I’ve read the series so many times that I felt like I was just speed reading the actual book. The animations worked so well with the storytelling. I can honestly see all of the images I play in my mind as I read but you’ve both helped to expand my minds eye a bit with the aerial view. I feel like a Great Captain with a sky window spy window gateway.
I hope you do more of these!
Really great, this would be ace for your chapter walkthroughs
Love it! Lauren's animations really brought this to life.
This was awesome! Can’t wait to see more!
Great job!! Lead up to the last battle. Love to see the pushing back of the seanchan by rand!
What an awesome video! Great work!
This is so awesome I i’ve been reading this series for 20 years I’ve started reading again just before all of this spectacular idea of making this a movie, this should’ve been done years ago. I am so pumped up about this
Thanks so much for making this! Probably one of the best WOT videos I've seen. And that's some pretty stiff competition.
That was awesome. Please, make more!
Break down all the battles! Great video.
That really was great!!! I watch Baz Battles, History Civilis and such and more I thought you did a great job with the battlefields and clarity of the actors involved.
Please do a whole bunch more!!! Any battle but also the more confusing or cluttered scenes.
Do more!!!! Do more!!!!!
This battle was my favorite from all the books I've read. It had so many layers (blood of manetherin) and allusions (300 trojans) which made it a very enjoyable and emotional read
This was fantastic! Excellent work. Can’t wait to see more. Battle at the siege of Cairhien would be awesome as well as battle during the cleansing of Saidin, and the smaller battles of the last battle (retreat from Shienar, battle of maradon, battle of caemlyn, etc.). This battle happening at the same time as the events in the Aiel waste and the events down in Tanchico are probably the reason why The Shadow Rising is one of the most popular books in the series. It was fantastic.
I am doing a reread and I cried so much during this part. I am glad I found this channel.
Excellent summary of Perrin's whole arc in TSR! So colourful and clear! :D
