The wheel continues to turn as forces of Light and Dark come to a head. So far, The Wheel of Time season three is taking fans on a journey to several new locations. This includes Rand’s trek towards the Aiel Waste with Lan, Moiraine, Aviendha, Egwene, and others. The newly-minted Dragon Reborn seeks to raise an army and prove himself to be the Aiel’s Car’a’carn. But just because he’s a powerful man doesn’t mean that he can stroll into Rhuidean and do as he pleases. In our exclusive Wheel of Time clip from episode four, we see Aviendha and Lan spar after she lays down more rules for Rand.
The group is near the city and preparing to rest at a campsite. Aviendha reminds Rand that he is not supposed to touch a sword. Ever the sassy man, he challenges her authority in this space despite knowing nothing of the Aiel ways. She responds to his sassiness by quickly putting him on his back. Lan watches with some level of amusement before Aviendha turns the spear to him and says he will not do it either.
Lan squares off like he wants to square up with her, and she asks him if he wants to dance. And they indeed to a dance that only a warrior and a Warder can do, with Aviendha holding her own against him. Everyone else hoots or curiously watches as the pair fights with flickering flames in the background.
Yes, we know that Lan and Nynaeve are in love and all. But this exclusive scene from The Wheel of Time’s third season gives off an… energy that we aren’t mad about at all. What will happen after this fun spar? We will have to wait and see when episode four hits Prime Video on March 20.
