Prologue What the Storm Means

定场诗
"Ravens and crows. Rats. Mists and clouds. Insects and corrupt-
tion. Strange events and odd occurrences. The ordinary twisted
and strange. Wonders!

The dead are beginning to walk, and some see them. Others do
not, but more and more, we all fear the night.

These have been our days. They rain upon us beneath a dead sky,
crushing us with their fury, until as one we beg: "Let it begin!"

—Journal of the Unknown Scholar,         
entry for The Feast of Freia, 1000 NE"
Renald Fanwar的POV
出场人物：
Renald Fanwar——边境农民，不知道是边境哪一国。
Auaine Fanwar——Renald之妻
Thulin——铁匠，看到乌云知道Tarmon Gai'don来临，向北而去。
Gallanha——Thulin之妻
Mirala——Thulin之女
Merk, Favidan, Rinnin, Veshir, Adamad 和Geleni——Renald Fanwar的学徒。

地名：
Oak Water——Thulin的住处
At the black and silver clouds.
Tarmon Gar'don来临的征兆。果然不是“嘭”地一声就开始的。
“There will be an army gathering, I figure. They’ll need smiths.”
这是传出来的消息呢，还是边境人的本能呢。
And that storm means the end is coming, Renald.
这也是常识？
总之大家都去北方战斗吧。
Falendre的POV：
出场人物：
Falendre——跟随Semirhage一起被俘的sul'dam
Nenci和Tabi——Damane
Surya，Malian，Ciar和Talha——Sul'dam
Nynaeve
Cadsuane
Merise Haindehl——绿宗，Jahar Narishma的沙袋
Logain
Rand
“The road to Ebou Dar lies about an hour east of here. You can reach the city by nightfall if you press. 
其实Rand也是来了Ebou Dar好多次。
Tylee Khirgan的POV：
出场人物：
Tylee Khirgan——霄晨军官
Bakayar Mishima——Tylee手下军官
Karm——Tylee的司务长
提到：
Luthair Paendrag Mondwin——政府霄晨的鹰翼之子
地名：
Maram Kashor——霄晨地名
Halamak——霄晨地名
Sweet for the sheer genius of it. Bitter for the worry that one day, they would face each other on the battlefield.
我还是不觉得Perrin有多厉害啊，哼唧了两个月，还奉送给敌人强力的武器。
随便好啦。
“He is a good soldier. Perhaps too focused, too driven.
这倒是的。
She froze. Mishima had an arrow through his neck, a wicked, barbed thing.
被兽人攻击，上卷还挺活跃的Mishima一下就死掉了。
How had this happened? How had these things gotten so close to Ebou Dar! They were well inside the Seanchan defensive perimeter, only a day’s march from the capital.
现在知道不是迷信传说了吧。
出场人物：
Graendal
Thurasa——Council of Merchants的成员，现在是Graendal的女奴隶
Demandred
Mesaana
Moridin
提到：
Semirhage——被俘
Moghedien
Cyndane——这两个负责组织黑暗之友杀死Perrin和Mat，也不太成功。
Moridin certainly was lacking in imagination lately. Everything of black and red, and all focused on killing those fool boys from the village of Rand al’Thor.
Moridin在烂地北部的要塞。仍然是红色黑色，Rand也很喜欢这两种颜色。
Mesaana was fully dedicated to the Great Lord now, just like the rest of them, but she seemed a second-rate member of the Chosen.
因为她之前没有参加清洁Saidin的战斗。
You need to help us free her.”
Messana和Semirhage是盟友。
“She didn’t intend to,” Mesaana said hastily. “Our woman there thinks that the bolt of Fire was a reaction of surprise, not an intention to kill.”
Elza?
Failed spectacularly, leaving him wounded despite my express command that he wasn’t to be harmed!
Moridin真是心疼Rand啊，他俩到底是什么关系？
Moridin looked down, flexing his left hand, as if it were stiff.
Rand失去左手，他也有感觉？
“My rule is secure,” Demandred said simply. “I gather for war. We will be ready.”
他是谁？在哪里？
Strangely, he looked a great deal like al’Thor—of whom she had numerous sketches via her spies—when he stood like that.
这样吗，预言里的一活一死，指的是Moridin和Rand？AMOL已经到手了，我还在乱猜。
Rodel Ituralde的POV
出场人物：
Rodel Ituralde
Lidrin——小狼手下军官
提到
Jaalam Nishur——之前陪着Rodel Ituralde的军官，已战死。
地名：
Darluna——Arad Doman北部城市
He shouldn’t be surprised, then, to see a grand army like this one—a hundred and fifty thousand strong at least—come to quench that fire.
霄晨追击小狼的兵力，十五万。
When you had access to a tool so useful, you tended to rely upon it. And reliance like that could be exploited.
利用霄晨对raken的依赖，制订的计策。
出场人物：
Masema Dagar
Faile

提到：
Aram
Perrin
The Dragon had appeared to him the night before the attack. Appeared in glory!
这是疯子的幻想，还是弃光魔的诡计？
The Prophet counted them off. Fewer than a hundred. 
就剩下几十个人了。
Masema. That had been his name. He’d earned his sword on his fifteenth birthday. His father had been so proud.
Masema是个很讨厌的角色，可是看到这里我还是为他难过，如果他不遇见Rand...
另外，那个女人要不要把每一件事，不管错误和正确都做出猥琐的色彩？她为什么不去死！
