Lews Therin leaving his head would be the death of Lews Therin, not Rand al'Thor. He would have been dead in another minute or two, but when Rand cut him down, he was not. Medically speaking, he was unconscious because of asphyxia-induced hypoxia. The way Rand brought Mat back when he was hung. Or rather unlikely? And if so how would one explain the presence of Lews Therin in the body of Rand? So which of the two in Rand is now the rebirth of the Dragons spirit? Was the spirit then duplicated and we have 2x Lews Therin in a body, the old one and a fresh rewoven one? Simply because through the Taint, the DO killed all Lews had, his family, his persona, his whole world. This would also solve any complications of Min, Elayne and Avhienda since Lews is not the man they loved nor does he love them, he is a spirit of Ages long gone by, destined to save the world yet again.Īlso any conflict between the DO and Lews would be much more of a personal ending conflict then Rand vs the DO. Hence couldn't Rand through dieing, and Lews through then being truely born again into this world fullfill the prophecy? To truely be the rebirth of the Dragon, shouldn't the spirit of Lews Therin be in control of the vassal body? Rand being the normal Aeil of no importance, Lews having died but being the saviour of mankind and the victor over the DO in the Age of Legends. We know as Rand is the Dragon Reborn he is supposedly the rebirth of the Dragon, but could it merely be that two spirits were implanted into the body. Could Lews Therin before the Last Battle or during it achieve complete and permanent control over the body. So I am theorizing could his death be meant in a spiritual way, he was the rebirth of Lews Therin Telamon and now the spirit of the original Dragon is nesting itself into the body of his rebirth.


#RAND AL THOR FULL#
There are many more instances in the book, and with each book the incidents increase where Rand is seemingly no longer in full control of his body. It is also noted by the Aes Sedai reading it that the last line, the signing of the letter seemed to be tortured and forced. Also in KoD he relinquishes control of his body to Lews Therin, so that he can use his "forgotten" weaves to deal with the horde of Trollocs.īut even in more subtle things such as writing the letter to the Salidar Aes Sedai was clearly at the hand of Lews Therin seeing how it was dripping with contempt and ridicule. Also he did unto the Aes Sedai holding him a punishment considered worse then death, something as we know from Rand's treatment of women he would never do. The most extreme example was at the beginning of Dumai's wells, where he angrily mutterred he was the Lord of the Morning and how dare they do this to him. It is even described as Rand having to wrest control of his own body back. In the beginning just a voice, he as of book 6 at times completely takes over Rands body pushing his own spirit aside.

As we see the book progress, Lew Therin inside Rands head is taking a more and more demanding role. I have often wonderred if a physical or spiritual death is meant.
