The Miner's Rest is the Inn in Baerlon where Min worked in the books. She mentions it once or twice in the books. It is not where she was working when we meet her it was a previous job I think.

I actually think both are incorrect. **SPOILERS** You wont find it in the books either. The Inn she works at is when we meet her is called called the deer and lion; lion and stag or something. "The miner's rest" is not a real place but a metaphor for her. Raised by her single father a mine/metal worker and smithy, with whom she was close and similar in temperament; ie not a "proper lady." She and where she went to ride horses and simple metal crafting and the roots to her prolific knife affinity. When he died in a mining accident i.e. the name miners rest. She then grew up with her aunts who tried to make her into a "proper lady" before she ran away sometime between like 9 and 12 when her abilities started and spent several years independently making a life for herself until she drew the attention of the white tower who thought it was a wilder thing. That's a long way of saying the name Minor's Rest is where he hatred of dresses as an idea and literally began. Dresses incumber her combat and riding and ability to go unnoticed; you can't hide knives in skirts she says at some point. So weakness/helplessness and symbols 'being a proper lady." She wears a dress twice; once at the white tower, using her feminine Elmindrida name pretending to be a traveling women visiting the Tower for healing. The second time is against her well in Falme and a much more awful helplessness that kind of brings both her childhood and identity full circle in a way that helps her grow up very fast. She then is able to love the only other man in her life she has, and will ever love grow to love/trust since her father. the above is fun fellow nerds. TL/DR: Min was "dressed" in her identity by her father the minor's rest in death. Beautifully sad bit of text. That is the reason she is an essential piece of the Rand's connection to humanity.

@@zmccon "In Baerlon, after her father died, her aunts had tried to make her into what they called a decent proper woman, though maybe her Aunt Miren had understood that after ten years running about the mines in boys’ clothes, it might be too late to stuff her into dresses. They had tried, even so, and she had fought them as stubbornly as she refused to learn to wield a needle. Aside from that unfortunate episode serving tables at The Miners’ Rest-a rough place, but she had not stayed long; Rana, Jan and Miren had seen to that emphatically when they found out, and no matter that she was twenty then-aside from that one time, she had never worn a dress willingly."

Heron marked blade theory: Someone tells Rand in the show that the heron mark is not common, so he takes it off the handle to hide. When he’s going to face the Seanchan he doesn’t have / doesn’t want to hide anymore, so he added it back, to “show off” in a way.

Interesting that Selene will be an innkeeper in Cairhein, i wonder if it's her inn that Rand is burning down in the trailer, or maybe he needs to find a new place to crash after the burning and that's how he runs into her.

@UnravelingthePattern It did bother me a bit that show spent an entire episode flushing out warders, who do play an important role, instead of putting more time into the EF5. I'm not giving up on the show, but it did curb my enthusiasm a bit. I'm sure the original script (before Barney left), non Covid restrictions, and more money/episodes alloted from Amazon would have made season 1 better. Just curious on your thoughts... Why didn't they just remove the dagger shot from the end? Like just have Fain stand up and walk away from Loial. It would have removed some plot holes right?

I have fallen deeply in love with this show quite possibly like no other I have watched in my life. I'm a very eclectic person myself so it's been unreal. I have been able to research terms, Watched the Origin Stories and have learned as much as possible without ruining anything possibly too big for myself. I also assumed of course that no matter what the books say or do the Show could be completely different. It was fun learning some about the Aiel people, The terms for men & women's weaves, the different properties they can contain. The term for cutting off that power for each and when it was just one word used for both. Commiting to memory the different Ajah colors and what they represent, The 3 promises. I'm very happy with what I have been able to learn without giving myself too much because I want to know it all but I want the Show first, then I will read the books. Listening to the sneak peek of the Chosen/Forsaken etc scene added at the end of season 1 a couple weeks ago after watching it 5 times (I have watched season 1, 12 times now and I just can't get enough. I notice something different and new every time because there's so much detail. It's amazing). I'm probably shooting completely in the dark but the woman with the Aes Sedai ring almost sounded like Suanne to me. Then it clicked how much of a betrayal that would be if it was being the Amyrlin Seat, especially to Moiraine and although I understand why she would have been fully aware of Moiraine's intentions traveling yet had to humiliate her in the White Tower because of the politics, dark friends etc that Moiraine warns Nynaeve about but it would also be a good reason for her use Moiraine in keeping it quiet from everyone period. That would be a huge betrayal. I don't know. I'm also thinking it's not possible because of the promises but Moiraine made it clear to listen carefully because what you hear is not necessarily that blunted or what you may take from it. Frankly it's a feat just to remember the spelling of things, let alone so much else and it blows my mind I only know a fraction of it all still. Wonderful Wonderful show. Let's go Season 2!!!! So much I can't wait to find out. 🤍❤💙💚💛🤎🖤🤍

Oh no really they have Selene as an innkeeper. I am sorry if they did not want to do the shadow world (people that read the books will know what I am meaning) they should still had like Selene been attacked by be it man or beast. Would still felt like the books even though not been books. Or maybe Selene was at a work sight of a big statue again if you know you know. Something from the books and could play an important part so showing in the show would had been the prefect time. Even having her maybe leading/telling Rand to where he checks in. They could had it like the first members for the other tower and that why the Amyrlin Seat and Logain are where they are. To see these people (I am guessing males and could have some females that gone crazy with power).

I just had a thought, what if the scene in the trailer where Rand is channeling and Selene is behind him is him looking at the statue? It's in Cairhien after all.

Min's hair is not exactly shaved on the sides in season 2 pics, it is just buzzed very close to the skin. When you look at her hair in Season 1 ep 7 at time stamp 51:17 the sides are very much shorter than the rest of her hair there as well. I don't think she will be connected to the Seanchan in this season. I think we are going down a wrong path with this supposition.

I can't say I have faith in that yet, there were at least a couple really serious missteps in season one. Like really serious ones. But I am cautiously optimistic! It does look good.

I agree she's different from the books, but don't forget there's such a thing as character growth. I'd be pretty jaded if I had to see people's deaths and violence all of the time too.
