How the Men Broke the World - Wheel of Time Lore DOCUMENTARY

Wizards and Warriors new animated fantasy documentary lore video will talk about the world of Wheel of Time created by the late Robert Jordan in a series concluded by Brandon Sanderson. In the first episode we will talk about the Second Age, the age of Legends, when the humanity reached the peak of its potential through the One Power of the Creator under the leadership of the Aes Sedai, and how the hubris and greed of some allowed the Dark One - Shai'tan to enter the world to corrupt it, leading to the War of Power. The Light is led by Lews Therin Telamon, the "Dragon" and his attack on the Dark One leads to the Breaking of the World.

[@ninjabreadman1993r]

Great video, and it helps make something that was explained a little convolutedly in the books a lot easier to understand! You did get a few things slightly wrong, though, as far as I can recall. 1) Lanfear was never Lews Therin's mistress. They were lovers as students, but Lews Therin left her when he realised she loved the prestige of being his lover more than she loved *him.* She made several attempts to win him back, but he always refused her, as far as we know. "Mistress" implies he was cheating on his wife, which isn't the case. 2) The Sharom's original purpose was known; as far as I can remember, it was a building created by the Aes Sedai, and used as a laboratory to run experiments. It was - to quote The Shadow Rising - a "celebration of the triumph of their art." 3) The experiment wasn't a failure. It was a resounding success; they were attempting to reach the source of The True Power by boring a hole in the Pattern, because The True Power seemed to lie outside it. Shai'Tan - The Dark One - *was* the source of The True Power, and by boring a hole to its source, they bore a hole into his prison. It backfired horribly, but the experiment *was* a success. Unfortunately. The explosion was caused by the bore, not the other way around; the Bore *was* the intention, they just didn't realise they had found The Dark One's prison. 4) Balefire was initially used extensively in the war of power, but both sides quickly stopped using it when they realised that it was damaging the fabric of reality; the effects were so dangerous that even The Forsaken and the Dreadlords stopped using it, an order that was eventually rescinded during Tarmon Gaiden. But those are nitpicks. The video is well streamlined and easily understood, so kudos on making a complicated piece of lore easily understood! :D

[@Alejojojo6]

1) He said that in the video, Mistress, lover whatever (you are being picky), it's later said that she went to the dark one after he left her and became Lanfear because Lewis married... if he was unmarried it meant he wasnt having an affair with Lanfear. 2)The Sharom was aglobe that appeared that they studied but didnt truly know its nature and when they broke it they released the dark one. 3)The experiment was a failure because with it they released the Dark One... so in reality it was the cause of all the pain that came later, and thus a massive failure for humanity. 4)Its Tarmon Gai'don, and they still used belfire but with care. Still it's correct to say it was a reseach/invention of the age of legend which he said. You just added extra info.

[@ninjabreadman1993r]

@@Alejojojo6 I admitted in my comment that I was being a little picky. ^_^ 1) This was picky, I acknowledged that. The fact remains that you don't call somebody's girlfriend a "mistress." Your Mistress is your Affair Partner. Since the purpose of this video is to be concise and clear, using the wrong term muddies the water. 2) I don't think you're right. To the best of my recollection, and from what I can tell double checking myself on the various Wikis, the Sharom was implied to have been built by the Aes Sedai. The breaking of the globe was not what released Shai'Tan; the bore was created inside the globe, and it was the opening of the bore that broke the Sharom, not the other way around. It went Research --> Bore --> Breaking Of Sharom, not Breaking --> Bore. 3) The results of the experiment were awful, yes. But in the strictest technical sense, the experiment was a success. What was the goal? To create a hole in the Pattern to access the location of The True Source. What happened? They created a hole in the pattern that accessed the location of The True Source. It may be splitting hairs a little, but an experiment can have a bad result and be a mistake on the macro level, but still be successful in its initial goals. EG, Jurassic Park; they wanted to bring dinosaurs back. They succeeded. Was it ultimately proven to be a bad idea? Yes. Doesn't mean the initial experiment's goals were not met. 4) The correction was that it was stated that they used it for the majority of the war, which wasn't quite true. They used it for about half the war, then both sides kind of agreed to not use it any more; it's stated in the books that neither side used it in the late stages *at all,* and besides individual uses in small duels during the book series, balefire wasn't used en masse by the Shadow's Forces until the restriction was lifted and the order given in The Final Battle. But yeah, this point was just adding a little extra info. I'm not sure what your point is, though. xD

[@methany8788]

There are some other minor mistakes, such as Lew's Therin's wife being called Aes Sedai (iirc she couldn't channel - EDIT: I WAS MISTAKEN, SHE WAS PROBABLY AES SEDAI) and Shayol Ghul not being the site of the (not) "failed" experiment. The former was actually a holiday resort and the latter was located in a big city. Still, I'm glad this series is being covered, and mistakes are unavoidable in this big an undertaking. Edit: Watching further, the classic balefire mistake is also made. It doesn't entirely burn someone out of the pattern, even though that's stated at least once in the series (unreliable narrator). I also had to be set straight about that at some point. Quote from a RJ interview (edit: it's actually a quote from a fan signing) in 1998: "If someone is balefired, the Dark One can't reincarnate them. But they CAN be spun back out into the Wheel as normal. Balefire is NOT the eternal death of the soul." (copied from Theoryland, though multiple sites have the quote)

[@ninjabreadman1993r]

@@methany8788 -- Ilyena: It doesn't say. As far as I remember, we don't know one way or the other whether she was a Channeller or not, they never specify to my knowledge. -- Travel Inn Shayol Ghul: Ah, good catch! There was something niggling at me, but I couldn't figure out what it was! Yeah, Shayol Ghul is simply where the touch was greatest, not where the experiment took place. Two different places. -- Balefire: Truuuue, it only burns you out of the pattern back a certain way. Not destroying the soul, just erasing your actions in the past depending on the strength of the balefire used, which is why it damages the pattern; unweaving certain threads and all the consequences therein. Though that *is* a second hand source (it's a signing report, not an official interview) so some caution in using it as a source should be taken.

[@methany8788]

@ninjabreadman1993r good point about the source on Balefire, though I do lean towards believing that one. Just did some more digging on Ilyena, and you're right. No idea how that popped into my head. If anything, there is evidence that she WAS Aes Sedai (from another signing). Edit: actually, there is "official" confirmation on Balefire. Both the Companion entry on it and a Sanderson quote apparently back it up

The Wheel of Time is both an epic scale writing endeavor and a heartbreaking read if you are cognizant of what the author was going through as it was being written.

Sanderson wasn't brought on as far as I know. He was hand picked to finish the series but wasn't a part of a collaborative effort or anything like that. He had extensive notes and continuity maps to work with, but didn't contribute anything original prior to penning the last 3 books as outlined. And fwiw he was the right guy to wrap it all up.

[@undertone8367]

This is what the TV show missed, the fact that Lews Therin had no choice but to try and seal the dark one. He wasn't just some arrogant dick who doomed civilization because he was a man.

[@CulinVlau]

The show missed a lot because of their fear of offending modern sensibilities.

[@xKinjax]

To be fair this is the implication in the early books as well simply because the Aes Sedai perpetuated the lie that men doomed the world. I don't remember if it's implied that the Black Adjah was responsible for this or not but they certainly embraced the lie as an organization.

[@marcbartuschka6372]

@@xKinjax Well when the male Aes Sedai caused so much havoc, and with the centuries of hunting down men who go insane or proclaim (falsly) to be the Dragon Reborn, it is not THAT hard to understand that this clouded the way the distant past was retold by the female Aes Seadi. We speak about a time thousands of years ago, so it is only natural that all the years since thaz did not go without having a profound influence. So I think it was in part calculation to distant themself from those who almost brought humanity down, grief of the suffering and the slowy changing of the way they saw the male user of the one power, that created the way the Aes Sedai saw things.

[@xKinjax]

@@marcbartuschka6372 But the female Aes Sedai are as much at fault for the world breaking as the males. Lanfear and all the other female Forsaken were Aes Sedai too. In fact the world might not have broken at all if they had helped Lews Therin when he asked them. Even more damning is that it feels like they never made any effort to try to cleanse the male half of the Source. It's not like male channelers instantly go insane when they try to channel, some are normal for many years yet it doesn't feel like they made any attempt to help them. I guess it's pretty ironic that they're pretty much exterminating themselves by hunting down the male channelers instead of helping them. You could say the fact that the Oath Rod is a sham and keeps their lives short is also another punishment.

[@marcbartuschka6372]

@@xKinjax Well the world breaking was not so much the war (which was bad enough) but the insanity of the male Aes Sedai - or so I thought. In that neither the female Aes Sedai or the 13 had much influence (the 13 were in prison and the Aes Sedai did their best to stop it). I think the female Aes Sedai must have felt deeply betrayed - seeing the atrocities by their former comrades and friends may have influced their position (and it is not so that all of them at once turned against the men, some cooperated with some men to hide the horn of valere and the dragonbanner I thought, if I remember right - it is years that I last read the books). We see mostly the Aes Sedai 3.000 years later, not the Aes Sedai 10, or 20 years after the events at the End of the war. And I would not say that they are to blame too much for not trying to clean up the male side. First it would be hard for them to incluence it. Second - after seeing how the world was almost destroyed, would you take any risk that may result in poluting Saidar too? I mean eager experiments was what exactly brought the world in so much troubble the first time. It may not be noble or brave by them, but under the circumstances I would hardly blame them.

[@justinah7400]

The power tripping female Aes Sedai refused to help Lews Therin lock up the Dark One which forced Lews Therin to do the deed with Saidin alone which left the men vulnerable to the Dark One's taint. The female Aes Sedai should shoulder a big portion of the blame for the breaking. At least Lews Therin and the 100 companion acted instead of putting petty politics first like the women.

[@PurpleOpinionM]

Um they had an alternate plan, to use the choden kal. But the forsaken captured those lands. Also imagine saidar and saidin being tainted together. The Fateful Concord was a good decision

The First Age is heavily implied to be our own Age (during which the mysterious traveling pylons were created apparently).

1. So, was lanfear mistress or lover? In WoT, I know, multiple partners were not an issue but I'm curious. Was he involved with her before falling for Elein or simultaneously? 2. Was Lews' initial plan 100% fool proof? I've noticed a trend for blaming female Aes Sedai for the failure and nixing the plan. However, if they participated, wouldn't it be possible for ALL OF THEM to be forced to use One power directly, get tainted and go insane? I also don't blame the men, to be clear. Lews & Co thought they're doing the best they could do. A bit of hubris is human universal trait among the best men or women, this or that demographic group (Nynaeve, I'm looking at you and I love you! :) ). Good video!

[@thuzan117]

minor note on Balefire, the ability is exceedingly destructive and dangerous because it does not simply destroy an object or creature in the present but also, to an extent, the past. It quite literally retconns things out of existence, typically erasing them and their impact on the world for anything from a few seconds to potentially even further back in time. It was ripping apart the fabric of reality and things got so bad that both sides in the war of power basically agreed to stop using it, likely informally.

That is not true about the Sharom being unknown. It was 1000 metres in diameter. It was built by an Aes Sedai engineer called Jorlan Corbesan. Basically, he was the Aes Sedai equivalent of Geordi Laforge from Star Trek. It was the worlds top research facility at the time, and it was suspended using the planets magnetic fields, not the One Power, and suspended 1000 metres above the worlds top university in one of their cities. When the Sharom exploded, Jorlan Corbesan was killed, since he was inside the facility, and the ruins crashed down on the university and city below, totally destroying both.

Iv never read the books, just watched the show but would love to see more of the world without the "chosen one" storyline

I'm purely a show watcher but while watching the show it seems like "how are they supposed to be able to defeat the enemy...🤨" and after watching this review its more like *"HOW ARE THEY SUPPOSED TO BE ABLE TO DEFEAT THE ENEMEY?!?!?!?!😲"* It seems like the current army of the light is playing t-ball while the enemy is the 5 time reigning MLB champs... I just dont see any logical path to victory 😔

Finntastic - K&G quoting WoT - surely I dream

[@TheHippyProductions]

the tragic thing is logically I'd side with the Betrayer of Hope, eventually he's gonna win it's just bound to happen

So if Aginor was balefired, all Trollocs and shadowspawn would vanish? You said all that soul’s achievements would vanish.

I’m a simple kind of girl. If a video says “Wheel of Time”, I watch it 😌
