After breaking up at the doomed city of Shadar Logoth, the three groups are making their way to Tar Valon. Rand and Mat are traveling with Thom Merrilin whose nephew could channel the One’s power but the Aes Sedai took away his ability.

While Moiraine, Lan and Nynaeve have found a group of Aes Sedai in whose custody is a self-proclaimed Dragon reborn being transported to the White Tower. We bring you the latest updates!
The Wheel Of Time Season 1 Episode 5 Speculation
Thom plants seeds of doubt in Rand’s mind after he tells him about his nephew, who ended up taking his own life after he was ‘gentled’ by the Aes Sedai. Rand is worried Mat is showing similar symptoms as Thom’s nephew.
Rand and Mat’s journey also reveals a fifth candidate in the pool of potential Dragon Reborns. They meet a barmaid on their way who is a Darkfriend and has dreamt of five, and not four, potential Dragons. We are forced to think the fifth one was Logain but by end of episode, we’re in for a surprise.
Meanwhile, Logain was proving difficult to contain, requiring two Sisters at a time to hold back his powers. But in the last minutes of the episode, Moiraine tells him his powers are but a flicker compared to the true Dragon’s.
Just then, Nynaeve’s matted locks channel an incredible healing power, curing all the fatal injuries Logain incurs. She subconsciously taps into the One power and heals everyone in the room, all seven sisters and their warders. Before he is gentled, Logain looks at Nynaeve and whispers “powers like the sun”. Could Nynaeve be the Dragon reborn or at least the mysterious fifth candidate in the pool?
Find out in the next episode.
