Captain Lopar has no relation to the bizarre Seanchan beasts, it's just a coincidence. We spend a little time discussing the culture of the, 'Maule' one of the poorest districts in the city of Tear.  We have get lot of insight from Suian's stories which are scattered throughout the books. Mother Guenna puts Thom in a headlock after forcing medicine down his throat, conveniently freeing Mat to start scouting the Stone for a way to break in without any meddling from the older, wiser man, for better or worse. WoTSpoilers is a weekly book discussion podcast.
