Wheel of Time - Cast Predictions/Wishlist

I'm real nervous they're setting this up to pull an Egwene is the Dragon switcharoo.

The male half of the Power is tainted. It's the entire freaking plot. The Dragon cannot be a woman because it negates the entire threat of the Taint. That would undo the whole story. Which makes it such a stupid thing to claim unless they're setting us up for some real girl-power stuff down the road.

I dont think they will change the story in that way. At most we will get some omissions for sub characters, and some instances of missing character development. Example Thom told his story of Owyn, but he never met Moirraine to show his contempt for the Tower. If they do change it like that they will lose their core audience.
