#sorry for making this post unrebloggable. I was just being charitable. I hate the sanderson books and no longer agree with this post.

Mat dug in his saddlebags as Lan withdrew. He pulled out Rand’s banner, the one of the ancient Aes Sedai. He’d gathered it earlier, thinking perhaps it might have some use. “Somebody hoist this thing up. We’re fighting in Rand’s bloody name. Let’s show the Shadow we’re proud of it.”

Aw hey this makes for a nice contrast against Mat finding Rand holding the Dragon Banner in TGH and resenting him for it versus him raising it to fight on his behalf for the last push during the battle <3
