I might be getting the last book tomorrow, so I'm now posting general reactions to spoilers and guesses before I read it and post a proper reaction/review.
If you're planning to read the series at any time, either don't read this stuff or forget it later.

- Spoiler:
- Rand lives, but that was obvious. He's the hero. And it's been prophesied at least twice. I wonder if Min does wind up helping save him like she'd been trying to. In the prophecies, "sacrifice" will be him going there thinking he'll die and "blood" will be a few drops/an injury.
Mat/Tuon again. Its about time they sorted out their relationship and marriage. They'll probably be cute again. I wonder if he'll convince her to support Rand.
I think the Ogier will return. Maybe help Lan and the rest of the Malkieri?
Rand needs to react to learning Morgase's alive, and then we'll have the same "she's alive!" reaction to Moiraine. And he also needs to learn about Elayne's pregnancy.
Logain's moment of glory might make me cry in happiness. If that "the gift, not the curse, the gift" line is canon and not a fan's reaction, I'll really cry at it.
Perrin and Lanfear - all I can say is watch out Lanfear, because Faile is the most jealous wife ever.
Olver - I'm torn on interpretation here. Realism and what I've heard makes me think the kid will die. But because he's so young, I'm also hoping that Neal really did survive somehow and rescues him. We didn't see Neal die, just the bloodstained blades....
EGWENE AND GAWYN DYING Cry: I've basically been bawling my eyes out daily over this spoiler since I read it. I love them!! I wanted them to survive, live for ages and have loads of kids! I wonder how it'll happen, which'll die first. I'm thinking maybe her That'll be painful to read. Gawyn's scene with Galad telling him that Rand's his halfbrother too was bittersweet. I've basically been having traumatic dreams over this, and trying to comfort myself saying that maybe she'll be reborn in Telaranrhiod - it'd suit her - and maybe she could drag him along with her. They'd be reborn time and time as a destined couple, like Birgitte and Gaidal *hopes*
Siuan dies too I think that means Gareth will die. Unless she finds a way to release him? I don't think she would though.
