First Last sunset of 2021. See you all on the other side. ?☀️

Pile your plates high, and fill those glasses it's time for a celebration! Have a favourite Thanksgiving, autumn or winter receipe you'd like to share? Or not even the full receipe - what do you like to eat and drink as the year draws to a close

Another year has passed, with some easy spots and some harder for everyone I'm sure. But let's take a moment and share the things, large or small, that makes us thankful.

so we're having our launch party here, are any of you hosting your own at home? planning anything special for the series premiere? having people over? dressing up? making any special food? what are you plans?

this thread is here for all those who are UP TO DATE on watching the Wheel of Time tv show. so there will be SPOILERS, if you haven't watched all current episodes, you may want to keep clear until you do. here's the place to talk about the show! your favorite parts, what parts do you not like? which changes do you think are for the better or not? etc etc!

As I’m sure you know by now, Amazon Prime Video's Wheel of Time TV show premieres on the 19th of November. You might even have heard that there will be a big Red Carpet event in London on the 15th of November. What you might not know, is that our very own Jason Denzel has flown to London to be part of that! (See this video for more details from Jason himself.) Though Dragonmount has its own Wheel of Time TV Show board, we wanted to create a special area specifically for the White Tower and Warder members to squee to their hearts’ content (though everyone else is welcome too!). If you would like to (re-)unite with friends old and new as …

Holy cow check out this 3D advert!

Feel free to discuss and comment on what's happening here.

Do you think they'll dress "in character", or just wear your good ole normal everyday red carpet fancy frocks etc?

What is says on the label. As I'm sure you've heard by now, Jason is attending the Red Carpet event for the London premiere of Amazon's WoT show, and will be interviewing the cast and crew. So if you had the chance, what would you ask them?

With Moiraine gracing the Tower with her presence, we've recruited her to be judge over a contest. A Moiraine impersonation contest. that's right we're having a ball and everyone is Moiraine. here's the deal. light RP time, we're throwing a party for Moiraine, and every gets to dress like her, and act like her. post the best pics of things you'd wear as Moiraine, the kinds of food you think she'd bring and enjoy. the decorations. AND type all your replies as though you are her. Make sense? (if not ask away) Moiraine herself will be in attendance and be watching each of you. the person she deems the BEST 'Moiraine' wins …

Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to put your Eyes and Ears to the test and sleuth out posts from across the White Tower's history. For the next several days, I'll be giving out hints, and you have to tell me what post I'm talking about. Credit will be given if you find something that's close, but not what I originally intended. When you reply, please make sure you use the Spoiler option to hide your answer from everyone else, that way no one has it ruined. You can turn this on with the little Eye icon in the formatting bar An example of how this might work is, I will ask To which you mi…

Have you ever wondered if you could do what Moiraine does? Or said to yourself, 'i would have handled that differently if i were her?' well now's your chance!! that's right, it's your turn to be Moiraine! sign up by simply posting "i want to be Moiraine!" and you'll be presented with a problem only moiraine can deal with. and its up to you to tell us how you'd solve the issue!

Look at any fandom, and people's creativity will shortly follow. Whether through music, art, videos, stories, you name it, people find all sorts of ways to express their love. Today we want to focus on art. What are your favourite pieces of art of Moiraine? We've seen what she looks like thanks to the Amazon previews, but what art best captured the image of her in your head? Or if you're the artistic type (so entirely the opposite of me), have you ever made art of Moiraine? What inspired you to make it? I'd love to hear the creative process behind your creation. If you're feeling brave...take a shot at making and posting som…

It took a lot of work, but through the talents and connections of our Amyrlin, she's been able to wrangle a very busy Aes Sedai from her current missions to come and spend some time back here at the Tower. Specifically to spend some time with you and the event in her honor. That's right, Moiraine is here and has graciously accepted our request to answer any questions you may have with her, discuss some topics and roam about the Event through the remainder of the month! So right here, if you ever wanted to interact with Moiraine, now's your chance. anyone have a question to start it off with?

The Eye of the World - 13, Choices, 180 "The Dark One is after you three, one or all, and if I let you go running off wherever you want to go, he will take you. Whatever the Dark One wants, I oppose, so hear this and know it true. Before I let the Dark One have you, I will destroy you myself." The Dragon Reborn- 6, The Hunt Begins, 95 "There’s always something new from you,” Perrin growled. “Can’t you tell us what to expect once in a while, instead of explaining after it happens?”... You want me to share a lifetime of knowledge with you in a single afternoon? Or even a single year? I will tell you this. Be wary of dreams, Perrin Aybar…

I came to notice that a lot of stories I read / watch either happen in cities or in forest. It's only very rarely that beaches or even sea worlds are mentioned. So, In this thread, let's chat, obsess, share our favorite stories that happen in such worlds ! I'll start ? When it comes to sea worlds - I really recommend Katya's World. This sci-fi story takes place on a planet completely covered by water. Katya's a very young submarine pilot who will be caught in very strange events on her very first mission ? For beaches, I could talk about the Pirates of Cari…

What kind of cocktails do you think would represent some of your favorite heroes? These could be DC heroes, Marvel heroes, or any kind of heroes really. Post a pic, or give a description, and let's discuss! I imagine that Tony Stark would go for something flashy, so maybe a flaming drink. He had been seen drinking single-malt scotch a couple times, so that might be his drink of choice, but I can totally see him going for something epic too.

Gather round, brothers and sisters, Mother. * Grins.* I know many of y'all are wondering what us Warders are up to. What exactly IS Mardi Gras. It'll be a pleasure to tell you the tale behind it. Almost everything about Mardi Gras originates from French Catholicism and our Civil War, 1861-1865. And quite a lot of it is tragic. New Orleans was founded by the French Catholics and Louisiana is filled with French Catholics in many ways. They came from everywhere France, whether it was from France itself, Quebec after the British took over Canada in 1763, Haiti during and after their rebellion ending in 1804, other territories that had…

It wouldn't be Mardi Gras without King Cake. King Cake (or King's Cake) comes in a wide variety depending on the country where Mardi Gras, Epiphany, or Lent is celebrated. Traditionally King Cake is made with French-bread dough with sugar on top in the Mardi Gras colors of Purple, Green, and Gold. In times past, a little bean was hidden inside the cake. Whoever stumbled on the bean was declared "King of the Feast." Over time, the bean has been replaced with a figurine of a baby. So with that, we're going to have a simple game for this feast. I've hidden a baby inside th…
