The Wheel of Time Season 3 Starts With a Bang
It’s a showdown between good and evil — at least in the first 11 minutes of The Wheel of Time Season 3. Prime Video has shared the opening scene of the highly anticipated upcoming season. The sneak peek is now available at the end of Reacher Season 3 Episode 3 as part of its triple-episode premiere. You can also check it out under the “Extras” section on the show’s page for Season 3.
In the opening scene, we get confirmation that the Black Ajah is most certainly real. They’ve sworn themselves as Darkfriends to the Dark One, turning on their sisters of the White Tower. What transpires next is a vicious, bloody battle that tears the Aes Sedai asunder and propels the overarching Season 3 narrative.
