Against Lan’s wishes, Moiraine sends him away, forcing the Warder on a new path.

Despite everything, Lan remains fiercely protective of Moiraine, but he does so without loyally following her orders.
Lan knows where he wants to be, asking Moiraine to reinstate their bond in theSeason 2 finale.
His love forNynaeveand backstory are still present, but there is more to him.

His drive to protect Moiraine never wavers, and the added plot only emphasizes that.
Season 2 gives Lan a more dramatic story, changing the character slightly, but only for the better.
Both seasons ofThe Wheel of Timeare available to stream on Prime Video.
