You stated in another interview that Mat’s memories came from adventurers who traveled through the ter’angreal . However several of Mat’s memories end with the adventurer dying. Since adventurers probably didn’t go through the ter’angreal after they died, how could the ‘Finns have obtained these memories?
A good question. I was wondering when someone would ask that. I expected it as soon as Mat started revealing those old memories. At least a partial answer will be coming up in the next main sequence book, so I guess you could say this is a RAFO. But I will say that if I said those adventurers all entered through the two ter’angreal , I misspoke. A good many entered through the Tower of Ghenjei, which was more widely known in earlier years, if never exactly a household name.
The misstatement in question comes from the Crossroads of Twilight prologue ebook interview .
