One of the weird things about The Wheel of Time the book series is a lot of the characters very early on are extremely powerful. Which in a series doesn't really give you anywhere to go especially naeve especially naeve yeah well she's the strongest Cher in a thousand years but and it's part of you know when we talk about progression or people leveling up or gaining new powers and power creep across a series yeah it kind of started out at a full 11 in eye of the world and then there had to be ways for Jordan to kind of Ratchet it back down again otherwise it creates the issue of well why don't they just use magic to solve everything right
