Hey, this is Eddie from Aes Veshan.
I’m Mikah from Aes Veshan.
We are going to be recording a audio description of the Wheel of Time teaser trailer, and we are going to read the description of the next set of scenes. So we’ll read some, play the portion of the trailer, read some, play the portion of the trailer, and so on until we finish. As we read the descriptions, the screen shows the Amazon Prime Wheel of Time logo described at the end of the trailer. The bottom left says Aes Veshan, and bottom right says audio descriptions. So, Mikah is going to start us off with the first bit.
The video starts with a closeup shot of Nynaeve standing behind Egwene.
Nynaeve says, “Be strong.” We see from further away that the two are standing on a cliff. Nynaeve pushes Egwene into a river, and Egwene screams as she falls.
The river is surrounded by high cliff sides.
Cut to black.
The Amazon Prime Video logo shows over a valley with a river and mountains in the background.
Our view moves downward to show villagers going about their daily lives in Emonds Field. A tree stands in an open area surrounded by shingle-roofed buildings. The Winespring Inn can be seen ahead.
Moiraine’s voiceover begins with, “The Wheel of Time turns.”
We see the common room of the Winespring Inn filled with people.
The view shifts so we see Rand, Mat, and Perrin sitting at a table laughing together.
Moiraine narrates, “And ages come and pass.” Egwene enters the inn with hands folded in front of her. Nynaeve quickly steps to the side and turns toward her.
We get brief glimpses of Rand and Nynaeve both smiling at Egwene.
Cut to black.
Fade out from black to show a group of people on horseback riding through a valley next to a river.
Moiraine narrates, “Leaving memories…”
The scene shifts to show Stepin, Kerene’s warder, standing in front of flames. He kisses an Aes Sedai’s ring with a tear falling from his left eye.
The next scene shows a pool of water with rocks behind it; the colors of each ajah float on the surface in lines emanating from the center where Egwene emerges. She has various colors of paint on her face and dress.
Moiraine narrates, “That become legend…”
We see a dark, curved, city street with sunlight shining at the far end. There’s a caption overlay that says, “BASED ON THE BEST-SELLING BOOK SERIES.”
The next scene shows part of Tar Valon with the White Tower in the foreground and Dragonmount in the distance.
Next, we see doors opening and someone wearing a pair of boots steps inside a room.
We see a slowly-focusing view of Moiraine removing the hood of her cloak. She narrates, “The power inside you…”
An overhead scene flashes of Egwene struggling against the rapids as she goes downriver. Then we see her floating on her back and taking a breath in calmer waters.
Moiraine narrates, “All over the world, there are different names for it…”
A new scene shows the Hall of the Tower from behind the Amyrlin Seat. We see the Sitters rising from their seats, Moiraine standing in the middle, Green Aes Sedai on her left, and Red on her right.
The Amyrlin Seat and seven daises are arranged in a circle. Each dais has three wide steps leading up to a platform with three chairs.
There’s a dais on each side of the Amyrlin Seat. A gap separates those from the other five, which complete the circle.
Starting to the Amyrlin’s left, the ajahs represented on each dais are: Red, Gray, Yellow, Blue, White, Brown, and Green.
As Moiraine narrates, “But it’s one thing”, the scene shows a closeup of Siuan Sanche, the Amyrlin Seat, in a golden outfit with pleated shoulder crescents and a large collar. The collar stands stiffly behind her neck, and is prominently visible over her chest. It is striped in all the colors of the Ajahs, under a translucent white fabric.
We see a side view of Moiraine lying on her back with Kerene’s overlapped hands hovering above her chest, before switching to an overhead view. We can see the One Power flowing from Kerene to a wound in Moiraine’s shoulder.
Moiraine narrates, “One Power.”
The next scene shows the center of Emonds Field at night with the tree and surrounding buildings on fire.
Wispy white streams of Power coalesce on a figure standing in the middle.
Moiraine narrates, “And women who can touch it…”
The scene changes to a view of Liandrin and three other Red Aes Sedai standing in a forest.
We see a quick shot of Leanne slamming down the Amyrlin’s staff in the Hall of the Tower.
The screen goes black. Moiraine narrates, “We protect the world.”
There is a quick succession of scenes of Alanna using the One Power to protect a group of people from a hail of arrows.
We see an aerial view of half of Tar Valon with the White Tower in the foreground. A caption reads, “THIS NOVEMBER.”
Then there’s a view of Rand and Mat climbing rocky hills and looking back at Shadar Logoth in the distance. It’s a circular city surrounded by high walls, sitting beside a river.
We see Rand nocking an arrow and drawing it to his cheek.
We see Mat inside a stone room, holding up a dagger with a ruby set in its cross-guard. Tam narrates, “No matter what happens…”
The scene changes to Egwene, Perrin, and Rand standing in front of a doorway, looking at a statue being consumed by shadow.
We see Egwene running up a narrow flight of stairs onto the parapet of a city wall.
The city to the left and the wall ahead are rapidly being consumed by shadow.
As Tam narrates, “All the pain we face,” we see Mat looking away from a man in a very narrow cage.
We see a flash of a wolf snarling before Perrin backs away in concern.
As a shirtless Rand sits on a bench next to Egwene, Tam narrates, “The heartbreak…”
Egwene looks away from Rand.
We see Perrin and Mat sitting against an aged stone pillar.
Then, we get a closeup view of Tam’s face as he says, “The Wheel keeps turning…”
We see three scenes from an aerial view in rapid succession.
First, people dance in two concentric circles. Second, two concentric circles of bodies lay in shallow graves with a group of Aes Sedai in the center. Third, there is a view of the Hall of the Tower with the Amyrlin walking away from Moiraine, who stands in the center of the room.
We see a hooded Myrddraal on horseback. The horse has a skull covering its head. As we see the Myrddraal, Lan says, “The Dark One is coming for your friends…”
The next scene shows Lan talking to someone holding a dagger at his throat.
We see the same Myrddraal riding its horse, surrounded by Trollocs. Some are carrying torches.
We see Rand and Mat running frantically through the street of a town. They look back toward a figure turning a corner in the distance.
We see some men with swords running through a forest. Another shot shows Lan punching one of them.
The next scene shows a closeup shot of Logain’s face as wispy white streams of Power expand from him.
That same burst of Power erupts from where he’s confined in a cage, blasting two seated Aes Sedai backward.
One of the Aes Sedai slams into a broken stone pillar.
Then we see Nynaeve with her back against a slender tree, while someone kneeling in the background lifts an ax.
We see two men opening doors to the Hall of the Tower, and Moiraine walks out. In the background, we see three Brown Aes Sedai facing away from her, looking out of some windows.
The Red and Green Aes Sedai that were with her earlier wait outside the doors.
We hear Siuan saying, “The Last Battle is coming” as Moiraine leaves the Hall, before the next shot shows Siuan addressing someone.
Then we see a blurry scene of Trollocs, one raising a spear.
There’s another scene of Moiraine now riding through a forest.
Lan straightens from a kneeling position, looking up.
Off-screen, Siuan says, “The only thing that matters is what you do.”
Then we see a group of men with swords and shields running toward another group.
The next scene shows Nynaeve pulling a knife from her belt, while Egwene, standing behind her, brandishes her own.
We see Stepin leaping with two axes drawn. Another view shows an Aes Sedai standing behind him, weaving the One Power. Logain kneels in front of Stepin, surrounded by a net of the Power.
Next, we see Lan turning around and swinging his sword in front of a blast of Power. The blast strikes three Trollocs as he slashes through them.
Screen cuts to black.
Moiraine narrates, “Whatever happens now, there’s no turning back…”
We see four riders galloping to meet another group of four in front of a Waygate.
Next, a cloaked figure on horseback rides away from us toward the Winespring Inn as it rains.
Then we see a Myrddraal screeching with its mouth wide. Inside of its mouth are many rows of very long, very sharp teeth.
There are quick flashes of Trollocs running, before Lan quickly turns to face us.
Then we see Moiraine hunched over with her arms outstretched, slowly turning with streams of the Power flowing around her.
We see a blast of Power flowing away from her as Lan somersaults underneath it.
The blast of Power hits a Trolloc as Lan stabs it.
Then we see Moiraine from above with her arms outstretched and her head thrown back as streams of Power circle in on her.
We see Moiraine closeup, snapping her eyes open, before a view of the clouds shows lightning striking down.
We see a metallic snake whose tail is hidden in a smoky background coiling inward. As we get a wider view, it appears as if the snake is eating itself, but its spiraling continues.
The words, “THE WHEEL OF TIME” appear in the center.
Above the logo, we see the words, “Amazon original series”
Below, we see, “November 19.”
The Prime Video logo appears on a blue background. At the bottom, it says, “Included with Prime, restrictions apply, see http://amazon.com/amazonprime for details”
