I'm rather looking forward to the change and see what the history is behind it. Or, if that's not gone into detail, having an enjoyable time using my imagination to come up with interesting possibilities.Also, the Wheel of Time series was pretty decent, and downright awesome in Season 3. This coming from someone who started reading the series in the '90s. You can see my enthusiasm for it in the TV series thread elsewhere on this forum.Edit. As for your initial question of "why". Because the status quo is boring. Changing things (to a reasonable degree - the time skip I will agree was way over the line, but, you know, I've learned to live with it) makes the setting more lively and lived-in, more real. There's no reason to just print the same thing over and over again - change some things up! Make some changes to make it interesting! Inspire our imagination with some new things and new directions from time to time! How can it be a living, breathing world without some change?It's not change for change's sake. It's change because change occurs when time passes. Change occurs. And since change occurs, some things have to change. Since this is a fictional world, it may seem arbitrary, but thats just inherent when doing this within the genre. The PDK changed because change occurs when time passes, and since something had to change for the sake of verisimiltude, it ended up being them. Because, I'm betting, if they had left them alone and chosen something else, the complaints from some quarters would have been just as loud about whatever this different thing that had been changed.</blockquote>
