During a recent conversation with Collider, Robins described the experience of filming the emotional reunion scene, highlighting the characters' reactions to learning Rand was not dead and seeing him accept his place as the Dragon Reborn. She also expressed the joy of the cast being together on set and described them as a family, excited and silly when filming together.

Nynaeve's Journey in Season 3

Following Robins' triumphant performance as Nynaeve in The Wheel of Time season 1, her character faced challenges in season 2, including a channeling block and her journey to become an Aes Sedai. The separation from Egwene led to a new partnership with Elayne, which is expected to further develop in season 3 as the series adapts the fourth book, The Shadow Rising.

Season 3 may see Nynaeve embracing more of her power after the obstacles she faced in season 2. Robins has teased a significant storyline for Nynaeve in season 3, with her partnership with Elayne evolving as they learn to work together while also butting heads.

While season 3 was announced in July 2022, the official release date is yet to be confirmed. Fans can anticipate the return of Nynaeve and the Two Rivers gang as they continue their journey in The Wheel of Time season 3.
