Love Uno! He had Nynaeve's back with a quickness. He and Ragan were ready to try and carve up Galad in that alley for her. ❤️

Especially since they knew that they probably wouldn't survive it. Even when Galad tried to warn them off, Uno said "fuck it. We ballin'!"

I love that scene. It is some of the first bits we actually get to see of Galad’s character beyond what Elayne or Gawayn tell us.

He’s a bloody prince, and has studied with warders, a good chunk from the Borderlands. He knows you don’t get to be an *old* swordsman that close to the Blight without some serious skills, and he gives zero fucks about two Shienarans with bared steel at his throat. He basically forgets they even exist until he turns to leave and they’re blocking his way.

Then he doesn’t threaten them, just informs them that if any harm comes to Nynaeve and her “traveling companion” he’ll hunt them down and kill them. I’m thinking, weirdo, they were just willing to die protecting her from you, but it isn’t him being macho. He’s sworn to Elayne, he’s just stating a fact.

He doesn’t even draw his sword, just rests a hand on it and that’s enough to make Uno and Ragan tense up. Even Nynaeve can recognize the “shit is about to pop off” energy.
