Set in a world where time is cyclical, The Wheel of Time explores the lives of several young people whose destinies are intertwined with an age-old prophecy. At the heart of the story is Moiraine Sedai (played by Rosamund Pike), a powerful member of the Aes Sedai, a group of women who wield magic through the One Power. She embarks on a quest to find the Dragon Reborn, a prophesied hero who is destined to either save the world or destroy it. Along the way, Moiraine gathers a group of companions, including Rand al’Thor (Josha Stradowski), Perrin Aybara (Marcus Rutherford), Mat Cauthon (Barney Harris), and Egwene al’Vere (Zoe Robins), each of whom has their own role to play in the unfolding events. As the group journeys through dangerous lands, they are pursued by the forces of the Dark One, a malevolent being who seeks to break the cycle of time and plunge the world into eternal darkness.
