The Cost of Balance: What the Creator Allows, the Pattern Endures | S7 Ep. 1

The Black Tower Podcast: A Wheel of Time Podcast

In this episode of The Black Tower Podcast, we dive deep into the moral heart of The Wheel of Time — the balance that holds the Pattern together. What does it mean to live in a world where “the balance must be maintained,” even at the cost of countless lives? Is the Creator’s hands-off approach truly divine wisdom… or cosmic indifference?

Join your favorite Asha’man as we explore the philosophical and emotional weight behind the Pattern’s design — from the Age of Legends to Tarmon Gai’don — and what it says about free will, destiny, and the price of harmony.

🔥 Topics include:

- The Creator’s silence and the meaning of non-intervention

- The Wheel’s role in preserving equilibrium

- Heroes, villains, and the moral gray that defines the Pattern

- Parallels to real-world ideas of divine balance and justice

⚡ Dive in, question everything, and embrace the madness — only on The Black Tower Podcast!
