Season 1 focuses on Moiraine Damodred (Pike), a member of the magical all-women Aes Sedai. She is searching for a small group of young people from the village of Emond’s Field because she believes one of them is a reincarnation of the Dragon, prophesied to either save or destroy the world from an evil known as the Dark One. On Season 2, though the Dragon Reborn has vanquished the Dark One, evil is not gone. And on Season 3, the heroes must confront the darkness within themselves.
