I am on chapter 51, 70ish pages left of Dragon Reborn and dialogue between the characters about the forsaken (sparsely in book two) has occurred several times and I find it super annoying for one reason.

Book two and three NEVER mention Aginor at all or how Rand killed him, a forsaken, either. The characters are going on and on about how powerful the forsaken are compared to everyone else, how dangerous they are, how challenging it is to fight them etc… but they never mention or discuss that Rand already killed one. That seems like a major oversight that screams at the reader every time talk of the forsaken comes up.

It feels very amateurish because Aginor’s death is treated in the subsequent two books as if it didn’t even happen, when to my knowledge, a forsaken being killed is the kind of momentous event that would be sent to every village/town/city in the world. The result is that it undermines the “threat” factor of the forsaken.
