The Wheel of Time Preview Honors "The Eye of the World" Anniversary

To celebrate the 31st anniversary of the publication of The Eye of the World, a fantasy novel by writer Robert Jordan that introduces readers to the world of "The Wheel of Time," Amazon Prime and showrunner Rafe Judkins (Chuck, Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.) is offering fans a look at some of the design and concept art for the series via new preview images as well as a teaser video. The clip opens with the first page of the novel, with the sentence "The Wheel of Time turns, and Ages come and pass, leaving memories that become legend." From here, Judkins discusses why The Eye of The World is so special before offering a selection of art designs- beginning with one of two men overlooking a valley, with a small encampment and bridge near the river below:

From there, we take a look at a festival, with numerous lights adorning the town and women dancing in a circle as men look on:

From there, a group of wagons surrounding a campsite where people sit around the campfire:

Now we have a look at a group of riders on horseback, crossing a bridge over a stream:

Finally, we have concept art of a hooded rider on horseback riding through a deserted city covered by pale white fog:

Now here's a look at the full video that puts it all into context:
