Believe it or not, in this chapter Rand and Tam make it out of the woods. Well, at least the chapter title isn't lying. You can't trust them anymore these days.
The chapter starts with Rand suddenly realizing that it's gotten lighter. He's still in shock from the attack, and it's all he can do to keep moving forward. It makes sense after everything he's gone through, and I can almost feel bad for him. I say almost, because his character is so ill-defined that his Chosen One™ trademark hasn't worn off yet. Also, I am kind of a jerk and like seeing characters suffer. That's what happens when you get an English degree, I guess.
