Wheel of Time has a secret sneak preview of season 2 hidden in an old episode

The wheel of time‘s second season is almost here and now a sneak peek is hidden in season 1. Prime Video released the clip on Wednesday and on the end of the season 1 finale.

The clip opens with henchmen of the Dark One chasing a small child through the woods, until she escapes their clutches by running through a massive door into a stone conference room where she comes face to face with the The Man himself. He comforts her and then explains that people think he’s a monster too, before showing his control over the monsters chasing her.

According to a Prime Video press release, this short scene is the actual opening of the first episode of Season 2. The clip kicks off the return of the Dark One, but not much else. Of course, the Aes Sedai, along with the Father of Lies himself, also have to deal with the invaders from across the sea who were plagued in the original Season 1 ending. But to see how all those conflicts get resolved, we’ll have to wait until Wheel of Time returns next month.

It won’t be that long: Season 2 will premiere on September 1.
