I was just re-reading The Eye of the World. And I noticed that Lan gets compared to a wolf a number of times. Was that supposed to be more significant? I think it's interesting that Lan gets compared to wolves, and Elias the wolf man is a former Warder. So it kind of draws this connection between Warders and Wolves. Was that an intentional connection? Why isn't it developed more later in the story? Was it a dropped plot thread?

I can kind of imagine Warders being like chained wolves. Suppressed wolves. Their true nature obfuscated in order to serve Aes Sedai. That would explain all of Lan's heightened senses in the first book. He seemed to see farther, walk quieter, and have a 6th sense for dark creatures like Fades and Trollocs.

Am I crazy, or was that all foreshadowing dropped in later books?
