The Wheel of Time Season 2 finale calls forth the heroes of the horn. But, in a major change from the book, Uno makes a surprising return among them.
The Big Picture To say Uno Nomesta's death in Episode 3 was a shock to many book fans of The Wheel of Time is an understatement. Uno, in the books, is a foul-mouthed Shienaran warrior who would only attempt to hold his tongue in front of women. This is pretty much exactly who we are presented with within the show, right down to his topknot, missing an eye, and sporting that very stylish eye patch. But there is one important detail that was changed: He survived the Seanchan in the books.
Now, Robert Jordan's book series has over two thousand named characters in it. Not everyone is going to make it in, and there will be changes to the ones that do show up. It makes sense that some characters will be consolidated, and some characters will have different fates to keep the show fresh and thrilling. Uno was used for two things in the show. In his final sequence he defies the Seanchan, refusing to kneel to them.
Who Are the Heroes of the Horn? The Heroes of the Horn have been built up across the second season, starting with Perrin's arc. Late last season, we see Padan Fain break into Fal Dara and steal the Horn of Valere, along with having Mat's dagger, and leaving. Perrin, along with the Shienaran's, hunt for the Horn to make sure it is blown on the side of the light, not the shadow, so that the Great Heroes of the Horn will fight on their side .
The Heroes of the Horn are the heroes of past ages who are called forth to fight with the blowing of the Horn. When Mat blows the Horn, fans of the books will be able to spot many of them just by looks, but Uno shows up as a Hunter of the Horn too, which is a huge surprise for fans of his character, especially for those who were disappointed in his early death in the show. It seems we may get more Uno in the future of the show, just as a hero of the Horn this turning of the Wheel.
Who Did Uno Replace? And Who Is Gaidal Cain? Uno is not just a new Hero of the Horn either, but an amalgamation of two characters. According to Rafe Judkins, the showrunner of The Wheel of Time, Uno has been combined with another Hero of the Horn.
