The Wheel of Time is a fantasy television series streaming on Prime Video. Based on Robert Jordan’s book series, it first premiered on November 19, 2021. The show tracks Moiraine Sedai's search for the Dragon Reborn, a man prophesied to either save or wipe out the planet.
The original Dragon before Rand al'Thor was Lews Therin Telamon, also known as the Dragon of the Age of Legends. Selected to battle the Dark One in the Age of Legend, he was the male champion.
Following the influence of Dark One corrupting Saidin, the male half of the One Power, Lews Therin gave in to insanity and the World broke. Later, he passed suddenly, but his soul would resurface as the Dragon Reborn, this time under Rand al' Thor.

Everything to know about Lews Therin Telamon: The dragon before Rand al'Thor
Lews Therin Telamon was a powerful Aes Sedai and the Dragon of the Age of Legends. He was tasked with fighting the Dark One during a period of immense technological and magical advancement. He was celebrated as a hero at this time.
Lews Therin started to lose his sanity though when the Dark One corrupted Saidin, the male half of the One Power. His supporters, likewise male Aes Sedai, suffered the same end. This set off a violent upheaval that destroyed civilization known as the Breaking of the World.
Lews Therin is explored in The Wheel of Time books and TV series. After his madness and devastation, the original Dragon had a complicated legacy. Former hero Lews Therin destroyed the world, making him a tragic figure in the series.
Modern Rand al'Thor, the reincarnation of Lews Therin, faces similar challenges. Rand faces madness and power as the Dragon Reborn after Lews Therin's visions and emotions.
Lews Therin's place in The Wheel of Time is crucial since he prepares Rand's narrative. The Dragonmount, a volcanic peak honoring his terrible end, sprang from his death and the way he killed himself by releasing the One Power.
His legacy continues to influence Rand, who struggles with the same burden. Rand must come to terms with Lews Therin’s past while navigating the challenges of his own identity as the Dragon Reborn.
