13. Both were present at the cleansing of saidin, though neither was seen in combat.


Pretty sure Semi was not seen at the cleansing nor was she there. She had a pass due to her under cover position.


She was there. RJ addressed this in a Tor QotW several years ago. Here is the Q&A:

Week 15 Question: At the risk of being RAFO'd: Mesaana was punished for ignoring her orders to go to stop Rand from cleansing saidin. Was Semirhage also punished for ignoring orders, or did she have special exemption?

Robert Jordan Answers: Semirhage was present at Shadar Logoth, though not seen. You didn't see Graendal, either, though admittedly Moghedien thought of her, thinking it would be good if she or Cyndane died. If I always tried to show everyone who was present at a battle or the like, the books would be a LOT longer than they are now. And those battles would get rather boring, a list of names. Go down the checklist and make sure everyone gets mentioned. Boring. Anyway, Mesaana was the only one who tried to sit it out. By the way, Moridin also was not present, for reasons that will become self-evident as you read on.


Note that RJ misspoke about Graendal. We did see her, from Verin's PoV. She wasn't named, but Verin's description made it obvious that it was Graendal.

I was under the impression that Semirhage was quite feared among the Forsaken? - 20/04/2010 07:25:45 PM 1151 Views
Yes and in tGS Graendal thought she might be leading the triumForsakenate - 20/04/2010 07:33:31 PM 1006 Views
