The voice was a reincarnation side effect, but why did RJ take his hand! FanEditor10 Send a noteboard - 27/04/2010 07:37:49 PM
Specifically, I have to say that I hate the way RJ chose to cripple Rand (or the fact that he got crippled at all). If it had to happen - even if it had to be "by accident on purpose," which is what we got - it shouldn't have been because Min blackmailed him, couldn't take care of herself at all, and he couldn't figure something better out.


I hated that Jordan chose to cripple Rand too, especially given that instead of Nynaeve healing him, he should have balefired Semhirage's ass hard enough to undo the last minute and a half and VOILA! He has his hand back, and one of the Forsaken is dead and out of the reach of the Dark One's help. If that was the FIRST thing I thought when his hand was blown off, why wasn't it his??

I hope Graendal was responsible for LTT's voice all along! What happened to our little boy?! newyorkersedai - 13/04/2010 04:02:20 AM 1235 Views
I have to disagree. Fanatic-Templar - 13/04/2010 05:34:44 AM 813 Views
You're right, but a couple of points newyorkersedai - 15/04/2010 01:38:48 AM 736 Views
I don't really get Rand self-pity from the books. Fanatic-Templar - 15/04/2010 04:01:27 AM 529 Views
"How hard will I become," Rand thought, "'til simply *being myself* feels like the taint on saidar" newyorkersedai - 15/04/2010 06:06:58 AM 693 Views
Could be that I missed it... Fanatic-Templar - 15/04/2010 06:42:43 AM 482 Views
You seem like a nice enough bloke newyorkersedai - 15/04/2010 03:03:17 PM 521 Views
Re: You're right, but a couple of points... unreasonable expectations FanEditor10 - 27/04/2010 08:02:20 AM 617 Views
Wow, very thoughtful, and I can't find anything to disagree with in what you wrote... *NM* newyorkersedai - 01/05/2010 03:11:37 AM 202 Views
You think too much of Graendal Sidious - 13/04/2010 11:46:15 AM 634 Views

I think it's realistic... Etzel - 13/04/2010 12:35:11 PM 706 Views
She couldn't, just my wishful b%^&&ing and moaning *NM* newyorkersedai - 15/04/2010 01:43:41 AM 229 Views
I hope not. I don't think Graendal had the interest or opportunity to manipulate Rand that early. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 13/04/2010 02:39:18 PM 703 Views
Hadn't considered either of those - cool newyorkersedai - 15/04/2010 01:42:31 AM 617 Views
I really hope Graendal wasn't Yondaime - 15/04/2010 12:10:39 AM 636 Views
Very true! But I never said compulsion was the cause newyorkersedai - 15/04/2010 01:22:45 AM 702 Views
