if there are clues in TFoH I find it hard to believe that Slayer is involved darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 28/05/2010 12:29:40 PM
The last we saw of him he had an arrow in him and was fleeing the TR.

He's not mentioned or seen through the entire book IIRC, odds are he's off convalescing. Unless he makes a brief appearance stalking someone in TAR that I am not recalling, and that can hardly be called a clue to Asmo's death!

Surely, there can never be enough Asmo threads! *NM* Etzel - 27/05/2010 04:18:06 PM 693 Views
I have a theory on the killer that doesn't involve Slayer... FanEditor10 - 28/05/2010 03:41:23 AM 1059 Views
It's not really obvious... Etzel - 28/05/2010 09:08:27 AM 989 Views

The way you twist things, it certainly seems so! fionwe1987 - 27/05/2010 05:07:22 PM 1129 Views
Bah, hogwash! Etzel - 27/05/2010 05:17:37 PM 1005 Views

Yes, but Fain is a far cry from your average non-channeler darius_sedai - 28/05/2010 12:01:44 PM 1122 Views
As is Slayer Etzel - 28/05/2010 12:25:07 PM 995 Views
There is no evidence of this at all darius_sedai - 28/05/2010 12:32:37 PM 976 Views
Yeah, the evil guys don't manage to harm the good guys Etzel - 28/05/2010 12:38:57 PM 940 Views
so far we've seen Slayer kill a sleeping guy and his wife darius_sedai - 28/05/2010 12:45:14 PM 954 Views
I disagree. *NM* Etzel - 28/05/2010 12:50:02 PM 1075 Views
You always twist the quotes to make them say what Jordan didn't intend to say.... DomA - 28/05/2010 02:20:09 PM 1029 Views
I think this is your interpretation Etzel - 28/05/2010 02:50:14 PM 981 Views

your Slayer theory is ridiculously complex! darius_sedai - 28/05/2010 12:37:08 PM 1012 Views
It just requires to combine some clues from the first 5 books & some common sense Etzel - 28/05/2010 12:44:10 PM 964 Views
common sense? darius_sedai - 28/05/2010 12:51:25 PM 981 Views

The main problem with Graendal is... Etzel - 28/05/2010 05:31:09 PM 977 Views

Re: The main problem with Graendal is... DomA - 28/05/2010 09:20:27 PM 1114 Views
my first thought was it was Sammael or Graendal. Come LoC it was clear to me that it was Graendal. darius_sedai - 28/05/2010 09:44:38 PM 1146 Views

Sorry, Lanfear did it..... trzaska2000 - 29/05/2010 03:47:44 AM 888 Views
Considering that RJ didn't even necessarily want to reveal it, it was pretty random, yeah. *NM* Etzel - 29/05/2010 08:25:54 AM 594 Views

I think I found an RJ quote that kills the Slayer theory darius_sedai - 29/05/2010 01:57:20 PM 909 Views
If Slayer is actually the killer... Etzel - 29/05/2010 02:20:32 PM 974 Views
Please, RJ would do as he always had and immediately RAFOd a question like that darius_sedai - 29/05/2010 02:26:10 PM 933 Views
Well, I don't think so. Etzel - 29/05/2010 02:43:28 PM 948 Views
yet he never gave an answer like this one darius_sedai - 29/05/2010 02:57:35 PM 1031 Views

If Slayer never met Asmo in the books he could not have killed him darius_sedai - 06/06/2010 12:46:40 PM 838 Views
But Slayer could have met Asmo, when he was killed.. *NM* Etzel - 06/06/2010 01:06:01 PM 880 Views
Directly contradicts what RJ said "they did not meet in the books" darius_sedai - 06/06/2010 02:51:50 PM 849 Views
Not "before" the murder. *NM* Etzel - 06/06/2010 06:03:34 PM 921 Views

not if it didn't happen in the books darius_sedai - 07/06/2010 12:08:34 PM 772 Views

That's why I said "I think" and offered my opinion. TaskmasterJack - 01/06/2010 09:46:09 PM 899 Views
except the Author said it was a murder of opportunity darius_sedai - 01/06/2010 11:13:14 PM 913 Views
That is simply false. Etzel - 02/06/2010 10:00:27 AM 952 Views
RJ stated it was a murder of opportunity ... I never said "only" darius_sedai - 02/06/2010 11:49:23 AM 1020 Views
Of course, it is false Etzel - 02/06/2010 12:13:11 PM 939 Views
Here are the quotes darius_sedai - 02/06/2010 12:39:29 PM 877 Views
As said, those quotes simply don't support that the murder was basically just an unplanned accident. *NM* Etzel - 02/06/2010 02:14:29 PM 646 Views
I disagree. It's pretty much black and white that the opportunity/timing is the key factor to darius_sedai - 02/06/2010 02:39:03 PM 800 Views
Actually I like it because it fits Slayer better than Graendal, as pointed out. *NM* Etzel - 02/06/2010 02:51:24 PM 486 Views

As I explained you several times, I can see why RJ thought it is obvious, yes... Etzel - 07/06/2010 02:17:01 PM 903 Views

It's told after that... Etzel - 07/06/2010 04:46:31 PM 873 Views
No it doesn't. It tells us that Rahvin, just like all the others had a side plan in place darius_sedai - 07/06/2010 04:55:43 PM 1055 Views
