Re: Hmm Lordling Send a noteboard - 30/06/2010 06:02:22 PM
Egwene's stated goal is to tie all channelers to the tower, do you not think she would at least start this process with those who already are supposed to be a part of it?

Every single Aes Sedai KNOWS that the Tower is the most important thing in the world. They shouldn't, but they do. I cannot believe that you are seriously saying that those who didn't actively participate in the conflict need to be (re)tied to the Tower. Merise? Corele? The sister with the BL army? They're Aes Sedai and as such can do as they damn well please. The only slightly unlawful thing they have done was not obeying Elaida's summons to the Tower. Eggy may be miffed that they didn't want to choose sides, but she'll have to suck it up.

I surely can't influence the sequence of events that Jordan envisioned, but I do see more of a need for Cadsuane's character in the tower than I do with Rand, where she has already achieved her goal of laughter and tears.

The final goal is to make sure Rand succeeds. "Laughter and tears" was just a pit stop. Cadsuane knows things about the Prophecies that no one else seems to. She was the one who knew that Callandor was flawed. And she should just forget all that and go to the Tower?

In the Seanchan attack, the green ajah learned that despite their stated mission, they really aren't that effective at it. They need a leader that is experienced and non-politically motivated. Cadsuane's abrasiveness, her intelligence, her legendary image, her experience, and even her various ter'angreal would make her an ideal candidate for such a role.

We've been given a very positive image of Adelorna, from Egwene in KoD, for example. Egwene complimented her courage in tGS. She was AS who gave us the image that the WT sucked in defending itself. And you're saying that she should be cast aside NOW?

It seems very likely if she's still with Rand when he "knows the Amyrlin's anger." *NM* RandAllThor - 30/06/2010 01:30:57 AM 321 Views

I don't understand you, at all. You're speaking nonsense. callandor1000 - 30/06/2010 04:53:11 AM 952 Views
true, Cadsuane is one of my favorite characters *NM* car'a'aman - 30/06/2010 08:21:31 AM 349 Views

I don't particularly like Cadsuane either ... but she's done quite a few smart things... darius_sedai - 30/06/2010 04:11:55 PM 713 Views
She's also actually accomplised things in her life as well, unlike most Aes Sedai. Rurouni_Kenshin - 01/07/2010 04:04:40 AM 761 Views
well she did have advantages with her ornaments darius_sedai - 01/07/2010 04:04:58 PM 874 Views
I'm in the pro-Casuane camp. And there is lots of room! The Angry Druid - 01/07/2010 11:40:44 PM 768 Views

Age means nothing to Egwene BlackAdder - 30/06/2010 01:15:06 PM 730 Views
ya, but to none with her age and her strength of character. car'a'aman - 30/06/2010 04:13:50 PM 659 Views
Saerin is nearly as old as Cadsuane as are a few of the other darius_sedai - 30/06/2010 05:39:28 PM 683 Views
Not really. Cadsuane's ability to boss people around extends only to BlackAdder - 30/06/2010 05:54:45 PM 632 Views

you are probably right...but it doesn't stop me from hoping though. *NM* car'a'aman - 30/06/2010 04:11:37 PM 317 Views
I doubt that Cadsuane would be very intimidated by Egwene... *NM* Etzel - 30/06/2010 10:00:17 AM 336 Views
I doubt that Egwene would be very intimidated by Cadsuane ... darius_sedai - 30/06/2010 04:01:12 PM 704 Views
I think Egwene might be awed... Etzel - 01/07/2010 09:12:26 AM 711 Views
I actually don't think Egwene knows who Cadsuane is. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 01/07/2010 01:20:15 PM 633 Views
You are probably correct darius_sedai - 01/07/2010 04:11:14 PM 584 Views
Actually, she does know... fionwe1987 - 01/07/2010 04:29:58 PM 586 Views
Re: Actually, she does know... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 02/07/2010 04:48:25 PM 608 Views
I very much doubt it darius_sedai - 01/07/2010 04:09:06 PM 615 Views
Cadsuane's "special" personality would certainly do the rest to impress Egwene very much.. *NM* Etzel - 01/07/2010 04:38:41 PM 627 Views
I don't find her any more intimidating than Romanda or Lelaine *NM* Sidious - 01/07/2010 05:56:59 PM 545 Views
That I don't agree with... fionwe1987 - 01/07/2010 06:27:33 PM 584 Views
Cadsuane is definitely more able Sidious - 01/07/2010 06:35:07 PM 654 Views
And thus more intimidating... fionwe1987 - 01/07/2010 06:55:52 PM 691 Views

Frankly, I think it will be like the first meeting of Cadsuane and Amys... fionwe1987 - 01/07/2010 04:38:17 PM 667 Views
I agree. I don't see any conflict arising between them. *NM* Deadsy - 02/07/2010 05:39:15 AM 317 Views
It would be like Shadar Logoth meeting the Shadow Knightscape - 30/06/2010 11:49:01 AM 662 Views

Hmm Demortae - 30/06/2010 05:17:02 PM 674 Views
I think there is a major reason she stays out of the Tower darius_sedai - 30/06/2010 05:29:53 PM 682 Views
Re: Hmm Lordling - 30/06/2010 06:02:22 PM 750 Views
I would like to see Caddy put Egwene in a headlock and make her cry...and suckerpunch Elayne, too... *NM* The Count - 02/07/2010 12:40:24 AM 304 Views
