so it's not possible for anything that has never been done in the series to happen... ok darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 14/07/2010 02:38:08 PM
I argue that this Graendal flashback theory is ridiculous if she died in TGS, because something like this never happened in the series (namely that a dead character got a flashback in the next book; other characters just think about the dead character). No one argued this after Sammael's or Osan'gar's death, because it's obviously absurd. Graendal would have gotten another PoV in TGS if it were needed. Apparently a few people just think it will be differently in Graendal's case, because RJ said that Asmo's killer will most likely reveal it in his or her PoV.


Believe as you like, I'm not going to make this a debate about who killed Asmodean. Regardless of that issue, there is nothing in BSand's quote saying there will be NO flashbacks, only that Rand is up to date as is Egwene. Graendal was involved with several plot lines and any of those could easily be behind Rand/Egwene in ToM. Aran'gar has not been heard from at the very least.

how do you get there from this? - 12/07/2010 05:47:42 PM 955 Views
Right. There could easily be a scene like this: - 12/07/2010 06:22:45 PM 885 Views
Because... - 12/07/2010 10:40:29 PM 913 Views
You're brilliant, Etzel, but Brandon is NOT robert jordan - 13/07/2010 01:18:44 AM 857 Views
He said it won't be 100% flashback like book 10 - 13/07/2010 05:30:18 AM 768 Views
But obviously not for the timelines, which are up to date. - 13/07/2010 08:41:37 AM 876 Views
the only reason you say this is because you think it makes Slayer - 14/07/2010 02:39:52 AM 853 Views

Again, there is no sensible reason for a scene where Graendal is shown again before her death. *NM* - 14/07/2010 04:47:21 PM 698 Views
sure there is ... to tell us she killed Asmo - 14/07/2010 04:56:09 PM 908 Views
Again... - 15/07/2010 08:57:34 AM 665 Views
or it could as easily be a scene from Aran'gar's POV that includes Graendal - 15/07/2010 01:36:21 PM 826 Views
The point is... - 15/07/2010 01:55:43 PM 753 Views
that is 100% your interpretation - 15/07/2010 02:51:49 PM 770 Views
Noal was involved with Ishy; a connection to Graendal is pure speculation. - 15/07/2010 03:19:38 PM 706 Views
I'm pointing out that she had more than just Rands plot line - 15/07/2010 03:59:36 PM 680 Views
As far as we know... - 15/07/2010 04:06:56 PM 733 Views
she also knows what Cyndane and Moghedien are up to and may be involved - 16/07/2010 01:58:36 PM 900 Views
There is nothing to support your view, that Graendal was directly involved in any other plotlines... - 16/07/2010 02:31:01 PM 658 Views
She doesn't have to be in order to make an appearance in them - 16/07/2010 03:26:44 PM 794 Views
We will see... *NM* - 16/07/2010 03:36:21 PM 985 Views
Indeed - 13/07/2010 08:49:43 AM 696 Views
The "flashbacks" are obviously related to those characters, which aren't up to date yet... - 13/07/2010 09:14:04 AM 905 Views

It's completely unlikely and unnecessary - 13/07/2010 10:25:36 AM 891 Views
you keep trotting this point out like it matters - 14/07/2010 09:07:36 PM 783 Views
a very irritating habit indeed!! - 15/07/2010 05:29:19 AM 881 Views
There is no indication that Graendal & Aran'gar did anything, except for exchanging infos! - 15/07/2010 09:01:58 AM 705 Views
where do you get this stuff from? - 15/07/2010 01:41:07 PM 920 Views
Eh, no - 15/07/2010 02:08:56 PM 776 Views
I disagree - 15/07/2010 02:56:02 PM 743 Views
Graendal actually tells that she learned interesting things from Aran'gar - 15/07/2010 03:14:54 PM 866 Views
pure interpretation - 15/07/2010 04:00:31 PM 800 Views
Well, it fits RJ's theme that the bad guys actually aren't that competent. *NM* - 15/07/2010 04:12:19 PM 863 Views
No really since it would make Aran'gar look pretty competent *NM* - 16/07/2010 03:27:40 PM 351 Views
Aran'gar just had the luck that Rand wasn't after her - 16/07/2010 03:34:53 PM 590 Views
Exchanging info is not doing nothing - 15/07/2010 06:54:17 PM 714 Views

Good, then we agree, if you consider it unlikely as well. *NM* - 16/07/2010 05:56:50 PM 908 Views
Trust me, Graendal won't be seen; only her name will be mentioned a few times (as BS said). *NM* - 15/07/2010 09:03:33 AM 791 Views
You should really just write it for BS since you clearly know exactly what's going to happen - 15/07/2010 02:57:59 PM 784 Views
Ok... - 15/07/2010 03:17:02 PM 696 Views
When did I say there would be a Graendal POV? - 15/07/2010 04:03:54 PM 787 Views

I wonder if their big role means Rand and Eg will get more chapters than first thought. *NM* - 12/07/2010 05:27:44 PM 816 Views
Yeah, seems so. *NM* - 13/07/2010 12:19:53 PM 782 Views
