Cool character but has major flaws randfandom Send a noteboard - 19/07/2010 06:22:15 AM
She is a better ruler than most of those on the Randland side of the ocean.


That is true, which just goes to show what a poor set of incompetents they most are.

She is willing to revise her pre-conceived notions.


Really? To me she seems the most rigid and uncompromising of them all. After spending weeks in the company of Aes Sedai and finding the truth about the Sul'dam, she still believes that channeling women should be enslaved for life, with no purpose, family or even clothes to their name. She still views treating people as property perfectly valid. She still believes she has a God given right to attack women who never hurt her in order to murder or preferably enslave them. And she is still convinced that the Dragon Reborn needs to be a slave to her as well.

No matter the evidence, she refuses to listen or accept it.

I agree she is a tough, intelligent person, with a strong sense of justice and leadership skills, but her blindness to anything that contradicts the customs and beliefs of her country makes her for a figure to only encourage strife and division. I am looking forward to her putdown (bound to happen, based on the Prophecies).
