And I also made the point that damane don't have sisters. If you brainwash yourself a good damane you're going to implement them the belief that they're property with no ties to anyone. They have to see themselves as the leashed slaves whose goal in life is to obey. The idea of sisterhood seems far-fetched when all you are is a pet or a tool.
That is the way it is being done now. But this method is not written in stone. There is no reason that the Seanchan could not use a special form of brainwashing only on captured AS that made them see other Seanchan as "sisters" and thereby mostly avoid the oath against killing
I bet any Seanchan would be enraged if a damane dared claim they're family. It would feel as if Jeffrey Dahmer was humping your leg and telling you that he's your uncle.
It's not like they would need to do it to every damane, or for that matter believe it themselves. All they would have to do is make the AS-damane believe it. Whether they would be willing to do it is ofcourse up for debate, but it would allow them to use captured AS as weapons so its not beyond doubt.
What was the original topic about, btw..Oh, Aes Sedai fighting Damane. Well, this could still be way more off-topic.
Not that uncommon for things to go off-topic I have noticed. Atleast we are still mostly on the Seanchan vs Aes Sedai thing.
