Its way too specific for that... fionwe1987 Send a noteboard - 18/09/2010 04:16:31 AM

It think the fact that basically confirms there's nothing wrong with the timeline and the rumour is just a rumour among many others about the Tower (and false at this point) is the very important missing bit that is as much if not more "shocking", and that Teslyn (not to mention Mat) would have made a huge point about if she heard it: before reunification, the Tower faced a major attack from the Seanchan. When that events happen, tons and tons of pigeons from merchants and such in Tar Valon will fly to other cities with that news, and if Mat heard that, he'd swallowed his hat (that's his wife who attacked the Tower!!! Mat doesn't fully realize how committed Tuon is against Egwene, and Rand - and in how much of a political nightmare he's caught with his divided allegiances...).

Are you forgetting the rumor that flying monsters attacked the White Tower and that the Amyrlin fought the last battle in Rand's place? That seems to refer to Egwene fighting the to'raken in tGS. Word must have spread in Tar Valon of the legendary Amyrlin who destroyed the Black Ajah and fought the Seanchan Darkfriends with the support of novices, and that she had a shining magical object in her hand.

Mat noted it, but said it could be the result of reports about raken from the south. But most raken have been in Arad Doman for a long time. They came to Ebou Dar and were soon sent to attack Tar Valon, which means this latest rumor could only be the result of what happened with Egwene in tGS.

Disagree. Mat is still off. Can't really point out why... - 17/09/2010 05:12:55 PM 749 Views
He was just slightly off. Much, much closer than TGS though. - 17/09/2010 05:19:07 PM 744 Views
