That's exactly what I was thinking the entire time. It didn't ruin my enjoyment though. Myrdhyn Send a noteboard - 22/09/2010 07:12:00 PM
What did ruin my enjoyment was thinking "Great, now I have to re-re-think my opinion on who killed Asmodean." Originally I thought it was Graendal, then I fell into the camp of "She's toast" so I changed my mind...now I'm thinking it was her again.

It's different (I think?) but I'm certainly no expert and I'm sure someone else will reply - 21/09/2010 06:57:18 PM 1714 Views
OK, I haven't read the scene, so I don't know if Arangar was holding saidin at the time or not - 21/09/2010 07:00:23 PM 1527 Views
Re: OK, I haven't read the scene, so I don't know if Arangar was holding saidin at the time or not. - 21/09/2010 07:11:42 PM 1633 Views
Thanks. Was Arangar channeling at the time? - 21/09/2010 07:13:53 PM 1619 Views
I think so, yes. - 21/09/2010 07:15:44 PM 1558 Views
I don't think so actually - 21/09/2010 07:57:42 PM 1647 Views
I don't think Aran'gar was channeling - 21/09/2010 11:00:22 PM 1609 Views
I don't think she even closed her Gateway. It think it was BF'd *NM* - 21/09/2010 11:52:01 PM 930 Views
no she wasn't *NM* - 21/09/2010 10:25:13 PM 1040 Views

Thanks. A few comments... - 21/09/2010 07:27:33 PM 1480 Views
I don't rule out the angreal... - 21/09/2010 07:32:40 PM 1516 Views
Elayne's weakest angreal doubles her strength. Graendal x2 can easily shield Cyndane+Moggy, so... - 21/09/2010 07:35:06 PM 1648 Views
Graendal's seemed much weaker... - 21/09/2010 07:52:20 PM 1517 Views
Elayne also called the x2 turtle angreal "weak"... - 21/09/2010 08:00:01 PM 1523 Views
and we know it wasn't enough to overwhlem Verin's circle - 21/09/2010 08:02:13 PM 1368 Views
I disasgree. There is no evidence that Aran'gar was holding saidin at the time - 21/09/2010 07:42:23 PM 1463 Views
Then why did she gasp at the shield? She couldn't have known what Graendal was weaving. - 21/09/2010 07:52:49 PM 1497 Views
because she was surprised that Graendal would put a shield on her in the first place - 21/09/2010 07:58:45 PM 1513 Views
How did she know there was a shield? - 21/09/2010 09:16:59 PM 1472 Views
Fact: Graendal cannot shield a male Forsaken and an Aes Sedai if they are holding the Source... - 21/09/2010 09:28:17 PM 1467 Views
Who said "they"? - 21/09/2010 09:55:28 PM 1442 Views
I really don't think you have to be holding the source to know you've been shielded - 21/09/2010 10:29:20 PM 1416 Views
Provide evidence? - 21/09/2010 10:36:36 PM 1467 Views
Thanks, but like I said, they were both wrapped in air. That's enough for Aran'gar to wonder - 21/09/2010 10:44:17 PM 1378 Views
They gasped before Graendal wove Air... - 21/09/2010 11:13:48 PM 1446 Views

Siuan was distracted by a number of other things going on, not to mention how suspect - 22/09/2010 02:43:36 PM 1363 Views
And Aran'gar was fully focussed on Graendal? - 22/09/2010 03:02:16 PM 1599 Views
More so than Siuan was on Elaida when they were shielded. - 22/09/2010 03:33:15 PM 2379 Views
So? - 22/09/2010 03:48:11 PM 1303 Views
It doesn't matter. There are more Shieldings that go unnoticed when not holding the Source - 22/09/2010 03:55:48 PM 1409 Views
Nice catches! - 22/09/2010 04:06:52 PM 1506 Views
we don't know that - 22/09/2010 02:35:50 PM 1445 Views
Huh? - 22/09/2010 03:03:52 PM 1385 Views
Give over, Darius... there's plenty of evidence... - 22/09/2010 03:45:11 PM 1434 Views
Give over what? There is no hard evidence that Aran'gar wouldn't notice a shield put on her - 22/09/2010 05:00:11 PM 1343 Views
What rot... (also, Egwene and Rand) - 22/09/2010 05:21:08 PM 1450 Views

She says... - 22/09/2010 07:04:32 PM 1483 Views
no one is arguing that - 22/09/2010 07:09:17 PM 1422 Views

Again, I just find that option completely unlikely since Graendals angreal isn't all that strong - 22/09/2010 07:39:02 PM 1435 Views
You've made a long list of channelers "incompetant" and "untrained". Enough. - 23/09/2010 01:53:25 AM 1519 Views

Sidious pointed it out, actually. But thanks! - 23/09/2010 03:55:29 PM 1422 Views

No. The sequence was shield-gasp-tie off shield-wrap in Air. *NM* - 21/09/2010 11:14:41 PM 1017 Views
