Shadow invading Kandor and Lan riding trough it. CONNECTION?
4th Dimension Send a noteboard - 22/09/2010 08:36:05 PM
From the last Pov we glean that the Shadow's assault has begun. The POV is set in Kandor. We also know that Lan is trying to go unnoticed by going close to the blight, and is in Kandor.
Might this invasion stop, and force him to confront the Shadow invasion in Kandor, thus forcing him to go out of hiding. And there is that convenient group that is gathering in Kandorian capital.

I disasgree. There is no evidence that Aran'gar was holding saidin at the time

Then why did she gasp at the shield? She couldn't have known what Graendal was weaving.
21/09/2010 07:52:49 PM

because she was surprised that Graendal would put a shield on her in the first place

Depends on the level of surprise, I guess. If he was only holding a trickle of saidin, then maybe

I really don't think you have to be holding the source to know you've been shielded

It doesn't matter. There are more Shieldings that go unnoticed when not holding the Source
