I think I know what they're going to talk about... fionwe1987 Send a noteboard - 01/10/2010 05:52:33 PM
So, chapter one is out, and I'm enormously pleased with the way it went.

Clearly, the "new" Rand is not a rehash of the bland Rand of EotW. And clearly, he's going to go talk to Egwene now.

But what about? Clearly, he doesn't expect her to be happy. It also looks like he at least knows she's in Tar Valon, or near it.

But he doesn't know how much she has changed, and she doesn't know how much he has changed.

I have a vague feeling neither is going to be as distressed at what the other has to say as they may imagine, though I do expect there to be disagreement.

Basically, I think Rand intends to tell Egwene she needs to get the Tower united. Which she has done already.

He may also tell her that the Seanchan have to be left alone for now. I think this is the part he anticipates her to dislike hearing. Maybe that'll happen, maybe not.

For her part, I think Egwene will have issues with the Black Tower and Taim.

Either way, it should be great to see them both together again after they've both changed so much.

Thoughts?

I think her realizes now who Egwene really is LoialT - 01/10/2010 10:02:16 PM 797 Views
Pretty much - Egwene always wants to pin the blame on someone else; she won't appreciate correction Cannoli - 02/10/2010 08:30:02 PM 707 Views
Do you really think he'll tell her to back off the Seanchan? darius_sedai - 02/10/2010 09:33:06 PM 607 Views
We can hope. Cannoli - 02/10/2010 09:48:26 PM 646 Views
She'd be pissed just like everyone else in the series. darius_sedai - 03/10/2010 12:52:58 AM 637 Views
She has no reason to be pissed about being asked to follow Rand - but that won't stop her of course. ajfurst - 03/10/2010 12:57:48 PM 610 Views
So you would be fine if the leader of your country simply decided one day to follow someone else in darius_sedai - 03/10/2010 04:00:27 PM 590 Views
I'll bet Eggy gets ta'veren'd *NM* mogi67 - 05/10/2010 06:19:40 AM 246 Views
that would ruin her character just as much as it would have ruined Tuon's *NM* Deadsy - 05/10/2010 06:34:09 AM 245 Views
agreed darius_sedai - 05/10/2010 04:29:03 PM 505 Views
Maybe because they leash female channelers and practice chattel slavery? Rurouni_Kenshin - 05/10/2010 03:29:31 PM 660 Views
Yeah, a 50 year threat of nuclear war is so much better than an army that couldn't cross the Channel Cannoli - 06/10/2010 03:52:49 AM 691 Views
almost certainly Jim - 05/10/2010 04:26:43 AM 542 Views
Yes, but Tuon is now the aggressor darius_sedai - 05/10/2010 04:35:17 PM 560 Views
Calling her the agressor does not increase the threat. The situation is unchanged Cannoli - 07/10/2010 06:35:15 PM 598 Views
you know all those prophecies that say he will "bind the 9 moons to him"? darius_sedai - 07/10/2010 07:04:50 PM 553 Views
I ask again, what evidence is there of their corruption? Cannoli - 08/10/2010 01:56:49 AM 660 Views
We'll all find out soon enough about the truth of the prophecies. I admit that any of these options darius_sedai - 08/10/2010 02:47:10 AM 493 Views
that's why she won't like hearing it Jim - 07/10/2010 07:19:29 PM 547 Views
I'm not convinced he will at this point is what I'm saying darius_sedai - 07/10/2010 07:59:03 PM 634 Views
the Rand in chapter one seems likely to preach love not war Jim - 08/10/2010 05:32:21 AM 602 Views
They are on the offensive is the point. Even if Rand says not to attack them to Egwene darius_sedai - 08/10/2010 01:45:49 PM 539 Views
