My Rand will fake his death-theory was posted at the WoTmania Theory Post (which is gone now). Unfortunately, I didn't seem to have it anymore.

Basically, the main clues are that the Aelfinn's answers are riddles, which Rand has to figure out, and don't have to be taken literally. Then we also have Egwene's Dream of Logain stepping about a paper puppet of Rand, which strongly speaks for this idea. The same applies to the wording that Alivia won't kill Rand but will help him to die. Besides that, there are some links to legends of our time, where the hero fakes his death or is supposed to be dead while he actually is still alive.

I just don't see that as Nynaeve's "area of expertise" - 13/10/2010 10:09:39 PM 759 Views
Nynaeve was the one who witnessed the weave, not Egwene. - 14/10/2010 12:38:14 AM 743 Views

There's also the "ripped from TAR after death" theory, ala Birgitte (re how Rand lives again). - 12/10/2010 04:37:26 PM 812 Views
That be my theory - 12/10/2010 04:45:55 PM 842 Views
and from all other people - 12/10/2010 05:33:45 PM 939 Views
And your point is? *NM* - 12/10/2010 05:35:35 PM 358 Views
It's not specifically your theory. or a theory that you thought of first..... *NM* - 13/10/2010 04:32:48 PM 353 Views
Nobody said I thought of it first. - 13/10/2010 04:36:45 PM 673 Views

It's the truth. - 13/10/2010 06:29:56 PM 692 Views
Think of it this way, Emma... - 13/10/2010 06:00:11 PM 801 Views

You could at least try not to contradict yourself. - 13/10/2010 06:29:11 PM 662 Views
Me being childish? - 13/10/2010 06:52:24 PM 715 Views
Some more thoughts ... - 12/10/2010 05:03:58 PM 839 Views
I don't think it is necessary that Rand be a public figure as Elayne's husband. - 12/10/2010 05:08:10 PM 715 Views
It's not that I think it's necessary, per se ... - 12/10/2010 05:44:03 PM 828 Views
On that particular point... - 12/10/2010 06:05:59 PM 813 Views
That's reasonable speculation, I think ... - 12/10/2010 07:58:23 PM 741 Views
I don't know that Egwene's lack of recognition necessarily means anything... - 12/10/2010 08:07:11 PM 648 Views
Yep, I agree ... - 12/10/2010 09:18:57 PM 728 Views
By the way ... - 12/10/2010 10:07:49 PM 653 Views
But that is not the only prophecy of Rand's death. - 12/10/2010 10:13:50 PM 655 Views
Just playing devil's advocate here ... - 12/10/2010 10:58:40 PM 809 Views
That raises an interesting question: - 13/10/2010 04:01:17 PM 740 Views

Switching bodies with Logain is mine. *NM* - 13/10/2010 05:03:43 AM 380 Views
Are we doing that now? I call dibs on Be'laim. - 14/10/2010 04:32:59 PM 803 Views
Body swap or Nynaeve heal seem the best bets to me. - 14/10/2010 04:42:16 PM 729 Views
