Wow... I'm sooo Insulted! fionwe1987 Send a noteboard - 28/10/2010 09:23:41 PM

Didn't kings and queens 'tremble in fear' when the Amyrlin Seat so much as snapped her finger?

Show me one that actually does. You're using village gossip and myth as fact here.

Wars were all over the map during her reign, because of the mess the Hall made of the responsibilities the Tower has. And even as those wars raged across the nations, the whole Tower didn't do a thing about it, untill they became fed up with the internal mess and bickering.

Yes. They failed to prevent wars. Which is what I said. What they didn't do is deliberately start wars to increase their power. The Whitecloaks did, in Amloth Plain and Altara.

In the end Chunla was murdered by her former colleagues.

Shocking! You mean that politics involves murders? Who would have thunk?

And farmers are, of course, treated the same as rebel officers and usurpers and mutineers. Cannoli - 23/10/2010 03:07:10 PM 956 Views
Re: The one known rapist was, by his own admission, committing a crime against their standards. moratcorlm - 21/10/2010 07:55:06 PM 985 Views
And there is no indication of how far that went. Cannoli - 23/10/2010 03:12:42 PM 848 Views
"The question" as opposed to "questioning" moratcorlm - 24/10/2010 06:21:43 PM 907 Views

The utter stupidity of this statement caught my eye... fionwe1987 - 24/10/2010 08:12:58 AM 885 Views
Your analyses and extension of concepts always brings that "utter stupidity" phrase to my mind. Cannoli - 25/10/2010 02:17:10 AM 1061 Views

Did you forget the very first PoV Darkfriend in the series? Cannoli - 23/10/2010 03:27:25 PM 976 Views
Difference being the whitecloaks who were ordered to do it were not DFs. All the AS evil deeds darius_sedai - 23/10/2010 07:55:23 PM 1002 Views
So similar scenes in the Cairhienin civil war were all the work of Darkfriends? Cannoli - 25/10/2010 02:25:57 AM 944 Views
Please provide an example of a DF AS committing an atrocity and not being punished by the Tower darius_sedai - 25/10/2010 03:34:46 AM 890 Views

No. I'm pointing out you are under the delusion that AS pay for their atrocities. Mik - 28/10/2010 09:16:38 AM 864 Views
okay, so AS never Still and execute AS for doing stuff ... have you read the series? darius_sedai - 28/10/2010 05:20:28 PM 888 Views
That doesn't make the -unpunished- atrocities disappear, you know. Your point is lame AND moot. Mik - 28/10/2010 07:07:27 PM 958 Views

Go look up the definition of the word atrocity darius_sedai - 25/10/2010 04:53:55 PM 890 Views
Their implicit role in the genocide of Manetheren was probable their greatest atrocity *NM* Knightscape - 26/10/2010 03:01:01 AM 557 Views
You mean the act that got Tetsuan deposed, Stilled and sentenced to hard labor until she gave up the darius_sedai - 26/10/2010 04:19:45 AM 1165 Views

the fact that you can't differentiate between the extermination of an entire village darius_sedai - 27/10/2010 08:30:12 PM 890 Views
READ; I *did* differentiate between them. It doesn't change the fact all are atrocious deeds Mik - 28/10/2010 09:00:56 AM 985 Views

dude, you gave us a list of petty crimes and compared it to mass murder darius_sedai - 28/10/2010 06:59:33 PM 878 Views
Complete the thought... fionwe1987 - 28/10/2010 07:11:37 PM 806 Views

Rape, murder, starting wars and doing noting about them, kidnap / severe torture of prisoners... *NM* Mik - 28/10/2010 07:51:33 PM 512 Views
again you fail to note that the AS have systems in place to prevent these things darius_sedai - 28/10/2010 08:23:32 PM 901 Views
Again you fail to note that the AS haven't used those "systems" of theirs Mik - 28/10/2010 09:02:15 PM 1094 Views
