So what almost happened to Perrin during the chaos of the battle that involved Whitecloaks? Why, Byar attempting to kill him from behind, of course!

In the chaos of the battle, there was nothing Perrin could have done. He was taken totally by surprise. If not for Dain Bornhald (likely the "cursed Whitecloak", Perrin would have died, just as Graendal planned.

That the asset is Byar also fits the fact that he was near Arad Doman early in the series. We always assumed his talk of Perrin killing Geofram was his typical Whitecloak attitude of guilt before proof. But doesn't it seem like the kind of cubtle compulsion Graendal would use, and the way she uses him fits her MO of having multiple plans in motion all the time.


Byar has always been a DF. There are DFs among The Children. Don't know if building an actual parrallel to the BA was a concious intention of RJ's that he just never fleshed out, or if it just sort of built itself; but they are there.

I thibelieve, though Perrin doesn't seem to realize it yet, he can smell the DO's taint, just as Rand can now see it. Go back the TEotW and read about their first encounter. Throughout the series Perrin has been encountering this "burning" smell on some people and places. Every time it has been DO taint.

It allowed an idiotic plot twist. - 11/11/2010 12:17:24 PM 1309 Views
I don't understand protests like this - 11/11/2010 05:33:12 PM 884 Views
Because we are told that this was her plot, but we are never shown. - 11/11/2010 07:09:48 PM 956 Views
She knew success was critical yet didn't step in at all? - 11/11/2010 10:40:26 PM 830 Views
She didn't even send in her channeler. - 12/11/2010 02:35:02 AM 810 Views
Yeah, but her plan was so lame it kinda ruined her character - 13/11/2010 08:26:34 PM 767 Views
Why having other Forsaken at all? Slayer and Moridin should've been enough. *NM* - 11/11/2010 11:33:04 PM 457 Views
Exactly. *NM* - 12/11/2010 02:35:34 AM 375 Views
She might be the Tower that crumbles and regrows - 12/11/2010 03:48:13 AM 815 Views
That pretty much assuredly refers to Moridin. - 12/11/2010 03:55:48 AM 768 Views
Aren't dreams about the future? Moridin's death and rise have already happened. *NM* - 12/11/2010 04:10:34 AM 405 Views

They are.... - 13/11/2010 02:32:26 PM 813 Views
No, sorry. - 14/11/2010 12:45:33 AM 861 Views
The point of Graendal's survival was ... - 13/11/2010 02:30:38 AM 823 Views
Sadly, I agree with you. - 16/11/2010 06:09:49 AM 878 Views
