I thought they were just a transitional thing guttering flame Send a noteboard - 03/12/2010 07:13:17 AM
This was mentioned in the early books, along with Sniffers and the like. They're signs of the new age coming, they don't belong in the Third Age, nor in the Age of Legends, I think. So yes, the number of new Wolfsiblings wouldn't be too surprising.


Just like the amazing amounts of talents in Channeling that cropped up along the series. Every talent is needed to defeat the DO. But after the Last Battle is through they'll disappear again in favor of technology.

Wasn't dreaming and wolfbrothering the central talent of the age before the age of legend, aka the 1st age?

Egwene and the WIse Ones don't know the most basic thing about Teleranriod guttering flame - 02/12/2010 10:43:16 PM 1960 Views
IIRC Nicola was killed by a Black Ajah Sister and Egwene had tried to save her. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 02/12/2010 10:52:01 PM 1161 Views
Yes, I meant allowing her near the battle in the first place guttering flame - 03/12/2010 06:28:45 AM 765 Views
And who would enforce those rules? j-whitt987 - 03/12/2010 12:42:33 PM 882 Views
Also, I'm not sure how you could expect the Wise Ones to know that. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 03/12/2010 02:51:43 PM 757 Views
How do you figure? Fanatic-Templar - 02/12/2010 10:55:15 PM 964 Views
Re: How do you figure? malekithe - 02/12/2010 11:06:29 PM 1053 Views
may, being the operative word. LadyLorraine - 02/12/2010 11:12:49 PM 876 Views
except for the part of the soul that stays in the sleeping body, like they've explained many times. *NM* nigelgoboom - 02/12/2010 11:16:43 PM 420 Views
mmm fair point. maybe if you were there "too strongly"? LadyLorraine - 02/12/2010 11:18:50 PM 881 Views
right. but i dont think 'too strongly' ever means completely. maybe in the flesh or something *NM* nigelgoboom - 03/12/2010 01:24:38 AM 446 Views
This doesn't make a lot of sense guttering flame - 03/12/2010 06:37:02 AM 819 Views
They also told Perrin that about... j-whitt987 - 03/12/2010 12:55:57 AM 964 Views
yes, that is another confounding factor LadyLorraine - 03/12/2010 09:14:35 AM 821 Views
Oh, I see. Fanatic-Templar - 02/12/2010 11:45:37 PM 924 Views

He isn't a wolfbrother Timthetrolloc - 03/12/2010 05:43:06 AM 895 Views
Maybe he hadn't discovered it yet. Fanatic-Templar - 03/12/2010 06:21:22 AM 800 Views
He'd be a shadowbrother-brother guttering flame - 03/12/2010 06:51:59 AM 730 Views
You raise an interesting possibility guttering flame - 03/12/2010 06:44:18 AM 993 Views
Wolfbrothers are going to be part of the next age. Fanatic-Templar - 03/12/2010 07:05:30 AM 756 Views
I thought they were just a transitional thing guttering flame - 03/12/2010 07:13:17 AM 842 Views
I doubt it, that Age is ours. Fanatic-Templar - 03/12/2010 09:33:03 PM 756 Views
Uhm, TOTALLY. LadyLorraine - 03/12/2010 10:00:01 PM 715 Views
GASP! *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 04/12/2010 06:59:09 AM 493 Views
I know RJ said something guttering flame - 04/12/2010 06:15:51 AM 731 Views

Of course... DomA - 05/12/2010 08:21:05 PM 888 Views
If the first age is the Technological / Scientific Age guttering flame - 06/12/2010 06:33:18 AM 864 Views
I don't see why they would have to be unique themes. LadyLorraine - 06/12/2010 07:04:08 AM 795 Views
I don't even know why they're supposed to be mutually exclusive. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 06/12/2010 07:37:35 AM 417 Views
Re: I don't see why they would have to be unique themes. guttering flame - 06/12/2010 08:14:15 AM 778 Views
uhm, duh, stonehedge. LadyLorraine - 04/12/2010 07:11:44 PM 748 Views
No, because Heroes and Wolves are both different from run of the mill humans LadyLorraine - 03/12/2010 09:19:05 AM 863 Views
That's far from "the most basic" thing and it is entirely excusable that they do not know it. LadyLorraine - 02/12/2010 11:17:46 PM 926 Views
Re: That's far from "the most basic" thing and it is entirely excusable that they do not know it. DomA - 03/12/2010 02:42:39 AM 873 Views
It could be extrapolated from the fact that it's souls that inhabit it guttering flame - 03/12/2010 06:54:40 AM 803 Views
You're caving to bias from being outside the story with more information than any single character. LadyLorraine - 03/12/2010 09:13:12 AM 820 Views
Don't forget the Heroes guttering flame - 03/12/2010 09:34:43 AM 705 Views
I think that she meant that comment as more for the "hero" version Apsalar Shadowdancer - 03/12/2010 10:57:38 AM 761 Views
Maybe this should be a question for Sanderson? guttering flame - 03/12/2010 11:43:54 AM 774 Views
that's only because you're stubbornly holding to yours, despite everyone indicating its errors *NM* LadyLorraine - 03/12/2010 05:29:15 PM 489 Views
Obviously my tenacity indicates that I have a worthy point guttering flame - 03/12/2010 07:06:18 PM 590 Views
Perrin doesn't count since his information is from Hopper LadyLorraine - 03/12/2010 09:58:01 PM 790 Views
So it's my evidence against your non-evidence? guttering flame - 04/12/2010 06:05:41 AM 850 Views
why are you assuming that all souls are the same? LadyLorraine - 04/12/2010 07:18:10 PM 1060 Views
1. You're wrong. 2. Even if you're right, how would they know? beetnemesis - 03/12/2010 05:28:33 AM 1008 Views
Maybe, but I bet they can spell it. Joel - 03/12/2010 05:43:28 AM 837 Views
Incidentally, wouldn't that mean it is safer to go to Tel'aran'rhiod in the flesh? *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 03/12/2010 09:35:21 PM 417 Views
I'm more inclined to believe that being killed in the flesh in TAR darius_sedai - 04/12/2010 07:35:15 PM 705 Views
Where does that reasoning begin? Fanatic-Templar - 04/12/2010 07:53:42 PM 1271 Views
Perhaps it's more of a matter that the "usual route" may be altered? LadyLorraine - 04/12/2010 10:20:51 PM 683 Views
But human souls don't go to Tel'aran'rhiod, from what we know. Fanatic-Templar - 04/12/2010 11:19:53 PM 704 Views
maybe it does? LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 12:18:05 AM 1035 Views
So do we have any reason to believe this is the case? *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 05/12/2010 02:48:48 AM 402 Views
I don't think so. It's not really something that's discussed LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 03:19:37 AM 566 Views
I'm pondering too darius_sedai - 05/12/2010 03:04:10 PM 864 Views
Not @ all - if humans regularly go to TAR after they die, we'd have seen it already. Heroes would newyorkersedai - 04/12/2010 01:28:45 AM 882 Views
that would have been decidedly clever. *NM* LadyLorraine - 04/12/2010 07:18:52 PM 360 Views
