Re: By that definition, is there any such thing as freedom? Fanatic-Templar Send a noteboard - 09/12/2010 06:39:16 PM
Oh, stop being so melodramatic. This is not an action movie; there is no emotional swell in the music when you cry "Freedom!"


What the hell? That was completely random.

Da'covale can own things.


Everything a slave has is the property of the slave's owner. This is the entire point with damane not even owning a name, or clothes, incidentally.

It's specifically mentioned in the books that peasants had no legal standing in Tear or Cairhien before Rand imposed a new justice system on them. Whether da'covale have legal standing is an interesting question; I certainly would find it odd if none of them did.


Dude, I'm talking about reality. Incidentally, I expect those peasants had legal standing, the law simply allowed nobles to do whatever they wished.
