Err, it's the other way around guttering flame Send a noteboard - 15/12/2010 09:00:38 AM
Breaking the Seals is not about letting the DO free to wreak havoc, it's about clearing 'the rubble' away so Rand can rebuild his prison.

The DO is doing his best to do as much damage as he can before Rand makes his move because if the pattern is damaged enough Rand won't have the tools to rebuild the prison properly.

I think people aren't giving Egwene enough credit. LadyLorraine - 15/12/2010 04:59:09 AM 1344 Views
She's not bringing everyone for a discussion, but for leverage to force him to change his mind. Joel - 19/12/2010 09:54:49 PM 1262 Views

That's a new one to me guttering flame - 20/12/2010 09:45:09 AM 1209 Views
Your theory is very unlikely guttering flame - 20/12/2010 09:50:26 AM 1214 Views
If it was a plant, why would it be so oblique? Lord Haart - 29/12/2010 07:22:58 AM 1064 Views

That's not true. Chas - 21/12/2010 02:22:50 AM 1348 Views
Sadly, the thing you reference four times isn't actually anywhere in the book. Joel - 29/12/2010 03:17:15 AM 1337 Views

I think the Tower needs a singular leader, though you may be right. Joel - 29/12/2010 12:51:19 PM 1228 Views
Don't take this the wrong way, but I think I love you. (edited) lilltempest - 29/12/2010 06:43:32 PM 1481 Views

Dear lord, you wrote the Egwene haters' ultimate fantasy right there newyorkersedai - 19/12/2010 01:41:55 AM 1215 Views
Don't think of use as Egwene haters... Lord Haart - 19/12/2010 04:32:11 AM 1175 Views

Err, it's the other way around guttering flame - 15/12/2010 09:00:38 AM 1273 Views
I see. It's the same thing, really, just looking at it from the opposite perspective... Shannow - 15/12/2010 09:14:22 AM 1351 Views
Don't you know it's all about the posturing guttering flame - 15/12/2010 09:40:15 AM 1322 Views
agreed, it'd also be a terribly boring book to read if the DO was defensive Iceman - 15/12/2010 09:56:37 AM 1319 Views
It's more that you take it out of context DomA - 15/12/2010 11:32:36 AM 1328 Views
So then... Shannow - 15/12/2010 06:35:02 PM 1306 Views

The DO will be forced to act because breaking the seals is inherently an attempt to seal the bore... Onarishma - 15/12/2010 08:51:38 PM 1238 Views

While I agree overall, I think this is a case where Rand/TDR mistakes his role RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/12/2010 05:37:25 PM 1115 Views
I don't see why Egwene would oppose his plan guttering flame - 15/12/2010 06:17:47 PM 1125 Views
I don't think that's the issue. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/12/2010 07:31:03 PM 1193 Views
I think Egwene is successful and Rand has to go to the Seanchan for female channeler assistance Logain - 18/12/2010 12:47:54 AM 1245 Views
Egwene's dream seems a little more personal than that Lord Haart - 18/12/2010 04:55:37 AM 1095 Views
Yes moratcorlm - 18/12/2010 07:57:35 AM 1116 Views
Actually, I think Tuon will capture her, and then release her. *NM* Lord Haart - 18/12/2010 02:47:42 PM 595 Views

That's just it: Egwene is not only wrong, she's narratively wrong. Joel - 19/12/2010 11:30:35 PM 1558 Views
Man, that's the best take on Egwene I have ever read. Chas - 20/12/2010 12:38:07 AM 1152 Views

It seems an odd oversight, yes; I can't even recall her being Delved when the truth was revealed. Joel - 29/12/2010 12:40:00 PM 1196 Views
Ensure this value has at most 100 characters (it has 101). Lord Haart - 29/12/2010 03:00:22 PM 2911 Views
Ah, good point; Rand might have to do the job himself. Joel - 29/12/2010 06:43:44 PM 1157 Views
More likely to be Flinn. Lohikaarme - 29/12/2010 08:18:19 PM 1178 Views
Maybe, once he knows the signs and techniques. Joel - 30/12/2010 03:10:27 PM 1183 Views
Not sure if Rand had seized the source yet - he wouldn't have wanted to do it in front of Ramshalan Lord Haart - 30/12/2010 03:15:43 PM 1116 Views
Good point, too. Joel - 30/12/2010 03:17:06 PM 1104 Views
He was holding the gateway open. *NM* moratcorlm - 30/12/2010 04:27:25 PM 578 Views
Thanks, had forgotten that. Joel - 31/12/2010 04:43:25 AM 1102 Views
Not only must I agree with you, but I think you've divined Egwenes ultimate destiny. Joel - 29/12/2010 03:41:59 AM 1212 Views
