Re: She has a pretty powerful weapon... fionwe1987 Send a noteboard - 20/12/2010 09:55:03 AM
The Dreamer had no interpretation. She simply remembered it during their meeting; maybe that was the correct allusion; maybe it's not. What matters is whether Egwene's Oath will let her say that with surety.

What are you talking about here? Egwene got the meaning her Dream when she met Rand. She has done that before, getting the meaning of a Dream well after having seen it.

Why? They owe fealty to Rand.

But they all think his plan is crazy. Opposing his plan doesn't mean betraying him.

Now, I suspect you're right in part; Egwene and Tuon will confront Rand directly, and Rand is certainly wrong. But Egwene, of course, is wrong as well, and I don't really see why you deny that. I find it improbable that Jordan would have constructed her as a complete Mary Sue.

What's Mary sue about it? She has a Dream, she acts on it.

Egwene, a poor leader? redhand - 16/12/2010 05:59:15 PM 2224 Views
Egwene isn't supposed to be a leader. She's a dictator and a politician. lilltempest - 16/12/2010 08:21:13 PM 1392 Views

If the Shadow had removed Elaida so Egwene was Amyrlin whilst Rand was still Dark ... ajfurst - 16/12/2010 11:56:08 PM 1026 Views
Same thing if Elaida was in charge when meeting w/ Dark Rand. *NM* Lord Haart - 17/12/2010 02:10:20 AM 533 Views

I would say that in the grand scheme of things, Rand's had good to balance out the bad. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 20/12/2010 06:27:35 PM 957 Views
