+1 Lord Haart Send a noteboard - 29/12/2010 07:10:41 AM
At this stage, Egwene has (for better or worse) been written as a fairly detestable personality, despite having done some good for the Tower. If she is right, then I will give RJ the benefit of the doubt and take this as a statement that in life, sometimes complete shmucks are lucky enough to do things correctly.

The only thing I disagree about is Egwene losing power to Logain - I think it would be far more satisfying to see Logain set up as her equal, then see her learn some simple humility and realize that she isn't the Creator's gift to the world.

I think people aren't giving Egwene enough credit. LadyLorraine - 15/12/2010 04:59:09 AM 1254 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 1179 Views

That's a new one to me guttering flame - 20/12/2010 09:45:09 AM 1110 Views
Your theory is very unlikely guttering flame - 20/12/2010 09:50:26 AM 1122 Views
If it was a plant, why would it be so oblique? Lord Haart - 29/12/2010 07:22:58 AM 975 Views

That's not true. Chas - 21/12/2010 02:22:50 AM 1256 Views
Sadly, the thing you reference four times isn't actually anywhere in the book. Joel - 29/12/2010 03:17:15 AM 1246 Views

I think the Tower needs a singular leader, though you may be right. Joel - 29/12/2010 12:51:19 PM 1139 Views
Don't take this the wrong way, but I think I love you. (edited) lilltempest - 29/12/2010 06:43:32 PM 1392 Views
Ah, if only I could sell the concept of sister-wives.... Joel - 29/12/2010 07:09:56 PM 1056 Views

Dear lord, you wrote the Egwene haters' ultimate fantasy right there newyorkersedai - 19/12/2010 01:41:55 AM 1124 Views
Don't think of use as Egwene haters... Lord Haart - 19/12/2010 04:32:11 AM 1077 Views
One problematic issue...This assumes the Dark One cannot hold himself back once the Seals are broken Shannow - 15/12/2010 07:57:53 AM 1258 Views
Err, it's the other way around guttering flame - 15/12/2010 09:00:38 AM 1187 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 1264 Views
Don't you know it's all about the posturing guttering flame - 15/12/2010 09:40:15 AM 1227 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 1234 Views
It's more that you take it out of context DomA - 15/12/2010 11:32:36 AM 1237 Views
So then... Shannow - 15/12/2010 06:35:02 PM 1212 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 1152 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 1017 Views
I don't see why Egwene would oppose his plan guttering flame - 15/12/2010 06:17:47 PM 1039 Views
I don't think that's the issue. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/12/2010 07:31:03 PM 1103 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 1161 Views
Egwene's dream seems a little more personal than that Lord Haart - 18/12/2010 04:55:37 AM 1003 Views
Yes moratcorlm - 18/12/2010 07:57:35 AM 1034 Views
Actually, I think Tuon will capture her, and then release her. *NM* Lord Haart - 18/12/2010 02:47:42 PM 557 Views

That's just it: Egwene is not only wrong, she's narratively wrong. Joel - 19/12/2010 11:30:35 PM 1480 Views
Man, that's the best take on Egwene I have ever read. Chas - 20/12/2010 12:38:07 AM 1070 Views

You may be onto something there. Joel - 20/12/2010 01:35:46 AM 1094 Views

Re: Wish I'd read this sooner, 'cos I agree on several points. Lord Haart - 29/12/2010 07:32:49 AM 1066 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 1104 Views
Ensure this value has at most 100 characters (it has 101). Lord Haart - 29/12/2010 03:00:22 PM 2819 Views
Ah, good point; Rand might have to do the job himself. Joel - 29/12/2010 06:43:44 PM 1065 Views
More likely to be Flinn. Lohikaarme - 29/12/2010 08:18:19 PM 1088 Views
Maybe, once he knows the signs and techniques. Joel - 30/12/2010 03:10:27 PM 1083 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 1038 Views
Good point, too. Joel - 30/12/2010 03:17:06 PM 1024 Views
He was holding the gateway open. *NM* moratcorlm - 30/12/2010 04:27:25 PM 534 Views
Thanks, had forgotten that. Joel - 31/12/2010 04:43:25 AM 1015 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 1116 Views
