Not necessarily. Myrdhyn Send a noteboard - 05/01/2011 09:26:49 PM
We know for sure that Mat's medallion came from the 'Finns. We also know a few other things:

1) The OP has existed/been used in other ages besides the AOL and 3rd age (portal stones prove this IMO)

2) The Finns collect objects of power and dole them out as they see fit/according to their bargains.

With the above in mind:

-Mat's medallion could easily pre-date the AOL, and I don't even think that's a stretch to say TBH.

-It's far more of a stretch, but not impossible, that Cad's ornaments also pre-date the AOL. Simple example of how would be desperate breaking-era channlers making deals/requests of the Finns for anything to help them.

How did Cyndane defeat Alivia? malekithe - 31/12/2010 08:03:39 PM 3579 Views
As RJ said, Cyndane knows a LOT more about the OP darius_sedai - 31/12/2010 08:33:47 PM 1653 Views

RJ said this .. Go look at his quotes *NM* darius_sedai - 01/01/2011 05:59:37 AM 879 Views

Dude, he calls it out specifically. Cyndane beat Alivia because of her skill darius_sedai - 01/01/2011 03:22:48 PM 1255 Views
Search for "Alivia" moratcorlm - 01/01/2011 05:58:53 PM 1186 Views
nothing on either url *NM* malekithe - 01/01/2011 11:02:05 PM 546 Views
Try spelling it correctly then moratcorlm - 02/01/2011 01:30:23 AM 1135 Views
I did, maybe you made the mistake malekithe - 02/01/2011 07:13:54 PM 960 Views

Here are few other quotes establishing how little Alivia knows of the OP darius_sedai - 02/01/2011 07:39:36 PM 1206 Views
Damane don't know about reversed weaves Skeeve the Great - 31/12/2010 09:56:51 PM 1304 Views

Not really ... Rand has had LTT knowledge leaking into his head for a long time darius_sedai - 02/01/2011 07:13:41 PM 1057 Views
reversed weaves are only useful when dealing with someone who doesn't know they exist. Onarishma - 03/01/2011 07:51:01 PM 975 Views
Depends on the circumstances really darius_sedai - 04/01/2011 02:17:29 PM 1118 Views
but why would she have any idea that Nynaeve would be able to resist her. Onarishma - 10/01/2011 07:30:49 PM 1061 Views
Well she did get attacked right off the bat... Pretty indicative that Nyn resist her compulsion darius_sedai - 11/01/2011 12:56:51 AM 1034 Views
Exactly. which is why she didn't have time to do any "fancy" and time consuming reversing. Onarishma - 11/01/2011 03:23:50 PM 1191 Views
that's where she made her mistake darius_sedai - 11/01/2011 04:47:56 PM 1004 Views
It would be these memories, his t'a'veren nature & sheer luck/plot necessity that gave him the edge RugbyPlayingAshaman - 03/01/2011 10:32:43 PM 1102 Views
Well that was always going to happen DrJacJacMcScrumptious - 03/01/2011 11:41:22 PM 1033 Views
Yes. As I said, it would have been a very different series. Thanks for going into detail ! RugbyPlayingAshaman - 04/01/2011 04:47:51 PM 1008 Views

Cyndane injured Alivia, yes, but Alivia fought Cyndane off. Heiko - 02/01/2011 12:36:12 AM 1167 Views
Re: Cyndane injured Alivia, yes, but Alivia fought Cyndane off. Voscaia Sedai - 02/01/2011 09:56:34 AM 1126 Views
Yup. Joel - 02/01/2011 03:12:39 PM 1069 Views
Small correction - It has not been established that Alivia is stronger than Cyndane unaided... Shannow - 02/01/2011 06:02:53 PM 1063 Views
Alivia has little experience fighting channellers, unlike Lanfear (most likely)... DomA - 03/01/2011 12:56:43 AM 1423 Views
I agree with you moratcorlm - 03/01/2011 01:08:35 AM 1077 Views
Demandred wasn't commenting on Cadsuane's paralis net, but on her little bird saidin detector... Shannow - 03/01/2011 07:01:08 AM 1186 Views
Where do you get this idea? *NM* moratcorlm - 03/01/2011 07:19:50 PM 612 Views
Well, he's definitely right he was commenting on one of the specific ter'angreal in her "net". DomA - 03/01/2011 10:51:09 PM 1120 Views
I'm thinking there are 2 items that break webs in different ways darius_sedai - 04/01/2011 07:51:46 PM 1083 Views
Very interesting point. I never noticed that before... Shannow - 05/01/2011 08:02:52 AM 1028 Views
Cadsuane has two types of weavebreakers... fionwe1987 - 05/01/2011 12:51:38 PM 949 Views
inconclusive ... the ornament may be the same one she used to disrupt Semirhage darius_sedai - 05/01/2011 04:09:39 PM 1029 Views
I'm confused... fionwe1987 - 05/01/2011 06:15:06 PM 1006 Views
Why should Cadsuane's "distance" unraveler not also go cold at nearby channeling? Shannow - 05/01/2011 06:51:49 PM 1016 Views
I'd buy this. Myrdhyn - 05/01/2011 07:12:50 PM 988 Views
Except Cyndane had never heard of a ter'angreal that can unravel weaves... Shannow - 05/01/2011 07:18:58 PM 911 Views
Not necessarily. Myrdhyn - 05/01/2011 09:26:49 PM 1015 Views
I doubt it since LTT claims they created the "first" ones in the AOL darius_sedai - 08/01/2011 05:23:53 PM 969 Views
The first paralis nets, not necessarily the first weave breakers. Myrdhyn - 09/01/2011 09:53:56 PM 1021 Views
Maybe, but that's getting really convoluted darius_sedai - 10/01/2011 03:36:17 AM 892 Views
Agreed Myrdhyn - 10/01/2011 05:14:45 PM 991 Views
I don't remember if the AS Symbol was used prior to the AOL ... if so then it's possible *NM* darius_sedai - 10/01/2011 05:55:38 PM 552 Views
It would fit the various scenarios if she had 2 kinds ... darius_sedai - 05/01/2011 03:53:48 PM 972 Views
Because Demandred said so... Shannow - 04/01/2011 07:28:56 AM 1056 Views
Re: Because Demandred said so... moratcorlm - 04/01/2011 08:45:38 AM 1080 Views

Re: If anyone made a mistake, it was Sanderson, not RJ. moratcorlm - 04/01/2011 10:35:45 AM 1122 Views
I don't think Rand is referring to the system as an indivisible whole. Shannow - 04/01/2011 10:45:24 AM 1058 Views
Besides, he knew of the Well from their previous visit to Far Madding... Shannow - 04/01/2011 11:18:39 AM 1053 Views
It's also possible that a Paralis Net is simply a name for any personal system darius_sedai - 04/01/2011 09:23:18 PM 1176 Views
I agree. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 10/01/2011 07:08:19 PM 1029 Views
Re: Demandred wasn't commenting on Cadsuane's paralis net, but on her little bird saidin detector... DomA - 03/01/2011 10:01:00 PM 1081 Views
I cannot remember Semirhage's reference to a paralis net, but if she did do so, it is problematic... Shannow - 04/01/2011 07:31:24 AM 1004 Views
It's a throw-away line moratcorlm - 04/01/2011 08:48:25 AM 1111 Views
