I wonder if Nakomi was Lanfear & if so, perhaps changed the programming of the ter'angreal RugbyPlayingAshaman Send a noteboard - 10/01/2011 10:30:50 PM
It seems poetic that the Forsaken some of whose interactions with Rand started in Rhuidean would return, do something to the ter'angreal, track Aviendha and then disguise herself (as she did with Rand) to sow seeds for Rands' destruction. Especially since she has had time to figure out which one of the two women she tortured was Aviendha. I doubt Aviendha has attained the mastery of T'A'R that Egwene has since she lacks the talent for it, and I think there is a possibility that Lanfear is doing what so many of us hoped other Forsaken would do - go after Rands' wives.

Also, I'm reminded of the time when Rand was in the portal stone world (ironically, this was another episode that Lanfear was intimately involved in) - while he was there, he vanished from the world of Dreams, and Egwene sensed that he was no longer in reality. The effect of his absence on Viewings and Dreams are not quite clear, but it seems likely that exiting reality did have an effect. Perhaps the same thing is happening here - Rand has become such a nexus of the Pattern that Aviendha saw Viewings that were showing all of the possible realities that could result from his actions. If the timeline was more clear, we'd know whether or not this was before or after Rand met with Tuon or had his epiphany. Given the chronological discrepancies elsewhere in the book, it is very difficult IMHO to determine what the nature of these Viewings could be.

Avi's 2nd trip indirectly tells us something about Elayne - 08/01/2011 10:31:15 PM 2319 Views
Aviendha and Tuon are also dead or gone by that point. *NM* - 09/01/2011 04:07:44 AM 595 Views
That does not surprise me - 10/01/2011 12:06:23 AM 1149 Views
40/50 is still young for Tuon to die, unless she's assassinated - 10/01/2011 12:26:19 AM 1041 Views
they've been collared *NM* - 10/01/2011 01:55:18 PM 448 Views
I just figured that Elayne, Egwene and Nynaeve died fighting the Seanchan - 10/01/2011 05:28:14 PM 1158 Views
that doesn't fit the timeline though - 11/01/2011 04:58:11 PM 959 Views

It tells us Elayne doesn't rule very long, and neither does her daughter... BUT - 10/01/2011 09:15:29 PM 1235 Views

Yeah, Lanfear put Confundus Charm on the columns... *NM* - 11/01/2011 03:00:46 PM 456 Views
Lanfear or a Forsaken as Nakomi don't make much sense to me - 12/01/2011 06:03:32 PM 1386 Views

Aviendha time traveling back to herself. Very interesting...and possible...I'll have to think on it *NM* - 30/01/2011 10:02:44 PM 502 Views
