we don't know the strength difference between Cadsuane and Nynaeve darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 22/01/2011 08:55:48 PM
It's just that it sounds unlikely that if/when the channeler is revealed, that it will be Norla. We don't know how much stronger Nyn is than Caddy (or do we)? Still, it's pretty clear that Cadsuane gained her special trinkets when she met Norla. It's much more likely, then, that Norla had the trinkets on. Caddy probably got all haughty, then got schooled (figuratively and literally).


Only that Cadsuane is not as strong as Egwene/Elayne, but was the strongest women to enter the Tower in about 1000 years. The trinkets were something Norla gave Cadsuane over time (she had to earn them IIRC) but it seems unlikely that a woman of less than notable strength would have been able to even grab Cadsuane's attention when she was new to the Shawl and still very wrapped up in her own Strength. No real evidence that Norla could have been stronger than Nynaeve, but it would explain why Cadsuane of all AS never more than passingly notices how strong Nynaeve is ... she's pretty much unimpressed.

Could Norla be the other woman stronger than Nynaeve? - 22/01/2011 06:54:36 PM 2066 Views
It's a nice idea, really - 22/01/2011 07:04:03 PM 1119 Views

Nynaeve is of course roughly twice as strong as Cadsuane... - 24/01/2011 10:26:49 PM 1149 Views
Still sticking to the nonsense I see... - 25/01/2011 12:14:12 AM 960 Views
you and your assumptions crack me up ... there is zero evidence that Nyn is 2x Cadsuane - 26/01/2011 04:41:33 PM 981 Views

*blows out the friggin candle* ... why does anyone take EoTW Moiraine quotes seriously? - 26/01/2011 09:41:53 PM 980 Views
tGH, but I agree... - 27/01/2011 04:58:08 AM 1060 Views

I think it's a matter of perspective too - 27/01/2011 05:12:29 PM 862 Views
Nynaeve temporarily holds Logain shielded on her own, while 5 average strength Aes Sedai cannot... - 27/01/2011 05:35:26 PM 770 Views
Another inconsistency ... since 4 women held a shield on Rand who is Stronger than Logain EDIT - 27/01/2011 07:47:31 PM 866 Views
Not an inconsistency and if you analyse it... - 27/01/2011 08:21:39 PM 1090 Views

Thanks - 28/01/2011 04:05:47 PM 942 Views
Not really the case though - 28/01/2011 04:54:28 PM 735 Views
That's your evidence? You mean like Caddy defers to Nynaeve? - 28/01/2011 02:29:46 PM 832 Views
So Elayne is Cadsunae in you stupid play? - 28/01/2011 02:44:07 PM 801 Views

it's obviously a stretch, just a random thought - 22/01/2011 08:26:49 PM 1072 Views
Possibly? But unlikely. - 23/01/2011 11:12:01 PM 837 Views
The 6 are... - 24/01/2011 10:09:33 PM 1155 Views
I disagree. If anything Semirhage is at the same strength level - 24/01/2011 11:10:30 PM 924 Views
Agree and disagree... - 25/01/2011 10:44:26 AM 882 Views
Re: Agree and disagree... - 25/01/2011 11:04:11 PM 817 Views
I didn't say Semirhage is definitely one of the 6, but his answer leaves it as a viable possibility. - 26/01/2011 07:36:52 AM 935 Views
Not really - 26/01/2011 05:15:59 PM 814 Views
Lanfear and Cyndane are the same person *NM* - 25/01/2011 10:24:15 AM 409 Views

I agree. - 24/01/2011 03:56:00 PM 826 Views
Possible... - 25/01/2011 12:17:42 AM 805 Views
none whatsoever ... purely speculating here *NM* - 26/01/2011 04:44:15 PM 360 Views
Not necessarily - 25/01/2011 08:07:02 PM 745 Views

I can see that as a possibility too - 26/01/2011 10:22:02 PM 855 Views

we'll always disagree I suppose - 27/01/2011 04:47:42 PM 909 Views
Strongest since the breaking? I disagree - 19/08/2011 01:09:37 PM 1076 Views
I doubt it. - 26/01/2011 03:53:33 AM 872 Views
