If we're going to personify things, we should be personifying the Wheel, not the Pattern.

In any case, where are you getting the idea that the Pattern desires whole, unbroken order? The champion of the Pattern is not exactly known for these things.
"We feel safe when we read what we recognise, what does not challenge our way of thinking.... a steady acceptance of pre-arranged patterns leads to the inability to question what we are told."

I would be mostly okay with it if they abolished slavery first

Hopefully the Dragon's Peace (not the one Avi saw the effects of) those concerns. *NM*

You mean utter anarchy and a dangerously stratified society?

The situation in Seanchan isn't that unique

there's tons of problems there, but 20+ leaders/royals killed? Disaster anywhere... *NM*

Funny; Caemlyn's succession crises aren't nearly as bad. *NM*

Rand deserves some credit, he did get involved early and held the Lion Throne for Elayne. *NM*

The anarchy is what happens in the absence of Seanchan power.

Yes. That is a flaw of Seanchan governance.

It's not the Empire's fault, and that flaw is not being duplicated in the wetlands

It's like you don't even read anything when you post. My posts, the books themselves...

They treat channelers like DOGS! so, No. *NM*

Dogs never broke the world or created Shadowspawn, so they have it coming *NM*

The Pattern certainly has some plan or purpose for the Seanchan.

That's what's scary. In many ways, the Seanchan embody the goals of the Pattern

"We" don't know of the One Power existing, so obviously it disappears. *NM*

Lack of knowledge doesn't mean the One Power vanishes or is destroyed.

If OP still existed, you'd still have sparkers even "today". *NM*
