I see them as neccessary evil to eventually eliminate channeling. Skeeve the Great Send a noteboard - 24/01/2011 08:04:21 PM
Would this not be a good thing? Seeing how they run the lands they already posses, and how good of shape they are in, reletive to the rest of randland, wouldn't most of the country be better off with governing body that already knows how to take care of the disonance and destruction that is prophecised after TG?

Avi's viewing also kind of line up with the splinter of a splinter thats left of the aiel. Just my 2 cents for my first RAFO.com post.

Tear into it please :)


We all know that at some point in the future, there would be a new First Age that has no knowledge of the One Power. I see Seanchan as the way the Pattern achives it and we see it in Avi's visions: there is a steady decline in the use of One Power and replacement of it by new technology (rifles, guns, steam engines, railroads, etc).

Yeah, and I really hate them.

Seanchan Takeover of Randland Mordie01 - 22/01/2011 11:25:36 PM 2162 Views
I would be mostly okay with it if they abolished slavery first Deadsy - 23/01/2011 12:19:48 AM 1121 Views
Hopefully the Dragon's Peace (not the one Avi saw the effects of) those concerns. *NM* Japhy - 23/01/2011 03:21:04 AM 522 Views
You mean utter anarchy and a dangerously stratified society? Ghavrel - 23/01/2011 07:24:48 AM 900 Views
The situation in Seanchan isn't that unique ranagrande - 23/01/2011 07:49:28 AM 938 Views
Except with continous rebellion. Chas - 23/01/2011 12:13:17 PM 931 Views
That's to be expected. ranagrande - 23/01/2011 12:56:07 PM 884 Views
there's tons of problems there, but 20+ leaders/royals killed? Disaster anywhere... *NM* newyorkersedai - 23/01/2011 11:38:57 AM 455 Views
Funny; Caemlyn's succession crises aren't nearly as bad. *NM* Ghavrel - 23/01/2011 11:00:45 PM 447 Views
Rand deserves some credit, he did get involved early and held the Lion Throne for Elayne. *NM* Libby - 24/01/2011 08:47:42 AM 477 Views
The anarchy is what happens in the absence of Seanchan power. Cannoli - 27/01/2011 01:10:56 PM 874 Views
Yes. That is a flaw of Seanchan governance. Ghavrel - 28/01/2011 01:54:00 AM 800 Views
It's not the Empire's fault, and that flaw is not being duplicated in the wetlands Cannoli - 28/01/2011 11:24:00 PM 1053 Views
Wait... the indegenous Seanchan haven't changed in a thousand years? fionwe1987 - 29/01/2011 02:09:05 AM 819 Views

It's like you don't even read anything when you post. My posts, the books themselves... Cannoli - 02/02/2011 06:41:10 PM 925 Views
They treat channelers like DOGS! so, No. *NM* Evil_Monkey - 23/01/2011 07:56:22 AM 452 Views
I treat my dog better *NM* Voscaia Sedai - 23/01/2011 10:28:08 AM 441 Views
Good point. *NM* Evil_Monkey - 24/01/2011 01:47:29 AM 464 Views
Dogs never broke the world or created Shadowspawn, so they have it coming *NM* Cannoli - 27/01/2011 01:07:32 PM 426 Views
The Pattern certainly has some plan or purpose for the Seanchan. Libby - 23/01/2011 10:59:33 AM 986 Views
That's what's scary. In many ways, the Seanchan embody the goals of the Pattern Lord Haart - 23/01/2011 11:41:35 PM 820 Views
If we're going to personify things, we should be personifying the Wheel, not the Pattern. Ghavrel - 24/01/2011 12:13:49 AM 849 Views

a) most of that is your own extrapolation, not shown in the text moratcorlm - 23/01/2011 04:56:14 PM 871 Views

"We" don't know of the One Power existing, so obviously it disappears. *NM* Deadsy - 26/01/2011 12:14:19 AM 462 Views
Lack of knowledge doesn't mean the One Power vanishes or is destroyed. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 26/01/2011 04:03:22 PM 770 Views
If OP still existed, you'd still have sparkers even "today". *NM* Myrdhyn - 26/01/2011 06:34:50 PM 445 Views
Not exactly; genetics are more complicated. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 27/01/2011 09:48:48 PM 846 Views
