Is that we really don't know what the Seanchan are like in Avi's future visions. All we know about them we see from the Aiel's POV, and that sure as hell can't be trusted because the Aiel are twisted by their hatred of the Seanchan. The persecute the Aiel because well just look at what happened. The Aiel broke a turce over their sense of honor and then later dragged the neutral nations into their war. They were the aggressors here. Nor did they admit defeat or surrender, they kept on fighting until their ability to fight back as an organized resistance was destroyed. It's no wonder the Seanchan don't trust them.

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

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

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

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

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