Re: Actually it states he will save a remnant of a remnant Fanatic-Templar Send a noteboard - 11/04/2012 01:40:36 AM
The second statement is an active not a passive statement. It does not say "a remnant of a remnant will survive being broken"


"He shall spill out the blood of those who call themselves Aiel as water on sand, and he shall break them as dried twigs, yet the remnant of a remnant shall he save, and they shall live."
The first rule of being a ninja is "do no harm". Unless you intend to do harm, then do lots of harm.

The entire point, I believe, is to give Avienda the opportunity to change that future LadyLorraine - 03/04/2012 05:13:48 PM 1137 Views
As far as I understand it, that future is impossible anyway. Fanatic-Templar - 03/04/2012 07:30:52 PM 895 Views
Depends on how one defines Aiel darius_sedai - 04/04/2012 04:11:11 AM 840 Views
There are more than there were before. Fanatic-Templar - 04/04/2012 07:03:27 AM 862 Views
But when the prophesy was made there many followers darius_sedai - 04/04/2012 10:10:54 AM 766 Views
The Tuatha'an are not Aiel. Fanatic-Templar - 04/04/2012 06:28:47 PM 845 Views

For the record I agree that the visions are not true either darius_sedai - 05/04/2012 02:25:47 PM 830 Views

Yes, I was thinking of the Aiel's suicidal traditions as well. Fanatic-Templar - 05/04/2012 06:24:56 PM 765 Views

So what you're saying... Fanatic-Templar - 07/04/2012 10:07:59 PM 663 Views
What I am saying is that it's not a "pure bloodline" that makes one an Aiel darius_sedai - 08/04/2012 12:16:10 AM 772 Views
I never said it was. Fanatic-Templar - 08/04/2012 12:43:26 AM 830 Views
Actually you did In your above post you speak of the Tinkers as not Aiel because they have been darius_sedai - 08/04/2012 06:09:01 AM 766 Views
No... Fanatic-Templar - 08/04/2012 07:12:22 AM 883 Views
You have no evidence that the Tuath'an are mostly comprised of runaways etc darius_sedai - 08/04/2012 05:16:54 PM 844 Views

Thanks for that. Fanatic-Templar - 09/04/2012 02:38:25 AM 624 Views
Red hair is double recessive ... Doesn't take much to eliminate it from the gene pool. There could darius_sedai - 08/04/2012 11:22:36 PM 810 Views
You are consistently making the same mistake. Fanatic-Templar - 09/04/2012 02:45:46 AM 654 Views
They are the same thing. The remnant of a remnant are Aiel darius_sedai - 10/04/2012 05:04:55 AM 795 Views
No. They are not. Fanatic-Templar - 10/04/2012 05:42:29 AM 689 Views
Never said the remnant of the remnant was the whole of the Aiel darius_sedai - 10/04/2012 05:45:47 PM 696 Views
You said that redefining the Aiel would allow Aviendha's vision to be possible. Fanatic-Templar - 10/04/2012 06:53:51 PM 877 Views
No , I said there were many ways to interpret the statement based on how one defines Aiel darius_sedai - 10/04/2012 07:36:11 PM 655 Views
All of which is entirely irrelevant. Fanatic-Templar - 10/04/2012 07:38:29 PM 666 Views

Re: Actually it states he will save a remnant of a remnant Fanatic-Templar - 11/04/2012 01:40:36 AM 726 Views
That is what I just said darius_sedai - 14/04/2012 01:41:56 AM 696 Views
What is important about that? Fanatic-Templar - 14/04/2012 04:35:55 AM 674 Views
The importance is that the prophesy says that Rand darius_sedai - 14/04/2012 06:06:31 PM 844 Views
So what you're saying is... Fanatic-Templar - 14/04/2012 09:45:36 PM 708 Views
That's exactly it darius_sedai - 14/04/2012 11:21:25 PM 791 Views
Good. Fanatic-Templar - 15/04/2012 02:01:14 AM 808 Views
He sets it in motion, thus his actions lead to it darius_sedai - 15/04/2012 02:55:13 PM 680 Views
Yes, but in that case, he is responsible for everything, ever. Fanatic-Templar - 15/04/2012 05:29:31 PM 772 Views
We are interpreting Prophesy here ... Direct v. Indirect actions are what we are discussing darius_sedai - 15/04/2012 07:21:29 PM 679 Views

Depends on how you look at the Prophesy darius_sedai - 18/04/2012 01:45:23 PM 631 Views
Of course, but the point of my example was... Fanatic-Templar - 17/04/2012 06:08:09 PM 663 Views
Where are you getting this happens over thousands of years? darius_sedai - 18/04/2012 01:47:42 PM 664 Views
Because that was the important part of that post. Fanatic-Templar - 18/04/2012 05:28:10 PM 790 Views
Don't know when this became about winning darius_sedai - 19/04/2012 02:08:16 AM 583 Views
