Re: That is the question I was getting at kHz1000 Send a noteboard - 26/09/2012 07:01:34 PM
Can you elaborate a bit further on Moghedien's comments on Hesalem's strength in the Power. I read somewhere else that she compared it to Nynaeve's, giving rise to comments that Nynaeve and Graendal might be on the same strength level.

Is there any reason to make such conclusions from the information provided in this scene, or any other strength conclusions for that matter?

Moghedien suddenly seems far more bold. The fact that she is openly challenging a more powerful foe etc...

Did we finally see how the Cleansing changed her? IIRC she thought that if she survived it she'd never be afraid of anything.

Still, I doubt Moggy would have been nearly as bold with the actual Graendal. Hessalam, otoh, seems pathetic. Graendals's looks were everything to her and as Hessalam, she must absolutely loath, well, herself. Moggy finds that hilarious and that makes her bold. And uncharacteristically careless.

I think we are going to see the post-Cleansing Moghedien :)

Yes. I had high hopes for Moggy after the Cleansing but I'd already given up on those since nothing implied she'd changed. She's my favourite Forsaken and one of my favourite characters.

I think we saw them during the attack on Maradon. The Portal Stone attack seems less likely darius_sedai - 23/09/2012 11:41:42 PM 1023 Views
Just one comment.. Shannow - 23/09/2012 11:53:09 PM 1727 Views
If I had to take a guess right now I'd say he has been setting up various Shadow armies thought the darius_sedai - 23/09/2012 09:30:34 PM 1051 Views
I think at the very least he has recreated the One-and-Eighty male channelers from the AOL... Shannow - 23/09/2012 09:34:56 PM 1149 Views
As I said he will almost certainly have Channelers darius_sedai - 23/09/2012 09:47:53 PM 1296 Views
All he needed to do was train 10 guys personally.. Shannow - 23/09/2012 09:51:46 PM 954 Views
