I remember reading on here that RJ had said there was a finite amount of Power. I think it was DomA that said it. Anyone know whether this is true or not?


I'd vaguely assumed that Rand and Nynaeve had actually channeled all of saidin during the cleansing. But it's an interesting question - if the power is finite, what would happen if all the channelers in the world hooked themselves up to sa'angreal at the same time and tried to channel?

(I suppose when you think about it, if the universe is finite, so too must the Power be.)

Or the taint didn't act like oil? - 13/10/2012 05:38:29 PM 721 Views
From the various descriptions in the text this seems likely - 14/10/2012 08:21:59 PM 643 Views

RJ himself said it's like an oily skin floating on top of Saidin. *NM* - 15/10/2012 02:22:22 AM 326 Views

You seem to be asking why the taint didn't mix with saidin - 16/10/2012 12:48:55 AM 541 Views
I think you might be, not sure where you've gotten that idea from. *NM* - 16/10/2012 02:45:18 AM 304 Views
