My biggest contention with Demandred being with the Sea Folk darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 06/11/2012 10:54:50 PM
is that he basically gave up most of his ships to send food to Arad Doman. As we learned from the encounter with Logain and the Wavemisstesses, to ship that much food would require nearly all of their Rakers


Chapter Twenty-Two
To Make An Anchor Weep
“Supplies for more than a million people, Shipmistress,” Logain added as casually as if he were asking for another goblet of wine. “How many more, I cannot say, but Bandar Eban itself is starving. The ships must arrive as soon as possible.”

Shock rippled through the cabin. Harine was not alone in taking a long drink of wine. Even Zaida’s eyes widened in amazement. “That might require more rakers than we possess,” she said at last, unable to keep the incredulity from her voice.

Logain shrugged as though that were of no account. “Even so, that is what he requires of you. Use other ships if you must.”

Zaida stiffened in her chair. Required. Bargain or no Bargain, that was imprudent language to use with her.


This task alone seems to make the Sea Folk an irrelevant force since those ships are now all sitting in Bandar Eban being unloaded.

Aside from that the Sea Folk, while an amazing Naval force, have not been proven as a land force in any way. What are they going to attack?
