Well I've discovered that the shooter was a grey man however the previous prescence could have been Onarishma Send a noteboard - 15/11/2012 03:25:35 PM
up to a King on his throne without being noticed.

I always assumed that was one of Rand's early moments of feeling shadowspawn because he could Channel.


of how a Grey Man is noticed but not noticed.


You are making an assumption that there was some kind of teleportation going on rather than simply Rand feeling something he didn't understand and had no experience with.

Personally I think people jump to the Slayer conclusion with assassinations far too often. He seems to like to "play with his food" ... IIRC we've never seen him use a bow or perform any kind of distance kill. He get's up close and personal and uses knives. And if Slayer was on the job to kill either Siuan or Rand he would not have stopped at one attempt. He didn't become the Shadow's top hitman by failing once and not finishing the job.


Also the presence was jumping around the room as well as preceding Rand into new rooms.


I still don't think the presence moving around means anything though. And it doesn't explain why Slayer would stop hunting his prey after only a single failed attempt.


Slayer just doing recon. The only other option to explain the jumping around is possibly a Myyrdrall about to step out of a shadow and choosing not to.

But Rand clearly attributes the attack to a suoernatural assailant. Slayer is the only creature Onarishma - 07/11/2012 10:32:21 PM 588 Views
not necessarily identifying the target of the arrow just identifying the skill set Onarishma - 07/11/2012 10:34:55 PM 505 Views
A Grey Man could do it to ... not in the same way, but we are told they could walk right darius_sedai - 08/11/2012 07:38:05 PM 527 Views

Grey Men wouldn't be able to jump around the room like that. It doesn't match any scene we've seen Onarishma - 08/11/2012 08:58:39 PM 549 Views

Slayer uses arrows when we meet him with Perrin in TAR Onarishma - 09/11/2012 05:48:50 PM 513 Views
Yup... Slayer uses both the bow and knives. *NM* DomA - 09/11/2012 08:53:38 PM 261 Views
You are correct... Was thinking it was only Perrin with the bow darius_sedai - 10/11/2012 02:04:09 AM 510 Views

Not sure... DomA - 15/11/2012 04:50:04 PM 520 Views
Just doubtful that the sense of movement can be attributed to anyone else. Onarishma - 15/11/2012 09:21:01 PM 741 Views

the shooter WAS a grey man... per Ingtar. I still think the other prescence was Slayer. *NM* Onarishma - 15/11/2012 03:13:56 PM 257 Views
