No, I think it is Egwene demanding it from Alanna, or Elayne... lilltempest Send a noteboard - 29/11/2012 06:27:59 PM
If she sees that she cannot control him and that he will do as he pleases, no matter her demands, she would not think twice about taking his bond from one of the women who holds that power over him. Despite Alanna's inability to "handle" him, Egwene would believe that she is far more able to use the bond to force him to her will. And there is no way in hell Rand would allow her to bond him. If she wants it, she'll have to take it from one who already holds him.

Additionally, if she sees the world's leaders falling in behind him, rather than siding with her, holding his bond would effectively get them in line - after all, everyone knows that a Warder is nothing more than an Aes Sedai lapdog. Plus, Egwene has been set up as flat out godlike in that she can snap someone's mind with her iron will (Mesaana), so it would not surprise me in the least if she can force Rand to her will using the bond. It will disgust me, but it would not surprise me.

No reason it can't be both Pevara asking Androl AND Androl being Farestrider's kid *NM* darius_sedai - 28/11/2012 02:11:58 AM 694 Views
The whole idea of "Farstrider's son" sounds silly, if you ask me DomA - 28/11/2012 03:23:11 AM 1409 Views
I think this is Egwene... fionwe1987 - 28/11/2012 06:38:02 AM 996 Views

well isn't wild speculation part of the reason for a discussion forum? darius_sedai - 28/11/2012 04:00:35 PM 901 Views
could be a mocking quote mazza3 - 28/11/2012 04:41:36 PM 1083 Views

that is a good observation and explains the tone of the sentence *NM* darius_sedai - 28/11/2012 07:43:06 PM 545 Views
I like it. *NM* Narg - 28/11/2012 08:24:58 PM 535 Views

I can't see a forsaken wanting the bond with all the downsides it would cary for them. HyogaRott - 29/11/2012 06:36:08 PM 1075 Views
Egwene to Alanna, IMO. DomA - 29/11/2012 07:00:01 PM 1283 Views
Highly doubtful... fionwe1987 - 29/11/2012 07:14:33 PM 1072 Views
Agreed, Egwene would see the disadvantages of holding his bond as outweighing the advantages darius_sedai - 29/11/2012 07:27:48 PM 1048 Views
Regarding Rand "tracking her actions", she can mask the bond to take care of that. *NM* lilltempest - 29/11/2012 07:45:03 PM 666 Views
That masking works both ways... *NM* fionwe1987 - 29/11/2012 07:49:41 PM 539 Views
Does it? Have we seen a Warder who can mask the bond from his owner? lilltempest - 29/11/2012 07:54:17 PM 890 Views
Most warders aren't channelers... Min can't mask and she is the bonder in the situation and then Onarishma - 29/11/2012 08:05:53 PM 1130 Views
You're right, most aren't channelers... lilltempest - 29/11/2012 08:22:04 PM 904 Views
That's because you see it as a leash... Onarishma - 03/12/2012 10:45:17 PM 970 Views
well it can be a leash, but that's up to the bond holder darius_sedai - 03/12/2012 10:56:49 PM 988 Views
where have we seen this emotional and physical stress that was related at all to the bond? *NM* Onarishma - 04/12/2012 12:08:23 AM 604 Views
Eylas comes to mind darius_sedai - 04/12/2012 04:31:17 AM 759 Views
Even Cadsuane speaks of "taming" men who are bonded... lilltempest - 04/12/2012 06:31:25 AM 977 Views
No argument from me on most of this darius_sedai - 04/12/2012 04:36:28 PM 1062 Views
Moiraine and Myrelle seem to have a similar view... fionwe1987 - 04/12/2012 12:10:05 AM 1081 Views
Mostly agreed darius_sedai - 04/12/2012 04:34:47 AM 983 Views
Hmmm... fionwe1987 - 29/11/2012 08:42:25 PM 983 Views
I think Aviendha (she told Min about it) is simply ignorant about the mechanics of masking *NM* darius_sedai - 30/11/2012 03:44:01 AM 590 Views
Elayne told Min... fionwe1987 - 30/11/2012 05:07:44 AM 838 Views
You are correct ... Min told Aviendha! darius_sedai - 30/11/2012 03:59:27 PM 901 Views
Re: You are correct ... Min told Aviendha! darius_sedai - 30/11/2012 04:04:53 PM 980 Views
Nope.. fionwe1987 - 30/11/2012 08:56:59 PM 830 Views
this is the scene I'm referring too ... but it DID work for Aviendha darius_sedai - 30/11/2012 10:19:21 PM 966 Views
Thanks to both of you for digging this up... lilltempest - 01/12/2012 04:01:48 AM 932 Views
Re: Thanks to both of you for digging this up... fionwe1987 - 01/12/2012 04:37:54 AM 913 Views
About Alanna, that isn't right... lilltempest - 01/12/2012 05:51:03 AM 873 Views
It most certainly is... fionwe1987 - 01/12/2012 03:52:45 PM 953 Views
LOL! I love how you make up nonexistent scenes to support your case. lilltempest - 01/12/2012 11:12:46 PM 968 Views
Says the woman who's come up with the most ridiculously fantastic scenarios... fionwe1987 - 02/12/2012 03:04:54 AM 906 Views
Yet Min holds Rands Bond *NM* darius_sedai - 01/12/2012 05:48:39 AM 525 Views
And? What does that prove? lilltempest - 01/12/2012 05:53:43 AM 983 Views
I think we do know a couple of things darius_sedai - 01/12/2012 03:32:09 PM 869 Views
Ah, then yes, we're on the same side of this argument. lilltempest - 01/12/2012 11:08:23 PM 913 Views
You still haven't addressed the main point... fionwe1987 - 02/12/2012 03:01:32 AM 968 Views
Hmmm fionwe1987 - 01/12/2012 04:22:26 AM 913 Views
Min is not the Warder in the situation with Rand. She is the only non-Channeler who is a bond holde darius_sedai - 01/12/2012 05:52:08 AM 967 Views
I'm pretty sure Elayas can't mask the bond either ... I'd have to go look, but I think there darius_sedai - 30/11/2012 03:41:51 AM 932 Views
Something when he's talking to Perrin? TheCrownless - 30/11/2012 07:25:33 PM 873 Views

Day #5 - What!?!?!?! HousealThor - 30/11/2012 05:46:44 PM 1030 Views
I really want that to be a sarcastic moment between Mat and Egwene *NM* darius_sedai - 30/11/2012 06:06:18 PM 445 Views
This sounds like Moiraine to me...possibly dry and sarcastic... lilltempest - 01/12/2012 04:05:21 AM 923 Views
Who whispers sarcastically though? fionwe1987 - 01/12/2012 04:29:30 AM 891 Views
Many people do... lilltempest - 01/12/2012 05:47:06 AM 990 Views
Not seeing it in the situation you wrote. Sorry. fionwe1987 - 01/12/2012 03:57:32 PM 940 Views
Of course you don't. In your world, Egwene will glare at Tuon and Tuon will drop to her knees.... lilltempest - 01/12/2012 11:13:53 PM 1067 Views
What's that got to do with anything? fionwe1987 - 02/12/2012 03:00:08 AM 1126 Views
Hmm yeah sounds more like Moiraine or possibly Nynaeve *NM* Praziquantel - 01/12/2012 07:03:42 AM 585 Views
Day 6 .... Galad ... MEH darius_sedai - 02/12/2012 04:31:29 PM 1271 Views

Not Demandred I think Sidious - 04/12/2012 07:16:27 AM 1030 Views
Demandred wouldn't be seen using the Ways himself! darius_sedai - 04/12/2012 09:04:06 PM 987 Views
My thought was Ituralde finding out about Caemlyn TheCrownless - 05/12/2012 12:11:03 AM 1243 Views
Yup ... And I suspect we'll be seeing several more attacks like this darius_sedai - 05/12/2012 12:14:34 AM 1003 Views
