Don't know if this has been addressed before. Did a search but came up empty. My question is: If a Suldam is shielded can she still direct a Damane. It is clear from the books that an adam is not a ter'angreal that can be used by non-channeler. So, however thin the link is, it must be dependent on the suldam having a connection to the power. The Suldam must be utilizing the power however insignificant to amount.
