Faile will surely domineer someone into pulling Tams carts for him. Joel Send a noteboard - 15/01/2013 03:04:35 PM
How is Tam supposed to be a successful west wood farmer without a cart pony? Seems like the wheel screwed him over. :-)

Hopefully that is what she does; if she just gave him another random pony as compensation for taking Bela to freaking Shayol Ghul, the poor creature would probably be dead by the next harvest.

Slightly better than chocolate.

Love still can't be coerced.

Somehow, I Actually Hate Faile MORE Now Joel - 14/01/2013 12:16:05 PM 3113 Views
Faile made Perrin less interesting Isaac - 14/01/2013 01:15:22 PM 1119 Views
She paralyzed his character development even when Jordan thought she advanced it. Joel - 14/01/2013 02:38:29 PM 1226 Views
I skipped those chapters during my re-read The Doctor - 14/01/2013 10:36:11 PM 1365 Views
I do not blame you, but that practically means skipping TPoD through KoD. Joel - 15/01/2013 06:16:17 AM 1042 Views

You just hit on probably the major structural weakness of the series with respect to characters. Tom - 15/01/2013 02:54:59 AM 1080 Views
I think this is why I still enjoy Rand as a character so much IndigoAjahV2 - 15/01/2013 03:37:52 AM 1000 Views
There were plenty of hard choices, but they might have been handled better. Joel - 15/01/2013 06:58:30 AM 1176 Views
Though I too have wished for them to make really hard choices... Cannoli - 15/01/2013 09:37:34 AM 1129 Views
But they DO make hard choices; they just face relatively few hard consequences. Joel - 15/01/2013 10:08:19 AM 982 Views
Rand certainly flirted with the moral Event Horizon a few times, so did some of the others Isaac - 15/01/2013 10:33:23 AM 1164 Views
Mostly it's because it's clear in RJ's eyes that doing something like the things you suggest is wron IndigoAjahV2 - 15/01/2013 12:41:03 PM 1067 Views
You obviously have a much lower threshold than I do in defining "hard choices". *NM* Tom - 15/01/2013 03:47:52 PM 544 Views
We are introduced to them as they choose between abandoning home w/ a stranger v. staying to die Joel - 15/01/2013 04:46:02 PM 1009 Views
Joel, I just said I disagreed with you. I didn't want to debate this series for the sake of debate. *NM* Tom - 15/01/2013 05:43:55 PM 519 Views
Also, how is choosing not to die a hard choice? Tom - 15/01/2013 05:46:46 PM 912 Views
Because they had only a strange witchs word they would die, and leaving w/ her was perilous, too. Joel - 15/01/2013 06:17:16 PM 924 Views
And a trolloc attack Tom - 16/01/2013 02:28:00 PM 925 Views
True, but there was considerable debate about who brought whom. Joel - 16/01/2013 04:41:35 PM 1044 Views
Jordan said he put some of himself in all the ta'veren, but its clearly strongest with Perrin. Joel - 15/01/2013 06:27:10 AM 1060 Views
I'm glad you have seen the Truth. Tom - 14/01/2013 01:35:36 PM 1044 Views
It was neck and neck with her and Min for a long while, but Min finally saw past her own nose. Joel - 14/01/2013 02:09:13 PM 1030 Views
I just added a sentence at the end to make the series end properly. Tom - 14/01/2013 10:47:18 PM 1114 Views
Works for me. Joel - 15/01/2013 06:13:16 AM 2059 Views
In all fairness Egwene did in fact pay homage to Bela darius_sedai - 14/01/2013 08:36:40 PM 985 Views
Bela has been there for Egwene all the time. fionwe1987 - 14/01/2013 10:16:22 PM 1199 Views
Egwene and Bela Aes_Gesserit - 15/01/2013 08:13:17 AM 956 Views
I thought Noal was riding Bela... *NM* Tom - 14/01/2013 10:47:56 PM 503 Views
I did, too, at first, but "horse"=/="pony." Joel - 15/01/2013 06:08:03 AM 937 Views
I think she fed her an apple once in TV or somewhere, too, but otherwise she ignored her. Joel - 15/01/2013 06:12:26 AM 1123 Views
Dramatic much? Bella lived a good life in TV and later in Salidar darius_sedai - 20/01/2013 12:54:15 AM 7800 Views
Actually, I never understood why people LOVE that horse so much. She is just a horse! *NM* aragornital - 15/01/2013 07:52:29 AM 564 Views
Pony. She is a pony. A loyal, goodnatured, overperforming and underappreciated pony. Joel - 15/01/2013 08:32:21 AM 1070 Views
honestly a child and a horse and you think the kid should be butchered? darius_sedai - 20/01/2013 12:58:32 AM 1061 Views
The whole series is based upon the love of Bela and Narg and her struggle to come to terms with his MightyYT - 16/01/2013 04:01:59 AM 858 Views
The real problem echooff - 15/01/2013 11:30:37 AM 1021 Views

The women in WoT are monsters Sidious - 15/01/2013 11:59:39 AM 1465 Views
I do not consider most of the others all that bad, just idiosyncratic. Joel - 15/01/2013 03:05:51 PM 1247 Views
Oh...I think we know :-) *NM* echooff - 16/01/2013 04:31:18 PM 599 Views
I try to give them, or rather her, the benefit of a doubt. Joel - 16/01/2013 04:48:22 PM 908 Views
Re: Tuon Zalvera - 15/01/2013 03:33:34 PM 1177 Views
I had not noticed that before, but you are right. Joel - 15/01/2013 07:45:53 PM 959 Views
I agree completely... lilltempest - 15/01/2013 05:19:40 PM 1212 Views
Not to argue, but I think RJ created a world where women had the power darius_sedai - 20/01/2013 01:17:11 AM 1067 Views
Agreed ... Nynaeve and Lan are the closest thing to "Healthy" in the series darius_sedai - 20/01/2013 01:09:29 AM 907 Views
Tell me then... Nargs - 18/01/2013 09:08:08 AM 973 Views
That's a fallacious question Tom - 18/01/2013 03:21:56 PM 1052 Views
Are you saying... Nargs - 18/01/2013 09:21:34 PM 972 Views
That is a pathetic answer. Tom - 19/01/2013 04:56:13 AM 924 Views
You're a pathetic ass Nargs - 19/01/2013 06:48:47 AM 947 Views
LOL - that's funny, coming from you, one of the most pathetic fanboys around here. *NM* Tom - 19/01/2013 02:32:18 PM 475 Views
Sad for you. *NM* Nargs - 19/01/2013 09:24:59 PM 503 Views
Oh, gosh, this could take a while. Joel - 18/01/2013 05:58:15 PM 1011 Views
How exactly was Faile the cause for Hopper's death? Zeratul - 19/01/2013 12:31:55 AM 924 Views
Because her kidnapping was the reason Perrin led his hodge podge army to rescue her, and got trapped Joel - 19/01/2013 01:00:26 AM 844 Views
Her kidnapping... Nargs - 19/01/2013 01:32:40 AM 863 Views
I said outright I do not fault her as a character for that (only Jordan for writing it that way. ) Joel - 19/01/2013 07:35:57 PM 931 Views
No it wasn't ... The dreamspike plot would have happened even had she not been kidnapped darius_sedai - 20/01/2013 01:24:25 AM 886 Views
Exactly Zeratul - 20/01/2013 06:59:33 PM 1167 Views
Wow... Nargs - 19/01/2013 01:49:56 AM 995 Views
Culture is sometimes a reason, but never an excuse. Joel - 19/01/2013 08:04:52 PM 982 Views
Just off color Nargs - 19/01/2013 10:03:58 PM 1080 Views
