Exactly why does she have to kneel? fionwe1987 Send a noteboard - 24/01/2013 01:31:03 AM
Would she ever kneel to the Dragon Reborn?

What purpose would that have served?
Would she ever kneel to Seanchan Empress?

I should hope not. And if you think Cadsuane will kneel for Tuon, you've got another thing coming. More likely, Cadsuane will kidnap Tuon, and paddle her bottom till she sees sense.
Would she ever kneel to any King or Queen?

You think Cadsuane will? }<img class=' />

The WT authority is near an all time low, and world powers are balancing each other out. In order to keep the WT in check, the patten needed a less ambitious leader.

Ummm... Egwene had exactly the right ambitions. Rather than have the Tower try to dominate all the new channeling organizations that were revealed, she instead curbed the Tower's tendency for control and worked out a deal which treated all these organizations equal. Rather than trying to use Mattin Stephaneos when he was in her power, she let him go free. Rather than kick up a fuss, she accepted Elayne being made supreme commander. Rather than start an open fight about Elayne's plan for the Kin, she let it pass for the Last Battle.

Cadsuane is likely to be a lot less patient about many of these things. Anyone who thinks Cadsuane is less ambitious for the Tower is plain wrong.

Well since Cadsuane won't abolish the oaths she'll be dead before she can accomplish much - 23/01/2013 10:00:27 PM 901 Views

I disagree about Cadsuane. Her entitlement issues are pretty significant. - 23/01/2013 11:29:04 PM 825 Views

Why does Egwene expect people to kneel and kiss her ring - 24/01/2013 02:08:21 AM 779 Views
