View original postRand and the DO seemingly used the same functions to create their possible realities in AMOL, incidentally. They were "Worlds of If", controlled not by the Wheel but by Rand and Shai'tan, directly.

Yes, I thought that too. I wonder if those worlds persist after the Last Battle, if they could be accessed by Portal Stones.


View original postRJ has basically confirmed the theory of Mirror Worlds/Worlds of Ifs indirectly, that is when asked if the dimension inhabited by the Finns was a "World of If" he answered that no, their realm wasn't a reflection like the Mirror Worlds. There is more than the dimension inhabited by humans, but the Mirror Worlds aren't real in the sense of concrete "stand alone" worlds like the human world, that of the Ogier, or Sindhol. It's been pointed out that the further they strayed from reality the less tangible and logical they became. Even the world visited in TGH was "faded".. with everything the senses can perceive muted.

I'd always imagined the world we had been following was as real as the other ones, and their 'fading' was merely a factor of how likely it was to occur - how many variations on the Pattern included those events. But if what you say is true, then I must have been mistaken.

The first rule of being a ninja is "do no harm". Unless you intend to do harm, then do lots of harm.

It's fairly obvious, Jordan-style (ie: a few cl;ues, you have to think it up yourself) - 30/07/2013 02:56:55 PM 966 Views

At that point the Shadow had PLENTY of resources in Illian though. - 18/08/2013 01:06:06 PM 892 Views

Rand (or ter'angreal Rand) seemed to think it would. - 20/08/2013 03:34:29 AM 733 Views

Right, so Rand either serves the Shadow in all worlds or none. - 20/08/2013 04:58:51 AM 770 Views

That's pretty much what I think, and also why I don't think there's one 'real' world. - 22/08/2013 04:01:44 AM 792 Views

Yeah, it works on that level, as noted in that response: - 22/08/2013 08:40:30 AM 846 Views
