Graendal told Sammael she likes them tall. 6' is pretty tall for a man. I was thinking about 5'10 for Demandred and Sammael, cementing the almost theme.... Not quite "tall" for a man. Rand also seems very tall.... He's supposed to be of enviable height. No one wants to be 6'6... I know, I have cousins who are so tall and they hate it. Most women don't like it either according to them. Apart from not being able to sit in cars or plane seats easily, its ungainly personally and socially.
The number of very tall men is quite remarkable. I'm 6' and most men are as tall or shorter than me. It makes more sense that Rand is about 6'2 with the male Forsaken a little shorter, and Aielmen at about 6'4 with Bael at a healthy 7'.
Anyway to each his own. If Rahvin can have ++1 power then it matters even less that he is 6'6...
I'm enjoying reading the Companion and it's grammar. It's as if a Japanese person who is learning English wrote many of the parts.... "Mesaana's mind was destroyed during this mental battle..."
