wait a sec... scalius Send a noteboard - 30/10/2009 04:31:56 PM
Because Elaida is just going to give them Travelling. They don't even know to ask for Travelling considering no one knows the Aes Sedai know it. They were there to capture marath'damane and they failed utterly - they even had some of their damane captured.


...don't have my book w/ me, and I don't recall the exact wording, but I thought it was made pretty clear that the Seanchan A) know about traveling and are desperate to learn the weave B) know the AS know how to travel C) are also desperate to learn the "bomb" weave (their misguided assumption about Elayne's unraveling experience) and D) Were willing to lose bascially everyone involved in the raid provided they got someone who knew the traveling weave.

Every channeler captured will be questioned thouroughly about traveling and the "bomb"....and one such as Elaida will be broken and the weave will be learned. They succeeded. Unless you think Elaida is so strong of will that she will be able to hold that back?
I would slave, to pave the way, to sink your ship of fools.

Well Brandon Sanderson has officially killed off the last volume of the Epic Saga of the Chosen One. Cannoli - 30/10/2009 02:36:19 AM 2444 Views
Life in unfair, just let Egwene have it already. redhand - 30/10/2009 03:11:04 AM 849 Views
I skimmed cannoli's predictable rant. I disagree. I LOVED EVERY CHAPTER! Bookwyrm - 30/10/2009 03:29:24 AM 803 Views
Agreed! *NM* Mats imaginary friend - 30/10/2009 03:47:52 AM 504 Views
I liked her chapters. Mainly because they gave her something to do. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 30/10/2009 09:43:58 PM 721 Views

Ditto. Thought he was a breath of fresh air to the series. Asha'man - 30/10/2009 03:27:43 PM 718 Views
If renewal means someone grossly unfamiliar with the series, sure. Cannoli - 30/10/2009 06:26:19 PM 1242 Views

Yes, he will pull thru 4 u in the end, but Matt still needs to grow up. and fast *NM* Bookwyrm - 30/10/2009 07:32:28 PM 449 Views

Actually, Elaida WILL reveal Traveling. We've seen countless times AS broken easily by the Seanchan. *NM* Bookwyrm - 30/10/2009 05:28:06 PM 417 Views
More than likely, but if anyone could avoid giving it up it would be stubborn, self rightous Elaida. Seriana Sedai - 30/10/2009 09:20:31 PM 610 Views

A personal question: Cannoli, are you threatened by a powerful woman? LTArmstrong - 30/10/2009 07:13:30 PM 818 Views

Tar Valon is a nation Sidious - 31/10/2009 09:20:43 AM 732 Views
The Aes Sedai are not. The Tower as a whole rules the polity of Tar Valon. Cannoli - 31/10/2009 11:34:42 PM 836 Views
The "Elaida's election was illegal because of Black Ajah Sitters" is really an absurd argument Legolas - 01/11/2009 12:06:32 AM 798 Views
It wasn't absurd. Just clever... fionwe1987 - 01/11/2009 03:33:22 AM 820 Views
I wasn't saying the rebels had no cause for rebellion. Just that the election *was* legal. Legolas - 01/11/2009 10:38:59 AM 824 Views
Hmm..... Sidious - 06/11/2009 04:18:14 PM 674 Views
I take it she'll carefully avoid bringing up the war vote, then. *NM* Legolas - 08/11/2009 12:47:21 AM 315 Views
