1. He didn't annoy me at all in tGS (except for about three paragraphs). He had a lot of regret, and he made some good decisions finally. I think I was so relieved by this that I couldn't be annoyed. I wasn't bothered by any of his chapters. The only time I was annoyed at all was his big rant on Rand, but he's been ranting about Rand for so long that I'm mostly numb to it.

2. We know from BS's blog that there'll be some Youngling stuff in ToM. My guess is that Gawyn will lead the Younglings again. I think Egwene will bond him, then he'll tell her that he needs to see Elayne, so he'll leave for Caemlyn (Younglings in tow). But he won't tell her that he's also hunting Rand.

The only other reason I can think for the Younglings to stay together and not just dissolve into the Tower Guard is as some sort of honor guard for Egwene.


You summed it up perfectly! Why is Gawine so confused? He main purpose in life is supposed to be to protect the daughter-heir. Why doesn't he get on with it??

someone should really tell him about Rahvin and Gaebril *NM* - 01/11/2009 08:49:03 PM 277 Views
This is Gawyn we're talking about... - 01/11/2009 08:49:09 PM 748 Views
Agreed, Gawyn is a moron. - 02/11/2009 09:24:28 AM 684 Views
I can see it now... - 01/11/2009 08:49:20 PM 831 Views
I liked Gawyn. He's finally something more than a waste of page space. - 02/11/2009 12:10:47 AM 647 Views
Potential to be another Faile-Perrin situation - 02/11/2009 01:18:43 AM 689 Views
He still irritates me for 3, no, 2... let's say 2 and a half reasons - 02/11/2009 02:18:28 AM 691 Views

I agree.... - 02/11/2009 10:07:15 AM 676 Views
I'll be honest - I continue to think he is a moron. I'm glad Gareth Bryne called him out on it. - 04/11/2009 05:37:55 PM 629 Views
I always felt he was just the convenient love interest to Egwene. - 04/11/2009 05:50:06 PM 607 Views
Tam's point about Cadsuane was wholly relevant here, as well - 04/11/2009 11:02:04 PM 603 Views
c'mon.. - 05/11/2009 08:31:31 AM 623 Views
Egwene liked him because he is easy to manipulate. - 05/11/2009 08:45:51 AM 572 Views
Naw, its because he looks like her fantasy pillow friend, Elayne - 05/11/2009 08:47:39 AM 581 Views
