Loved the book, one of the best but one thing really bugged me and that was the above topic, i hate when the rules change like when one moment the ring dream ter'angeral could be used by anyone allowing Siuan and Liane into the world of dreams when they were stilled and then you had Elayne jumping up and down on it cos she could not get it to work cos she could not embrace the source. Well i think Egwene and vora's sa'angreal is another moment when the basic rules were broken. What i mean is she could barely embrace the source,never mind channel! So really she could never ever be able to magnify that little trickle of the power to do much at all, by linking the power through Nicole and the other novices, that power does not increase or should not, its just the user of the angreal/sa'angreal that's power gets magnified, and no matter what or how strong vora's sa'agnreal was,it should not have made much of a difference at that time. Would she not have been better off giving the sa'angreal to nicola or one of the others who had better strength. before anyone says she was magnifying the strength of the linked circle well in the past that's not how it worked, or led the reader to believe it worked, just look at the bowl of the winds and giving angrel to the strongest channellers in the circle..not to the person who controls the circle! anyway, thoughts on this, am i right or am i wrong??

Maybe that's the greater difference between angreal and sa'angreal *NM*

I think sa'angreal are so powerful that even with a marginal Circle, it created an awesome reservoir

That does not necessarily prove the novices are affected - they can sense the amount of the Power

This occurs because it is a sa'angreal

That "mistake" is in character for Egwene. You have the dream ter'angreal wrong, BTW.

I thought only one sa/angreal can be used by a channeler at a time, so no double dipping *NM*

technically, it is an angreal and a ter'angreal, so not two sa/angreal *NM*

Novices are likely to overdraw if given such a fount of power. *NM*
