Why is Moiraine needed? Lordling Send a noteboard - 10/11/2009 11:33:06 AM
Now, I guess most people here thought that Moiraine would be needed to teach Rand laughter and tears. Considering that Moiraine's death is one of the things Rand most regrets, and her name is the first one on the list of dead women in Rand's head.

But, thankfully, it seems that Rand has now resolved his issues.

So, what purpose does Moiraine have now? Obviously she has some part to play, otherwise there'd be no reason to rescue her. Even if she can channel, she's no more among the strongest channelers, so her OP skills probably aren't the reason. I thought she would be needed to tell Rand that the Forsaken (Lanfear/Cyndane) are being resurrected, but now Rand knows that, too.

So, why do we need Moiraine? Does she know something important, perhaps concerning Rand's plan to seal off the DO?

Just because he's learned to laugh doesn't mean he trusts Aes Sedai - 10/11/2009 02:27:53 PM 762 Views
Oh man! but I don't want Rand to revert back to being a total pansy.. He was cool in WH *NM* - 10/11/2009 02:42:04 PM 378 Views
How was he a pansy in FoH? - 10/11/2009 02:45:14 PM 743 Views
Fine, he wasn't a pansy, but I still liked him more in WH - 10/11/2009 03:06:03 PM 774 Views
