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.


Wait, why would most people think that? I mean, Min clearly said Cadsuane and we all knew Sorilea would help. But I can't think of a time when I thought Moiraine would help with that lesson.

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


Oh, I guess you didn't read the last few books. Rand still has issues, dude. He has issues up the bumhole.

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.


Wait, what the hell are you talking about here. Why wouldn't she be amongst the stronger channelers? Are you smoking crack? Just because Cyndane isn't as strong as she was as Lanfear does not mean this will translate to Moiraine especially since Moiraine didn't die as Cyndane did.

Moiraine has 20 years of active search for Rand, thought on the Prophecies that most AS do not have since most didn't know the LB was on the doorstep until recently, and her Moiraine kickassness. This is quite valuable to Rand, not to mention that Rand semi-trusts her more than any women except Elayne, Avi and Min.

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


She knows everything. She even knows about your leopard spotted underwear.

Your mom. That's right. The cat is out of the bag. Your mom.

Just because he's learned to laugh doesn't mean he trusts Aes Sedai - 10/11/2009 02:27:53 PM 640 Views
