I don't say it's impossible... Etzel Send a noteboard - 12/11/2009 03:11:17 PM
I just say it makes no sense.. ;)
At least in my opinion.

BS obviously means that the other plotlines, which are behind Rand's and Egwene's, will be brought to the same point in ToM, namely Perrin, Mat, Elayne, likely Aviendha, Lan, Loial, Fain, etc.

However, Graendal was tied to Rand's plotline, which isn't behind in the timeline, but was pretty much concluded in TGS for now. As far as we know, Graendal has no relevance in the plotlines of the others, because she had to concentrate on Rand to fulfill Moridin's orders (Graendal even says in TGS that she doesn't care about the other two ta'veren). Since ToM will - according to BS - anyway be a less focused book than TGS (probably because there are more plotlines), it makes no sense for BS to confuse the readers even more about the timeline by giving a likely redundant PoV from Graendal before her death (and AFAIK, something like this was never done in the series). As BS indicated, other characters will just mention Graendal in ToM.

Sanderson eliminates a particular somebody from consideration as Asmodean's killer - 11/11/2009 05:18:48 PM 1644 Views
He didn't say if she did or did not. - 11/11/2009 05:27:34 PM 626 Views
I definately did not see conclusive evidence; in fact... - 11/11/2009 05:32:20 PM 694 Views
Yes, Brandon did. I edited my original message to add in another quote from Brandon...see above *NM* - 11/11/2009 05:33:27 PM 332 Views
That still doesn't say if she did or did not. - 11/11/2009 05:39:12 PM 600 Views
It eliminates for the following - 11/11/2009 05:44:29 PM 631 Views
That's quite a leap of logic... - 11/11/2009 06:31:21 PM 741 Views

You make a faulty assumption - 11/11/2009 08:06:52 PM 648 Views
NO! - 11/11/2009 09:07:39 PM 556 Views
Why? - 11/11/2009 06:32:10 PM 544 Views
Re: Why? - 11/11/2009 07:48:14 PM 564 Views
Logical? - 11/11/2009 09:16:18 PM 570 Views
Er? I think you're reading it wrong. - 11/11/2009 06:32:17 PM 565 Views
I can't follow your logic - 11/11/2009 06:33:41 PM 522 Views
Re: I can't follow your logic - 11/11/2009 07:47:27 PM 602 Views
I'm sorry but you are terribly wrong. - 11/11/2009 08:34:56 PM 557 Views
That is a fallacious leap of logic. - 11/11/2009 06:50:13 PM 573 Views
Yes, but... - 11/11/2009 07:49:39 PM 545 Views
That is still erroneous. - 11/11/2009 08:10:15 PM 528 Views
your interpretation is wrong - 11/11/2009 05:47:53 PM 587 Views
Re: your interpretation is wrong - 11/11/2009 07:51:01 PM 563 Views
I repeat, your interpretation is wrong. - 11/11/2009 08:15:43 PM 562 Views
I generally agree... - 11/11/2009 06:11:46 PM 648 Views
Re: I generally agree... - 11/11/2009 08:01:31 PM 626 Views
I'm not a writer... - 11/11/2009 08:48:25 PM 602 Views
Agree - 18/11/2009 11:22:09 PM 486 Views
There's nothing in those quotes that even touches on who killed Asmodean. - 11/11/2009 06:40:31 PM 563 Views
This logic is lacking as well - 11/11/2009 10:17:48 PM 604 Views
Your comments make sense. - 11/11/2009 11:29:29 PM 479 Views

But do you agree that Graendal cannot reveal herself if she got balefired? *NM* - 11/11/2009 08:07:53 PM 304 Views
Sure she can reveal herself! Even if she got Balefired! - 11/11/2009 08:52:49 PM 610 Views
this is what happens when you get interrupted in the middle of a post *NM* - 11/11/2009 09:28:01 PM 290 Views
What? Did you double post? - 11/11/2009 09:49:15 PM 500 Views
According to Etzel, this is impossible - 12/11/2009 04:14:47 AM 547 Views
Why is it impossible? You can't have parallel timelines? *NM* - 12/11/2009 11:29:45 AM 278 Views
I don't say it's impossible... - 12/11/2009 03:11:17 PM 547 Views
This was done in the series before... - 12/11/2009 03:40:58 PM 492 Views
I meant... - 12/11/2009 04:02:33 PM 576 Views

that proved nothing. *NM* - 11/11/2009 10:46:15 PM 257 Views
Rather pointless, really. *NM* - 12/11/2009 01:08:14 AM 238 Views
Uh, I read the exact opposite - 12/11/2009 04:13:45 AM 528 Views

there was a bit more before it - 12/11/2009 05:03:20 AM 488 Views
Not so suspicious if he's read some fan reactions/theories. - 12/11/2009 11:48:30 AM 516 Views
Which he clearly said he did and LOL'd at. *NM* - 18/11/2009 11:33:58 PM 281 Views
Maybe I missed something. - 12/11/2009 03:02:59 PM 499 Views
Yeah, BS will reveal it either in ToM or AMoL. *NM* - 12/11/2009 03:12:16 PM 232 Views
