Forced turnings should be killed too Sidious Send a noteboard - 15/11/2009 07:06:43 AM
I question the morality of this because we've seen how many ways the Dark One and his followers have for forcibly recruiting innocents against their will.


According to RJ, people who are turned against their will darken in spirit and soul to the point that nothing good ever comes from them again. They're irretrievably evil, much like Trollocs or anything else touched by the True Power. You wouldn't even recognise the original person.

Who performs the worst atrocity in this book: Egwene or Rand? (A good Cannoli question) Matrimony Cauthon - 13/11/2009 06:22:50 PM 2160 Views
Given the chance, Egwene would certainly have chosen death herself had she been captured Lordling - 13/11/2009 07:04:02 PM 883 Views
That doesn't make her right, it makes her a coward *NM* Cannoli - 13/11/2009 11:53:50 PM 506 Views
Your hatred and judgment of Egwene is obsessive and at times unreasonable. Like right now. *NM* lord-of-shadow - 14/11/2009 03:56:34 AM 469 Views
In this he his reasonable...I think he is mostly wrong with the statement, but it is reasonable *NM* RabidWombat - 14/11/2009 04:08:35 AM 355 Views
Wrong and unreasonable. krassos - 14/11/2009 11:07:16 PM 889 Views

Because most people often get acclimated to being beaten 3 or more times a day. krassos - 17/11/2009 01:02:37 AM 732 Views

Teenagers at school didn't spend hours a day getting spanked. Repeatedly. For weeks straight. krassos - 20/11/2009 02:13:38 AM 675 Views

And if Verin had been caught, she would have deserved death. Cannoli - 13/11/2009 11:55:13 PM 854 Views
Ordinarily, I would disagree... RabidWombat - 14/11/2009 04:20:28 AM 885 Views

Except for the fact that she never served the Dark One. She was Black Ajah in name only. krassos - 21/11/2009 04:16:48 PM 679 Views
Not true. Verin did in fact serve the DO. She admited as much darius_sedai - 12/12/2009 04:28:56 AM 703 Views

There is a difference between collateral damage and targeting your own people! *NM* Cannoli - 13/11/2009 11:56:10 PM 357 Views
She did not target her own people... fionwe1987 - 14/11/2009 12:39:14 AM 765 Views
You seem to be contradicting yourself here guttering flame - 14/11/2009 07:52:07 AM 782 Views
Because they were indistinct specks high in the sky? *NM* fionwe1987 - 14/11/2009 09:11:15 AM 339 Views
