One of the women stronger than Nynaeve is probably a Sharan

First, I know I have no direct evidence on this point, it is all circumstantial (and weak circumstantial evidence at that).
Nonetheless, excluding the Forsaken, RJ has shown us women of exceptional strength among the Aiel (Someryn), among the Seanchan (Alivia), among the Sea Folk (Talaan), and two among Randland people (Nynaeve and Sharina). Symmetry dictates there be at least a great woman (possible a couple) among the Sharans. They haven't played a significant role on camera, but they have played some role and they are definitely in the Big White Book. Further, RJ's notes are 4,000,000 words long. I know he has notes about the Sharans in there somewhere. It seems to reason RJ could have a woman or two above Nynaeve from the pool of Sharan channelers.

Cyndane is "very, very weak"?!

Do you realise what this means! We now have a clear strength list among the female Forsaken...

If you read it in context, the list he is referring to is a female list...

How do we explain BS stating that he is "pretty sure Nynaeve is stronger than Semirhage?"

Talaan and Someryn are pure guesses from Dom...

Elayne at the beginning of PoD thinks Talaan is at least as great as Nyn

I think the clues still point to it being Justice

Maybe Hawkwing took Justice from Amalasan after the Battle of the Jolvaine Pass?

That was the crazy part - I named him as one of LitN's "other channelers producing weapons".

Who is the Aiel chick with all the one power strength? I forget who, but she is Shaido. *NM*
