True to a degree Lord Haart Send a noteboard - 20/11/2009 08:26:20 AM
I mean, yes - Galina, Liandrin, Lanfear, Moggy and now Elaida have all had their comeuppance (Galina's in particular was so bad I almost felt sorry for her - it actually made Faile's part worth reading).

But others have just been balefired, or outright killed. But Semirhage needed to be broken, so that she could be used and discarded by the DO. In fact, her defeat wasn't that different to the other women. They were all broken just the same. I wonder if we'll see something similar happen to any males? (Taim, Demandred, Moridin?)

What I'm wondering now is if she gave anything away, and how useful that information would be.

Nobody's even tried to kill them since Ishamael died, until he gave the order again in KoD. Fanatic-Templar - 13/05/2010 01:13:02 AM 997 Views
