this is from one of the Q&A's of the recent tour
Matt: ...exactly…he was transmigrated into a different body, but still channeling the same power the soul inherits. So considering Jordan's statement about stilling and burning out not affecting the channeling ability of the new life of a soul, is the same for the new life of a soul transmigrated?
Brandon: I’m going to say that transmigrated…if you were burned out and transmigrated you would still be burned out, is my guess.
Matt: Is that a MAFO question? Or…
Brandon: ...that is my guess and you can MAFO it if you want to send it to me, but that is a “I’m pretty sure” answer.
Brandon: I’m going to say that transmigrated…if you were burned out and transmigrated you would still be burned out, is my guess.
Matt: Is that a MAFO question? Or…
Brandon: ...that is my guess and you can MAFO it if you want to send it to me, but that is a “I’m pretty sure” answer.
The implication is that if Lanfear was transmigrated after she had burned out, she would still need healing.
If her soul and been reborn into the pattern, it would have been different.
This is the first I have seen this. It surprises me. In my mind, being burned out/stilled is an injury to the body. For this to be true, it must be an injury to the soul. I don't know that it is significant to the story, but this implies that people reborn after suffering this kind of injury would be unable to channel without healing. If this is not the case, then I don't believe it makes any sense.

I'm betting she decides to stay a non-channeler and put her past behind her. *NM*

The doorway melting and snapping the bond is simple enough for me *NM*

I think that since Moiraine was in another dimension, the Bond passed to the closest holder.

Exactly. Thanks for translating in fewer words than I would have used

that assumes quite a bit about the structure of the bond

no more than the assumptions of the actions take on the other side of the door!

BS not committing to the Cyndane = Lanfear scenario has me wondering as well

The only possibility is "something weird" if Cyndane ISN'T just "Lanfear"

Maybe they put some of Ilyena in Cyndane.

LOL ... Lanfear doesn't need Ilyena to be an LTT stalker!

Right, But Ilyena Doesn't Need Lanfear for That Either.

I'm 99.99% sure RJ said that the DO had to grab a soul quickly after death or it was lost

Agreed, the angreal theory seems most likely IMO (about Lanfear/Cyndane) *NM*

There is no deference, which would be expected in their "game" of hating each other

Moiraine will make a huge difference to TG (Min's viewing) so I think she will need to channel. *NM*

Min doesn't channel, and she makes a big difference. As does Thom. *NM*
