The Empress and the oath rod artois Send a noteboard - 09/12/2009 07:25:36 PM
Does anyone think that Fortuona and Egwene could reach a compromise where the Seanchan release the damane to the Aes Sedai for training provided that the ex-damane take a fourth oath of fealty to the Empress? It seems unlikely now, but if Fortuona saves Egwene (again), might Egwene and her experience changes of heart? Fortuona will soon realize that circles are too powerful for individual damane to match, and it might occur to her that the oath rod is as good a leash as a leash. Better, she will not have to worry about renegade suldam.

wishful thinking if you ask me. The point is "freedom" from leashes. Having the take oaths is worse. *NM* amirebram - 09/12/2009 07:46:35 PM 305 Views
I think we already know Egwene's position on a "Fourth Oath" Light in the Night - 09/12/2009 08:17:11 PM 938 Views

I'd rather see them keep the a'dam, and just leash all the current sul'dam imlad - 18/12/2009 03:04:22 AM 835 Views
Fortuona didn't save Egwene and a Fourth Oath to an Empress is worse than what Elaida wanted. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 09/12/2009 08:18:17 PM 711 Views

Don't be so quick to judge these two societies yet. redhand - 10/12/2009 05:06:33 AM 720 Views
Exactly *NM* artois - 10/12/2009 05:17:59 AM 271 Views
yet both groups hold highly influential positions within their societies without being shunned *NM* darius_sedai - 10/12/2009 06:31:15 AM 287 Views
I don't know about being 'quick' - we've had at least 8 books to become familiar with the cultures RugbyPlayingAshaman - 11/12/2009 03:18:32 PM 762 Views

When did Tuon save Egwene ? *NM* Simon - 10/12/2009 11:49:29 AM 283 Views
It refers to part of Egwene's dream that is yet unfulfilled. It COULD mean Tuon save her. *NM* redhand - 10/12/2009 03:46:15 PM 277 Views
