It's importance lies in it's strategic location. Rurouni_Kenshin Send a noteboard - 16/12/2009 04:46:20 AM
Compared to the Shadowspawn in the Blight, the Asha'man in the Black Tower, the Aiel or the Seanchan, who cares about Murandy?



The fact that's it's politically disunited and ignored is a plus. He can take over and unify the country without any of the big players really paying attention to him and mass a huge army there. Not only of men, but of Trollocs whom he can bring through a waygate. (It's likely that Coremanda had one somewhere in the country). When the time comes he can blitz five different countries at once. It lies in the center of the land. From there he can attack north towards Caemlyn, southeast towards Far Madding, south towards Illian, southwest towards Ebou Dar, and to the west towards Jehannah.
When the Wolf King carries the hammer, thus are the final days known. When the fox marries the raven, and the trumpets of battle are blown.

But it's still a small country Sidious - 15/12/2009 03:06:24 PM 567 Views
Again, Murandy might be a bit smaller Etzel - 15/12/2009 03:10:11 PM 574 Views

The Dragonsworn made chaos in half of the Westlands. Etzel - 15/12/2009 04:55:00 PM 785 Views
Agreed, only Sammael, Rhavin and Be'lal really laid claim to nations darius_sedai - 15/12/2009 07:12:17 PM 536 Views
to confirm you amirebram - 15/12/2009 10:47:22 PM 553 Views
I'm just not convinced that this would be a coup major enough to earn Demandred DO Kudos. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/12/2009 03:06:54 PM 545 Views
As said, controlling Murandy plus chaos by the Dragonsworn in 6 Westland nations. *NM* Etzel - 15/12/2009 03:11:25 PM 238 Views
well no, arad doman and tarabon were not his.... *NM* mazza3 - 15/12/2009 03:57:27 PM 242 Views
Umm.., care to elaborate? *NM* Etzel - 15/12/2009 04:10:15 PM 233 Views
I was pretty sure that the Dragonsworn as a fighting force were destroyed. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/12/2009 04:07:38 PM 496 Views
But the Dragonsworn caused much chaos everywhere they were through the series... Etzel - 15/12/2009 04:28:42 PM 484 Views
But that's not the Shadow's aim. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/12/2009 06:32:38 PM 498 Views
What if the only way to free the DO involves the world lacking the order necessary to contain him? darius_sedai - 15/12/2009 11:59:47 PM 472 Views
I have always said that Demandred is loosely based on Hannibal Barca... Shannow - 15/12/2009 04:29:22 PM 559 Views
Those a pretty flimsy conformities, IMO... Etzel - 15/12/2009 04:53:04 PM 525 Views
Of course.. Shannow - 15/12/2009 05:06:04 PM 497 Views
The Seanchan have elephants too ... S'redit I think they call them darius_sedai - 16/12/2009 12:04:40 AM 548 Views
Yes, but with so many Trollocs who needs vast armies of men? darius_sedai - 15/12/2009 07:15:08 PM 504 Views

well, it's not like the Forsaken have been particularly impressive thus far darius_sedai - 16/12/2009 06:51:38 PM 470 Views
It's about the impact of action. Timing. amirebram - 15/12/2009 10:53:03 PM 489 Views
Why does Demandred say: "We" will be ready? Why not "I" will be ready? Shannow - 15/12/2009 04:06:42 PM 649 Views
Well... Etzel - 15/12/2009 04:22:57 PM 521 Views

It is insignificant. Fanatic-Templar - 15/12/2009 10:49:20 PM 476 Views
It's importance lies in it's strategic location. Rurouni_Kenshin - 16/12/2009 04:46:20 AM 491 Views
I think some Murandians might mention Trollocs gathering there. Fanatic-Templar - 16/12/2009 07:05:29 AM 507 Views
what if they're wearing dresses and lady masks? *NM* Deadsy - 16/12/2009 09:10:57 AM 230 Views
Do the ladies in Murandy wear masks? I don't recall. Fanatic-Templar - 16/12/2009 09:24:46 AM 486 Views
masks to look like ladies *NM* Deadsy - 16/12/2009 04:11:07 PM 232 Views
Note to self: Avoid the Murandian ladies... *NM* BlackAdder - 16/12/2009 05:06:04 PM 242 Views
Moridin is gathering the Trollocs in the Blight, as we learn in TGS! Etzel - 16/12/2009 12:13:38 PM 470 Views
A Murandian army is insignificant. Fanatic-Templar - 16/12/2009 07:59:54 PM 482 Views
For example, the Great Captain Bryne doesn't agree with you... Etzel - 16/12/2009 08:25:19 PM 480 Views
Maybe he's based in an alternate universe? BlackAdder - 16/12/2009 09:26:53 PM 457 Views
He doesn't? Fanatic-Templar - 16/12/2009 11:37:34 PM 454 Views
Like the supposed unimportance of Murandy, it's a typical misunderstanding... Etzel - 17/12/2009 11:56:16 AM 548 Views
Re: A Murandian army is insignificant. Sidious - 16/12/2009 08:27:28 PM 511 Views
Surely you jest. Fanatic-Templar - 16/12/2009 11:39:23 PM 412 Views
Re: Surely you jest. Sidious - 17/12/2009 06:35:57 AM 472 Views
Well that depends. Fanatic-Templar - 17/12/2009 08:33:12 PM 476 Views
As said, it's additional chaos and strife. Etzel - 16/12/2009 12:01:05 PM 872 Views
Its illogical to assume that Westlanders... Heiko - 16/12/2009 12:25:08 AM 489 Views
But that is exactly... Etzel - 16/12/2009 11:53:11 AM 489 Views
I agree mostly. It's a common RJ theme Deadsy - 16/12/2009 07:42:39 AM 537 Views
Honestly, at this point BlackAdder - 16/12/2009 09:07:35 AM 494 Views
In my view... Etzel - 16/12/2009 12:10:20 PM 469 Views

Kisman's pov shows Demandred has been involved in the BT Light in the Night - 17/12/2009 06:01:49 AM 579 Views

You're right Light in the Night - 17/12/2009 12:33:35 PM 492 Views
Interesting. BlackAdder - 17/12/2009 05:41:20 PM 433 Views
Aran'gar playing Demandred... Etzel - 17/12/2009 06:23:23 PM 477 Views
Ah, right that order is certainly out of character with Demandred. *NM* BlackAdder - 17/12/2009 06:40:32 PM 203 Views
