Everyone in Randland writes off Murandy as being unimportant. Most of the readers are doing the same thing. Roedran is mentioned in passing (but several times).
I wouldn't be surprised in the least if Demandred is Roedran, but that doesn't mean he's not doing something with the Asha'man too.
I wouldn't be surprised in the least if Demandred is Roedran, but that doesn't mean he's not doing something with the Asha'man too.
The clues we have rather indicate that Taim reports to Moridin, but is otherwise an independent recruiter and trainer for the Shadow, e.g. Moridin's colors at the BT or the fact that Demandred didn't think it was possible that Flinn is an Asha'man.
Plus, I don't see Taim and Demandred working together or Taim groveling before Demandred, because both have too big egos and are apparently similarly strong.

I'm just not convinced that this would be a coup major enough to earn Demandred DO Kudos.

As said, controlling Murandy plus chaos by the Dragonsworn in 6 Westland nations. *NM*

I was pretty sure that the Dragonsworn as a fighting force were destroyed.

Why does Demandred say: "We" will be ready? Why not "I" will be ready?
