If Sorilea is a darkfriend then she needed to be told about Elza. The only way this could happen would be if one of the Forsaken was involved.
It's very odd that it was forbidden by Moridin to help Semirhage, a fact that he repeats to Rand. And yet we see SH arrive later using the BA. Moridin either changed his mind and decided to free her/set her up, or SH works alone and doesn't care what the Nae'blis thinks, or this is the work of Mesaana or another Forsaken who managed to get SH to help them.

It's funny, but I know very few women (none) IRL who act like AS, but RJ definitely fits their MO

I don't think I've ever heard a woman actually "sniff" at someone either

Why couldn't have Elza got them?

My gut feeling tells that Sorilea isn't a DF
13/01/2010 11:24:33 AM

I don't think so
13/01/2010 06:02:40 PM

Actually it was very much like a DF

I don't buy it

the thread started by pointing out Verin implies Sorilea may not be on the same side...

Actually, it's not about who stole it. It's about how Elza knew where it was AND

Not quite, IMO
13/01/2010 11:53:46 PM

and Verin told us that you could betray the FS if you could justify it

Elza already had the DB when she freed Semirhage from captivity

Sorilea never saw the wards unraveled. And I'm pretty sure they were inverted.

inverted yes, but she was standing right there when Cadsuane unwove them

As Sorilea closed the door behind the three of them, Cadsuane disarmed the box's traps.

The point was that Sorilea knew two key pieces of information from that moment

She knew only one, and that was known to Bair too...

How do you know Caddy embraced the source only then?
14/01/2010 07:35:00 PM

so you contend that she was walking around holding the Source the whole time?

I think Bsand or RJ stated that Shaidar Haran could not do that himself, which is why he needed Elza

I disagree that Verin would have tried to create suspicion or discord.

that's exactly the type of foreshadowing I would expect
14/01/2010 06:48:25 PM

IMO either she or Bair are a DF
14/01/2010 06:58:57 PM

this is pure RJ
