But Graendal could have told SH! Nothing in this answer precludes that.
Why not Mesaana or Demandred? Linking Graendal to this whole thing is utterly absurd. It would mean that Graendal would have had to arrive there NOT knowing about Elza, and then coincidentally delved her and found a surprise.
There's one reason why that wouldn't be true. The moment Graendal channeled to remove the compulsion, Semi would have sensed her. She would have suspected FS involvement in her escape, and smelled a trap.
Lol. You mean with dozens of Aes Sedai on the estate, Semirhage would have been surprised to sense saidar? As if Graendal would be clumsy enough to not hide her weaves anyway.
Graendal could have known for a long time that Elza was under a Compulsion and just never cared to do anything about it since this Compulsion actually forwarded the goals of the DO, or at least didn't hinder them.
It's as simple as she mentioned that Elza would be a poor tool unless it was removed ... I mainly have a hard time believing that SH can now magically implant AoL weaves into peoples heads.

SH can't channel thus can't teach Elza anything *NM*

Yeah, but according to BS, he apparently could "give her the knowledge". *shrug* *NM*

that's your interpretation of the quote
15/01/2010 05:58:30 PM

This and the others quotes suggest that only SH and Elza were involved *NM*
16/01/2010 09:51:24 AM

As I said that's certainly one of of interpreting the quotes

Yeah, as I said elsewhere, would be a nice question for BS, if there was another Forsaken. *NM*

always worth a try, but wasn't he asked to be less open recently?

I agree with you, for a related but slightly different reason ...

Weren't they specifically called Weaves that haven't been seen since the AoL?

"Elza had been given knowledge of several rarely known weaves" is the quote.

Well if they were secret Ajah weaves someone would have recognized them *NM*

Elza "found a reason to follow the Compulsion"
14/01/2010 11:23:33 PM

So, it came from her, and would not go when the Compulsion was removed.
