go re-read my statements and quit putting words in my mouth please. darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 16/01/2010 03:59:52 PM
I believe one of the FS Forsaken taught Elza the weaves and discovered the Compulsion. Probably in TAR where they could not remove it, or were possibly instructed to leave it Semirhage. Removing Compulsion as stated by Rand/LTT is similar to Healing, it's also possible that only Semirhage of the FS has the ability to remove it.

I find it hard to believe that SH was able to implant knowledge into Elza, yet be unable to touch a Compulsion on her mind... especially since we know he has not been able to tell specific weaves apart in the past.

Your entire theory is centered on an interpretation of a quote from the author stating that Elza had been made into SH tool... nothing in that quote even says SH made her his tool!

I find it doubtful that Graendal (or Cyndane/Moggy) were actually in the manor. It is possible that SH has a whole new array of abilities inlcuding being able to implant knowledge and sense specific weaves of Saidar, but to me it's simply easier to have told Graendal to yank Elza into TAR, teach her the weaves... at which point she said "well look at that ... she's under a compulsion".

Elza's Compulsion - 14/01/2010 08:41:04 PM 1890 Views
I think Graendal was involved on some level in this part of the story - 14/01/2010 09:12:05 PM 821 Views
I disagree - 14/01/2010 09:27:27 PM 675 Views
except work with Semirhage! - 14/01/2010 09:34:37 PM 606 Views
Well... - 14/01/2010 09:43:40 PM 676 Views
SH can't channel thus can't teach Elza anything *NM* - 14/01/2010 10:20:19 PM 239 Views
Yeah, but according to BS, he apparently could "give her the knowledge". *shrug* *NM* - 15/01/2010 07:16:22 AM 215 Views
that's your interpretation of the quote - 15/01/2010 05:58:30 PM 513 Views
This and the others quotes suggest that only SH and Elza were involved *NM* - 16/01/2010 09:51:24 AM 203 Views
As I said that's certainly one of of interpreting the quotes - 16/01/2010 03:46:55 PM 455 Views
The question is... - 16/01/2010 03:59:24 PM 472 Views
Re: The question is... - 16/01/2010 04:02:55 PM 451 Views
Yeah, as I said elsewhere, would be a nice question for BS, if there was another Forsaken. *NM* - 16/01/2010 04:08:05 PM 487 Views
I bet you anything he'd giva a big fat RAFO to that - 16/01/2010 04:08:58 PM 462 Views
BS spoke quite openly about this scene, though - 16/01/2010 04:16:09 PM 474 Views
always worth a try, but wasn't he asked to be less open recently? - 16/01/2010 04:31:54 PM 463 Views
Shaidar Haran can't channel. - 14/01/2010 09:34:51 PM 811 Views
I know... - 14/01/2010 09:45:15 PM 674 Views
I agree with you, for a related but slightly different reason ... - 14/01/2010 09:58:28 PM 754 Views
That doesn't prove anything... - 14/01/2010 10:07:46 PM 690 Views
It proves enough for me ... - 14/01/2010 10:26:28 PM 585 Views
Re: That doesn't prove anything... - 15/01/2010 11:03:05 AM 426 Views
not really - 15/01/2010 05:29:25 PM 475 Views
I don't understand your theory - 16/01/2010 05:08:03 PM 438 Views
It's very simple - 16/01/2010 06:17:36 PM 427 Views
So in other words - 17/01/2010 06:31:58 PM 546 Views
no I'd continue to insist that something disproved was correct - 17/01/2010 06:43:41 PM 444 Views

I'm talking about implanting knowledge into someone elses head - 18/01/2010 05:37:32 AM 458 Views
Here's Brandon's one answer - 18/01/2010 05:20:20 PM 460 Views
But... - 18/01/2010 05:48:54 PM 455 Views
Exactly my point - 18/01/2010 06:24:25 PM 496 Views
But by this logic... - 18/01/2010 06:50:43 PM 458 Views
Yes... - 18/01/2010 07:00:40 PM 502 Views
While you are right... - 18/01/2010 08:44:19 PM 474 Views
as we've discussed in another thread - 18/01/2010 09:08:56 PM 849 Views
I mean... - 19/01/2010 02:21:39 PM 467 Views
Weren't they specifically called Weaves that haven't been seen since the AoL? - 19/01/2010 05:26:38 PM 485 Views
"Elza had been given knowledge of several rarely known weaves" is the quote. - 19/01/2010 06:14:22 PM 424 Views
Well if they were secret Ajah weaves someone would have recognized them *NM* - 19/01/2010 06:21:19 PM 214 Views
Maybe secret BA weaves... - 19/01/2010 06:37:42 PM 676 Views
Possible since she was the only BA in the area - 19/01/2010 06:40:38 PM 705 Views
See, I think there's reason for her presence to be kept secret... - 18/01/2010 09:10:43 PM 507 Views
I have a hard time... - 19/01/2010 02:17:52 PM 515 Views
I agree with you - 19/01/2010 04:45:59 PM 445 Views
and you may very well be correct - 19/01/2010 05:39:02 PM 666 Views
Yet Rand/LTT tells us only a few chapters later - 14/01/2010 10:27:57 PM 542 Views
Anything is possible ... - 14/01/2010 10:54:46 PM 539 Views
who knows - 14/01/2010 11:21:43 PM 508 Views
It's not all that convoluted, though ... - 15/01/2010 03:26:01 PM 444 Views
Cyndane/Moggy/Graendal it all amounts to the same in the end - 15/01/2010 05:57:10 PM 595 Views

Good point! - 15/01/2010 07:19:00 AM 526 Views
Re: Good point! - 15/01/2010 05:30:12 PM 422 Views
I agree - 16/01/2010 09:50:09 AM 409 Views
what doesn't make sense about this to me - 15/01/2010 06:04:45 PM 492 Views
Re: what doesn't make sense about this to me - 15/01/2010 06:29:59 PM 487 Views
damn double posting - 15/01/2010 07:04:56 PM 433 Views
As it is often the case... - 16/01/2010 09:30:56 AM 523 Views
go re-read my statements and quit putting words in my mouth please. - 16/01/2010 03:59:52 PM 483 Views
Well... - 16/01/2010 04:14:28 PM 383 Views
as I said it's also possible that SH has new abilities - 16/01/2010 04:33:30 PM 423 Views
Re: I think Graendal was involved on some level in this part of the story - 14/01/2010 09:30:53 PM 523 Views
Uhhh? - 14/01/2010 09:13:13 PM 671 Views
One point - 14/01/2010 09:20:09 PM 613 Views
Re: One point - 14/01/2010 09:32:00 PM 535 Views
Elza truly believes that... - 14/01/2010 09:38:35 PM 540 Views
Elza "found a reason to follow the Compulsion" - 14/01/2010 11:23:33 PM 581 Views
So, it came from her, and would not go when the Compulsion was removed. - 15/01/2010 05:56:32 AM 516 Views
fair enough - 16/01/2010 04:34:05 PM 558 Views
Not quite - 14/01/2010 09:38:45 PM 564 Views
