Sorry, that was the Glossary... fionwe1987 Send a noteboard - 21/01/2010 08:07:56 PM

When did Merana comment on Elayne?

Merana says that till Elayne, no one had come to the Tower who matched Cadsuane, much less surpass her.

But the Glossary says:

Thought to have been born around 705 NE in Ghealdan, which would make her the oldest living Aes Sedai, she was also the strongest in
the Power found for a thousand years or more until the advent of Nynaeve, Elayne and Egwene and even they do not far out-step her.

This is even better. Apparently, even Nynaeve isn't that far above Cadsuane. Which of course makes Egwene and Elayne pretty clos to her.

My Lanfear/Cyndane theory has been disproven. Shishka - 20/01/2010 05:12:58 PM 2767 Views
It was discussed Etzel - 20/01/2010 05:27:43 PM 1113 Views

Re: Maybe... Shishka - 20/01/2010 08:53:47 PM 882 Views
Yeah, that would be a possibility! *NM* Etzel - 20/01/2010 09:01:26 PM 806 Views
That doesn't really jive with Aran'gar though darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 09:03:35 PM 826 Views
But... Etzel - 20/01/2010 09:11:47 PM 803 Views
I think it's pretty obvious that pretty much any man is going to be darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 09:41:40 PM 760 Views
The idea behind this theory is... Etzel - 21/01/2010 07:15:19 AM 938 Views
Maybe there is a difference between male souls and female souls ... Shishka - 20/01/2010 09:35:57 PM 828 Views
Plausible darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 09:45:21 PM 920 Views
Actually, I didn't mean to imply that my idea of female strength is related to body size ... Shishka - 20/01/2010 10:10:48 PM 808 Views
LOL ... I hear ya on that darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 10:17:02 PM 880 Views
I'm so pleased this theory is false! darius_sedai - 12/12/2010 05:00:06 PM 738 Views
people didn't like it when I proposed it kcf - 20/01/2010 05:31:18 PM 1065 Views
Thanks. Shishka - 20/01/2010 08:36:58 PM 941 Views
I don't like the idea that she was healed by a woman Skeeve the Great - 20/01/2010 05:48:19 PM 886 Views
I agree, and it seems unlikely that a new "better" method darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 06:07:04 PM 811 Views
It's NOT due to Stilling or Healing and it's NOT due to Cyndane's weaker body... Shannow - 20/01/2010 06:46:08 PM 926 Views
I think Moiraine's gaining strength seems a little too LotR. darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 06:55:34 PM 835 Views
I think Moraine gaining strength is VERY LotR. That's why I think RJ went with it... *NM* Shannow - 20/01/2010 06:57:39 PM 526 Views
yet he moved away from LotR very early in the series *NM* darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 06:59:05 PM 491 Views
I also like that theory Sidious - 20/01/2010 07:14:20 PM 872 Views
I think BS's error regarding Cyndane's strength can also be explained by this theory... Shannow - 20/01/2010 07:17:59 PM 827 Views
Yes perhaps Sidious - 20/01/2010 07:25:06 PM 864 Views
Cadsuane is considerably stronger than Moiraine darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 07:31:42 PM 842 Views
Nope... Shannow - 20/01/2010 07:38:55 PM 818 Views
I disagree as usual darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 07:45:29 PM 728 Views
We don't know the magnitude of what Aes Sedai consider a significant strength difference... Shannow - 20/01/2010 07:54:38 PM 819 Views
You are comparing Male and female strength here darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 08:18:45 PM 899 Views
Why do you misquote Moiraine? Shannow - 20/01/2010 08:39:55 PM 832 Views
Agreeing to disagree here ... we interpret the evidence differently and it's futile to argue. darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 08:41:08 PM 1000 Views
Cadsuane isn't too strong Sidious - 21/01/2010 04:19:41 AM 838 Views
Actually... fionwe1987 - 21/01/2010 05:57:43 AM 817 Views

Re: I think BS's error regarding Cyndane's strength can also be explained by this theory... Shishka - 20/01/2010 07:43:28 PM 826 Views
Agree with both your comments... Shannow - 20/01/2010 07:46:07 PM 839 Views
Re: Agree with both your comments... Shishka - 20/01/2010 08:24:16 PM 875 Views
Hmm ... I think maybe BS DID know about Cyndane being stronger than Graendal ... Shishka - 20/01/2010 09:20:31 PM 835 Views
But seriously... Etzel - 21/01/2010 12:14:16 PM 728 Views
Re: But seriously... Sidious - 21/01/2010 12:34:18 PM 902 Views
I don't think it has to be so unique... Etzel - 21/01/2010 01:13:00 PM 861 Views
Re: I don't think it has to be so unique... Sidious - 21/01/2010 04:49:42 PM 846 Views
Also would explain the question of why Moiraine left the angreal on the wagon instead of using it... Shannow - 21/01/2010 02:30:46 PM 839 Views
I think it makes more sense... Etzel - 21/01/2010 02:34:30 PM 866 Views
Lanfear would have been toast if Moiraine had the angreal, plus foreknowledge of the confrontation.. Shannow - 21/01/2010 02:38:57 PM 817 Views
In her letter to Thom Etzel - 21/01/2010 02:55:32 PM 844 Views
One other tiny thing Sareitha Sedai - 21/01/2010 03:18:03 PM 798 Views
Yes, and that is often overlooked Sidious - 21/01/2010 04:48:08 PM 745 Views
That's my interpretation, also ... Shishka - 21/01/2010 04:00:35 PM 723 Views
Nods in agreement darius_sedai - 21/01/2010 06:24:59 PM 884 Views
I think the "bubble of hope" was simply ... Shishka - 21/01/2010 07:08:44 PM 673 Views
Agreed *NM* darius_sedai - 21/01/2010 11:38:43 PM 505 Views
No, I don't think so Sidious - 21/01/2010 04:43:53 PM 907 Views
I always figured Lanfear bargained away some power to escape the Finns beetnemesis - 20/01/2010 07:37:31 PM 819 Views

Re: My Lanfear/Cyndane theory has been disproven. callandor1000 - 20/01/2010 07:51:38 PM 1075 Views

Yeah ... Shishka - 20/01/2010 08:43:24 PM 865 Views
The closest I ever saw was the "Lightfriend/Purple Ajah" theory darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 08:46:20 PM 1095 Views
Yeah, the Verin revelation was cool... Etzel - 20/01/2010 08:48:53 PM 809 Views
Re: That idea has also been disproven ... callandor1000 - 21/01/2010 05:12:45 PM 800 Views
I think it may be more simple than it seems. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 21/01/2010 04:15:05 PM 920 Views
Doesn't fit with BS's words Etzel - 21/01/2010 04:27:43 PM 758 Views
Also ... Shishka - 21/01/2010 04:32:58 PM 723 Views
I don't think BS words or Cyndane's comments really prove anything. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 21/01/2010 04:42:59 PM 856 Views
BS says that Cyndane is truly weaker. So, this theory is out. *NM* Etzel - 21/01/2010 04:46:48 PM 549 Views

Re: LOL ... I love that you of all people are going to fall back on this argument! Sidious - 22/01/2010 08:05:08 PM 908 Views
and you have zero evidence that Lanfear is considerably stronger than the others darius_sedai - 22/01/2010 11:23:11 PM 671 Views
It's also a totally abstruse explanation, though, and therefore certainy wrong. *NM* Etzel - 22/01/2010 11:55:17 AM 651 Views

actually if one really wants to figure out what happened to Cyndane darius_sedai - 21/01/2010 07:00:33 PM 980 Views
Dumb question, but do transmigrated souls need to re-reach their full potential? Gher - 21/01/2010 06:19:57 PM 819 Views
It seems like they start out as powerful as they were, but I don't think it's ever been stated *NM* darius_sedai - 21/01/2010 06:44:45 PM 539 Views
Agreed. *NM* Shishka - 21/01/2010 07:03:13 PM 465 Views
