I disagree. RugbyPlayingAshaman Send a noteboard - 29/01/2010 05:28:59 PM
Once the political elite and main holders of power were disposed of, keeping stability would have only occupied a portion of her time. In my opinion, this was done fairly earlier on, which is why as soon as Rand was thinking of alternatives, he would be told that they were impossible to implement.

Graendal's death would imply a major logical flaw in the story. fionwe1987 - 25/01/2010 05:18:23 PM 2720 Views
