This could go either way.... Jeordam Send a noteboard - 02/02/2010 06:14:21 PM

- Compulsion that disappears on delving has never been seen or heard of in the series. It's pure speculation at best.

Its just variation on a theme. We have already seen weaves which dissapate upon contact with another weave (Rand & triggering the wards in Illian). And when it comes to channeling...everything is speculation until it happens. We didn't know that a gateway could be forced to remain open with another weave...until it was done. Either way you wanna look at it...its certainly not outside the realm of possible.


The most likely scenario is that whoever set the Compulsion was indeed balefired. To me the question is whether or not that was actually Graendal, since Nynaeve notes that the weave is different from the one she lifted from Kerb.


It is very possible that Graendal can bust out different weaves for Compulsion. She has a Talent for it after all. As per someone else who could do it?

Unless Graendal has some Black Ajah handy who are strong enough to get Compulsion going...who knows.

We do know that it takes a decent amount of the power to get it done....

So your name is Graendal.... Jeordam - 01/02/2010 09:18:00 PM 1716 Views
one of the reasons I'm at a loss with her death ... along with the lead-up being clumsy *NM* darius_sedai - 01/02/2010 09:36:29 PM 732 Views
She very well... Jeordam - 01/02/2010 11:13:50 PM 1024 Views

Ha! "Graendal actually kills Asmodean". A very bold claim. *NM* Etzel - 02/02/2010 10:51:40 AM 632 Views
Bold like saying that water is wet.... Jeordam - 02/02/2010 05:46:54 PM 667 Views
I am now split with a 80% belief it's Graendal and 20% that it's Moghedien *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 02/02/2010 06:11:47 PM 412 Views
Moghedien.... Jeordam - 02/02/2010 06:15:41 PM 759 Views

Egwene was faintly forkrooted, not heavily. Fanatic-Templar - 02/02/2010 10:24:55 PM 713 Views
It was heavy enough to nullify her ability almost completely by TGS RugbyPlayingAshaman - 02/02/2010 10:38:04 PM 634 Views

The lead up was clumsy because her death scene was rather forced. Libby - 09/02/2010 11:11:21 PM 868 Views
Yes, pretty much. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 01/02/2010 11:21:31 PM 781 Views
Couple of flaws in that reasoning Lord Haart - 02/02/2010 07:56:35 AM 1043 Views
