Threads Woven of Shadow
She used Compulsion so often like a hammer that one might forget that she could wield the weaker forms of it with great delicacy, twisting a mind’s path so subtly that even the closest examination might miss every trace of her.
That you brought this quote up. It just goes to show that Graendal could wield both the hammer and the scalpel as she wanted. One then wonders why she would lay the (obvious) Compulsion Smack Down on someone who is highly likely to be delved.
And just so everyone can read it again...I think that Graendal is dead for the simple reason that the end of the series is 2 books away. If this was earlier, I wouldn't trust this off screen death farther than I could pick up and toss Bela.

"Well known" and "largely forgotten" are about as opposite as you can get!

I don't think so.

He used scouts to find the place?

Or it could be due to two different authors writing the story and nothing else. *NM*

Seems absolutely obvious to me - she was tricking Sammael.

Fine, then what if she changed location after Sammael was compromised?

Go re-read it... I said there are discrepancies between what Sammael said and what Rand said

There aren't, really.

so you think a kid who has likely never even seen a map knows the name of a castle

Two possibilities how Kerb knew the name

She's dead, people need to move on. *NM*

I acknowledge that it's possible (even likely) that she is dead

Graendal is Toast with a capital T. Not possibly dead, not likely dead, 100% gone.

The discrepancies are due to the series being over 12 books long...

I'm with you on her probably being dead only because it's so close to the end *NM*

Why was Kerb highly likely to be delved?

Yes; but those pieces of evidence basically separate the 2 schools of thought on her "death scene" *NM*
