I disagree; as I explained in the other posts the parallels are there in an ironic way. *NM*

This seems like a perfect example of foreshadowing. While you are right that Aran'gar implies that she killed her allies, if we just take this quote, it exactly describes Graendal's death before it happened.
The only parallel between Aran'gar's statement and Graendal's death was that she died. Aran'gar is clearly stating that she allied with people in the War of Power and then killed them later when she'd used them. That has absolutely nothing to do with Graendal being balefired by her arch-enemy, the Dragon Reborn. Saying that Aran'gar is foreshadowing Graendal's death is as true as saying that Sammael foreshadowed Lanfear's death when he said he'd kill her.
Ironic foreshadowing of Graendal's death?

Hmmm, I don't think so. I think it may be indicative of his own end, though.

I don't follow your logic here

Still, this quote doesn't foreshadow Aran'gar's death at all. *NM*

Wait, have I read this passage wrong??

That was my interpretation as well, when I read it in the book. *NM*

I don't really see "my fellow bad guys are going to die" as being terribly prophetic

Arangar's allies die because she kills them, not because of some random twists of fate...

If you're referring to the reference to "those who found graves", then it fits most Forsaken deaths

It doesn't fit with Graendal's demise enough to have been hinting at it
