I added a note about that in the database. One of his descriptions of the Towers of Midnight was that it was a fortress; the other fits the descriptions of the Tower of Ravens perfectly, so it's clearly a mistake on his part (I transcribed that interview - it was from Budapest). Easy mistake to make.
After all the Towers of Midnight were mentioned in the question, and then RJ himself used the term Towers of Midnight twice in his answer. Would be a pretty strange mistake for him to confuse it with the Tower of Ravens (not impossible, though, considering e.g. his mistake about Graendal not seen at the Cleansing..). It's certainly possible that the Towers of Midnight eventually also became a prison like the Tower of Ravens. We will see.

My point was, he might have been thinking of the PoVs. None of her or people who knew her

I wonder if the first paragraph of AMoL will start with "the air was calm". *NM*
