completly new idea isandorn Send a noteboard - 05/09/2009 10:07:07 PM
Going off of the quote that Rand recognizes the sword from his own memory, i would hesitate to accept the Rhuidean option because there he experienced other's memories. it would be akin to saying that Mat's knowledge of war was from his own memory rather than others.

he only options i can see are either the hero's of the horn, and then there would be the timing issue, OR Rand's memory of it came from his life's seen in the portal stones.

or a much more mundane answer like a book...

It was probably from his time in Rhuidean in the glass pillars *NM* Brian - 05/09/2009 04:57:58 AM 606 Views
That was my first thought too, though I can't think where the Aiel would encounter it *NM* WolfBro 87 - 05/09/2009 05:05:13 AM 513 Views
I couldn't say which of the scenes it would be, but it's the only place I could imagine it being Brian - 05/09/2009 05:11:22 AM 1084 Views
...when would he have had a sword while in the glass pillars? beetnemesis - 06/09/2009 05:19:10 AM 1032 Views
There were other people around in the past other than Aiel. Brian - 06/09/2009 05:34:26 AM 994 Views
I assumed he remembered it because it was Lews Therin's *NM* Deadsy - 05/09/2009 05:18:39 AM 526 Views
But he specifically says that it is from his memories and not Lews Therin's *NM* WolfBro 87 - 05/09/2009 05:20:29 AM 530 Views
Was it just the scabbard or a new sword too? *NM* Cannoli - 05/09/2009 05:30:11 AM 522 Views
Good question, I'm not sure, tho if I had to guess I'd say just the scabbard *NM* WolfBro 87 - 05/09/2009 05:33:08 AM 525 Views
It was the sword CupofDice - 06/09/2009 12:21:55 AM 1080 Views
So think the scabbard is an angreal/ter'angreal? *NM* Gher - 05/09/2009 06:15:45 AM 505 Views
God I hope not, they are entirely too common. *NM* Brian - 05/09/2009 06:21:28 AM 545 Views
It must be... Rand al'Thor - 07/09/2009 04:37:59 AM 1067 Views
Care to elaborate? Fanatic-Templar - 07/09/2009 06:37:14 AM 1010 Views
You're right about the sword Brian - 07/09/2009 07:20:22 AM 1082 Views
I'd still prefer if it wasn't Brian - 07/09/2009 06:37:19 AM 1100 Views
I'm thinking the sword Corwin - 05/09/2009 07:05:27 AM 1134 Views

I'd bet it's answered in the prologue. *NM* Brian - 05/09/2009 06:28:47 AM 556 Views
I hadn't thought of that WolfBro 87 - 05/09/2009 06:31:42 AM 1099 Views
Re: I hadn't thought of that Mjolner - 08/09/2009 10:59:46 PM 927 Views
My thoughts exactly. The sword is the only part that makes sense as coming from the Prologue. *NM* Artsapat - 06/09/2009 12:09:39 PM 520 Views
Hmmm... not Rhuidean - I'm betting the farm on it being Guaire Amalasan's scabbard DomA - 05/09/2009 08:07:10 AM 1353 Views

Utterly wrong, but i'll throw it in anyway.... Dai Shan of Malkier - 05/09/2009 01:01:14 PM 995 Views
It's in the Prophecy. Hawking's sword Justice. CupofDice - 06/09/2009 12:37:13 AM 1174 Views
I like that. Seriana Sedai - 06/09/2009 04:32:16 AM 1009 Views
I like that a lot. Seems the most likely out of all of these, too. beetnemesis - 06/09/2009 05:24:08 AM 1096 Views
I like it too, and it begs the question... lilltempest - 06/09/2009 07:37:09 AM 1007 Views
I think you might be correct. AliasRY - 06/09/2009 07:45:17 AM 1047 Views

Re: lol Corwin - 07/09/2009 01:14:59 PM 947 Views
I thought the great sword means it is a very long two-handed sword. redhand - 07/09/2009 01:35:32 AM 1182 Views
The scabbard is COMPLETELY wrong NaClH2O - 08/09/2009 01:10:24 AM 1020 Views
