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 562 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 473 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 1010 Views
...when would he have had a sword while in the glass pillars? beetnemesis - 06/09/2009 05:19:10 AM 951 Views
There were other people around in the past other than Aiel. Brian - 06/09/2009 05:34:26 AM 919 Views
I assumed he remembered it because it was Lews Therin's *NM* Deadsy - 05/09/2009 05:18:39 AM 488 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 491 Views
Was it just the scabbard or a new sword too? *NM* Cannoli - 05/09/2009 05:30:11 AM 480 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 483 Views
It was the sword CupofDice - 06/09/2009 12:21:55 AM 1007 Views
So think the scabbard is an angreal/ter'angreal? *NM* Gher - 05/09/2009 06:15:45 AM 471 Views
God I hope not, they are entirely too common. *NM* Brian - 05/09/2009 06:21:28 AM 505 Views
It must be... Rand al'Thor - 07/09/2009 04:37:59 AM 989 Views
Care to elaborate? Fanatic-Templar - 07/09/2009 06:37:14 AM 946 Views
You're right about the sword Brian - 07/09/2009 07:20:22 AM 1001 Views
I'd still prefer if it wasn't Brian - 07/09/2009 06:37:19 AM 1037 Views
I'm thinking the sword Corwin - 05/09/2009 07:05:27 AM 1056 Views

I'd bet it's answered in the prologue. *NM* Brian - 05/09/2009 06:28:47 AM 515 Views
I hadn't thought of that WolfBro 87 - 05/09/2009 06:31:42 AM 1031 Views
Re: I hadn't thought of that Mjolner - 08/09/2009 10:59:46 PM 853 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 479 Views
Hmmm... not Rhuidean - I'm betting the farm on it being Guaire Amalasan's scabbard DomA - 05/09/2009 08:07:10 AM 1220 Views

Utterly wrong, but i'll throw it in anyway.... Dai Shan of Malkier - 05/09/2009 01:01:14 PM 920 Views
It's in the Prophecy. Hawking's sword Justice. CupofDice - 06/09/2009 12:37:13 AM 1091 Views
I like that. Seriana Sedai - 06/09/2009 04:32:16 AM 938 Views
I like that a lot. Seems the most likely out of all of these, too. beetnemesis - 06/09/2009 05:24:08 AM 1013 Views
I like it too, and it begs the question... lilltempest - 06/09/2009 07:37:09 AM 936 Views
I think you might be correct. AliasRY - 06/09/2009 07:45:17 AM 980 Views

I thought the great sword means it is a very long two-handed sword. redhand - 07/09/2009 01:35:32 AM 1058 Views
The scabbard is COMPLETELY wrong NaClH2O - 08/09/2009 01:10:24 AM 949 Views
