That's one I don't get either darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 11/05/2010 10:17:38 PM
Gareth Bryne is one of Egwene's underlings, Gawyn was not. Gareth Bryne disobeyed Egwene's orders, Gawyn was not under Egwene's authority for her to submit orders to him in the first place. Actually, I get that she is displeased with Gawyn for not trusting her, but she didn't make much of an effort to communicate to him or let him understand either, and she was in no position to stop him from doing what he thought was best either. Bryne, on the other hand was in clear violation of his duty to her. It seems to me her reaction to the two should have been inverted.


I understand why she was pissed at Siuan for insubordination, for Gawyn for not trusting her and probably as much for his actions post-rescue (he obviously knew she was Amyrlin in truth by that point!). But Bryne was no better than Siuan in this situation and she pretty much let him off the hook, I guess because she wasn't in direct communication with him so he didn't actually disobey a direct order from her... thin

He's supposed to be in tune with her feelings. She shouldn't have to tell him stuff. *NM* Gher - 12/05/2010 01:40:07 AM 278 Views
How and why? They haven't even seen one another in around a year. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 12/05/2010 03:32:53 AM 255 Views

She didn't tell him. But he did know... fionwe1987 - 12/05/2010 03:54:24 AM 644 Views

haven't considered gawyn, but he or galad could learn. nigelgoboom - 12/05/2010 05:18:26 PM 593 Views
Maybe insanity caused by the taint would explain how stupid Gawyn is. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 13/05/2010 04:04:53 PM 546 Views
He'd be free from being controlled by Egwene! RPA's right - insanity would explain the depth newyorkersedai - 25/05/2010 04:49:06 AM 599 Views
