1) She wouldn't ask for help, since she's already gotten burned once by appearing in front of Black Ajah Sisters in a weakened condition. If any of the Sisters recognized it and realized what the necklace was, she would be in a position similar to the one Egwene, Nynaeve and Elayne had her in, and even worse, under subordinates she had punished and subsequently lost the respect of.


But she let Chesmal heal her and only Liandrin (who she expected) tried to betray her. It wouldn't be particularly difficult for her to find a BA Sister to free her. If she could enter TAR she could snag them from their dreams and kill them if they disobeyed her or tried to make her a prisoner. Once she was free she'd likely kill them anyway. We also know Compulsion in TAR is actually stronger than in the waking world, so all she'd need do is set a Compulsion on a Sister and she's free as a bird with no one the wiser.

Because some things are actually stronger in Tel'aran'rhiod than in the waking world. That is why you will be a glossy white mare whenever I bring you here. And it is not only hurts taken here that last into waking. Compulsion is another.

I believe if she could enter TAR she would have been able to escape quite easily.

2) She didn't know the technique needed to remove the collar. Nynaeve and Elayne figured this out through multiple attempts by trial and error. Once they figured out how, they used it to free Egwene. Egwene learned how to remove the collar using the Power afterwards, but it is a very specific set of movements needed to unclasp the collar. Even worse, the collar prevents you from making movements or using the Power in such a way that would destroy or remove it, so she would have found herself, if Skimming to a barely known place, unable to even attempt to save herself. She would then be at the mercy of anyone who found her in this weakened state, which would have been unthinkable for her.


This would take a few minutes of fumbling at most! Any number of characters have figured it out pretty quickly so I don't think it would be too tough for an AS to manage. If she has a woman from the camp handy it wouldn't take much time and no one would even notice. Worse case she has the woman Travel away with her until they can get it off.

I'm inclined to think the a'dam stops Dream Walking - 26/05/2010 09:26:20 PM 820 Views

And it seems the woman wearing the bracelet has strange dreams too - 26/05/2010 10:54:26 PM 931 Views
Re: I'm inclined to think the a'dam stops Dream Walking - 27/05/2010 06:46:42 PM 799 Views
I think it would be the latter - 27/05/2010 07:11:17 PM 922 Views
I have a few mundane my reasons as to why Moghedien probably wouldn't and couldn't do that. - 26/05/2010 11:39:14 PM 903 Views
I disagree - 27/05/2010 03:21:05 PM 872 Views

If she could enter TAR she could drag an AS in with her, compell them and make them take it off - 27/05/2010 07:14:26 PM 925 Views
Re: If she could enter TAR she could drag an AS in with her, compell them and make them take it off - 27/05/2010 09:21:11 PM 1038 Views
I think we are saying pretty much the same thing here - 27/05/2010 09:24:37 PM 883 Views
We are close to the same idea, but different in where we think her ability will stop. - 27/05/2010 09:37:28 PM 855 Views
*nods* *NM* - 27/05/2010 11:29:10 PM 398 Views
But channelling is not a requirement to enter TAR - 27/05/2010 08:31:21 AM 795 Views
The a'dam affects things in Channelers other than the ability itself - 27/05/2010 01:58:34 PM 993 Views
I don't agree. - 27/05/2010 03:02:08 PM 856 Views
you are misreading me I think - 27/05/2010 03:11:50 PM 991 Views

That's the point. - 27/05/2010 06:57:35 PM 880 Views

We may never know! - 27/05/2010 09:21:48 PM 873 Views
I would be very surprised if it came up in the books - 27/05/2010 09:25:29 PM 838 Views
Interesting idea. - 26/05/2010 09:38:04 PM 815 Views
Fascinating Idea #4 on this thread. Thanks, Sid! *NM* - 26/05/2010 10:31:48 PM 401 Views

Doesn't work - 26/05/2010 08:37:40 PM 1058 Views
we've seen this fail - 26/05/2010 08:38:06 PM 804 Views
I don't mean that - 26/05/2010 08:39:32 PM 792 Views
I'd say you either die or just wake up if you tried that - 26/05/2010 08:40:31 PM 806 Views
As far as I know... - 26/05/2010 08:38:36 PM 862 Views
This could work - 26/05/2010 08:43:21 PM 1012 Views
Thanks - 26/05/2010 08:51:17 PM 845 Views
Re: Thanks - 26/05/2010 09:12:10 PM 809 Views
So I think this disproves it - 26/05/2010 08:49:55 PM 1094 Views
Is that really true? - 26/05/2010 08:53:45 PM 871 Views
Sid, I made some edits, but really nothing's certain. Look again, pls. *NM* - 26/05/2010 08:55:30 PM 414 Views
I would generally agree with your edits - 26/05/2010 08:57:32 PM 829 Views
yes and no - 26/05/2010 09:31:53 PM 745 Views
Re: yes and no - 26/05/2010 09:55:46 PM 794 Views
well Moghedien somehow managed to create a whole Body for Birgitte - 26/05/2010 10:36:45 PM 876 Views
Could Rahvin turn Rand into a fishman if he was just there in Spirit? - 26/05/2010 10:19:05 PM 826 Views
And I agree with your response - 26/05/2010 09:49:00 PM 831 Views
You have to enter TAR in the Flesh to leave it in the Flesh. - 26/05/2010 10:06:02 PM 919 Views

The short answer to Birgitte - 27/05/2010 02:37:13 AM 809 Views
I think this is possible. - 26/05/2010 11:28:51 PM 869 Views
Dream gateway! - 27/05/2010 12:05:31 AM 810 Views
I think the problem is that you can only channel Spirit through your T'A'R form - 27/05/2010 03:05:13 PM 770 Views
if you dream yourself into T'A'R then you're just a creation of your own mind - 27/05/2010 12:02:38 AM 750 Views
aren't we all? *NM* - 27/05/2010 12:04:08 AM 366 Views
if that was true you couldn't die in T'A'R - 27/05/2010 12:08:10 AM 778 Views
Why not? - 27/05/2010 03:41:10 PM 941 Views
if it's just a creation of your mind? - 27/05/2010 04:03:29 PM 884 Views
is it possible to Travel in T'A'R when dreaming? - 27/05/2010 12:06:57 AM 805 Views
I don't think anybody has said this before... - 27/05/2010 04:01:28 AM 882 Views
Your real body can only channel Spirit. - 27/05/2010 05:25:08 AM 896 Views
Yes, but you need real One Power to affect the real world. - 27/05/2010 06:46:21 AM 854 Views
The only real situation we have to compare... - 27/05/2010 06:59:51 AM 788 Views
That's a weird situation. - 27/05/2010 07:09:21 AM 839 Views
Well, yes. The Birgitte situation can't be compared directly to Sidious' - 27/05/2010 08:01:38 AM 864 Views

Actually I don't think so.. - 28/05/2010 02:31:27 PM 773 Views
your dream self couldn't exit TAR... - 27/05/2010 06:39:26 AM 850 Views
TAR constructs cannot leave it. - 27/05/2010 04:57:12 PM 1005 Views

shucks everyone already thought of this... *NM* - 27/05/2010 07:08:50 PM 366 Views
problem solved... sort of? - 28/05/2010 02:48:13 AM 929 Views
