common sense? darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 28/05/2010 12:51:25 PM
But then it becomes really obvious, IMO.

Of course, many people already have problems with the two requirements mentioned in the subject of this post..


that a guy who got shot in the chest in TAR where he goes to kill wolves for fun can appear out of thin air and kill one of the Forsaken?

Almost everything that leads us to think Slayer MAY be lethal enough to kill Asmo happens in WH. Think it through if you take all knowledge we gain in WH out of your theory Slayer would simply be a pretty normal guy who maybe has a Ter'angreal that lets him enter TAR in the flesh. There is never mention of him having other gifts from the DO and no reason to believe he's anything more than an average guy! There is not a single quote from prior to LoC that gives us any indication that Slayer is any more dangerous than a Blade Master level fighter! Hello, Perrin outsmarted him on his own ground in TAR!

I disagree. *NM* - 28/05/2010 12:50:02 PM 1370 Views

Ok, as we said in the other thread, let's RAFO! *NM* - 27/05/2010 05:57:49 PM 1416 Views

Of course you do. Trying to deny it is just silly. Everyone knows your bias. *NM* - 27/05/2010 08:43:18 PM 664 Views
No, seriously, if actually Graendal did it, it's ok to me, too - 27/05/2010 09:08:48 PM 1315 Views

Of course RJ implied that. You should read his quotes about Asmo! *NM* - 28/05/2010 02:52:32 PM 1283 Views

I disagree. It's pretty much black and white that the opportunity/timing is the key factor to - 02/06/2010 02:39:03 PM 1107 Views
