It must be... Rand al'Thor Send a noteboard - 07/09/2009 04:37:59 AM
...the link to Arthurian legend is too obvious.

Perhaps something like Aviendha's knife, which 'hides you from evil'... or maybe a more literal parallel in something that protects him from (further) injury in some manner.

At any rate, I think he'll eventually come to regret losing it.
Former wotmaniac Rand al`Thor, 2001-2009. RIP wotmania...

spoilers from first chapter and a question dacole - 05/09/2009 04:55:30 AM 2028 Views
It was probably from his time in Rhuidean in the glass pillars *NM* Brian - 05/09/2009 04:57:58 AM 487 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 414 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 894 Views
...when would he have had a sword while in the glass pillars? beetnemesis - 06/09/2009 05:19:10 AM 838 Views
There were other people around in the past other than Aiel. Brian - 06/09/2009 05:34:26 AM 792 Views
I assumed he remembered it because it was Lews Therin's *NM* Deadsy - 05/09/2009 05:18:39 AM 425 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 433 Views
Was it just the scabbard or a new sword too? *NM* Cannoli - 05/09/2009 05:30:11 AM 426 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 419 Views
It was the sword CupofDice - 06/09/2009 12:21:55 AM 862 Views
So think the scabbard is an angreal/ter'angreal? *NM* Gher - 05/09/2009 06:15:45 AM 410 Views
God I hope not, they are entirely too common. *NM* Brian - 05/09/2009 06:21:28 AM 443 Views
It must be... Rand al'Thor - 07/09/2009 04:37:59 AM 866 Views
Care to elaborate? Fanatic-Templar - 07/09/2009 06:37:14 AM 807 Views
You're right about the sword Brian - 07/09/2009 07:20:22 AM 878 Views
I'd still prefer if it wasn't Brian - 07/09/2009 06:37:19 AM 922 Views
I'm thinking the sword Corwin - 05/09/2009 07:05:27 AM 936 Views
Oops Corwin - 05/09/2009 07:06:39 AM 827 Views

best idea i've read... Deadsy - 05/09/2009 05:27:47 AM 993 Views

that isn't related to my being annoyed by him *NM* Deadsy - 05/09/2009 07:04:14 AM 444 Views
Re: spoilers from first chapter and a question NaClH2O - 05/09/2009 06:27:49 AM 959 Views
I'd bet it's answered in the prologue. *NM* Brian - 05/09/2009 06:28:47 AM 463 Views
I hadn't thought of that WolfBro 87 - 05/09/2009 06:31:42 AM 897 Views
Re: I hadn't thought of that Mjolner - 08/09/2009 10:59:46 PM 741 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 425 Views
Hmmm... not Rhuidean - I'm betting the farm on it being Guaire Amalasan's scabbard DomA - 05/09/2009 08:07:10 AM 1031 Views

Funny thought. Fanatic-Templar - 06/09/2009 10:45:49 PM 835 Views
completly new idea isandorn - 05/09/2009 10:07:07 PM 834 Views
Utterly wrong, but i'll throw it in anyway.... Dai Shan of Malkier - 05/09/2009 01:01:14 PM 785 Views
It's in the Prophecy. Hawking's sword Justice. CupofDice - 06/09/2009 12:37:13 AM 944 Views
I like that. Seriana Sedai - 06/09/2009 04:32:16 AM 802 Views
I like that a lot. Seems the most likely out of all of these, too. beetnemesis - 06/09/2009 05:24:08 AM 881 Views
I like it too, and it begs the question... lilltempest - 06/09/2009 07:37:09 AM 800 Views
I think you might be correct. AliasRY - 06/09/2009 07:45:17 AM 855 Views
They don't know it's a dragon Dai Shan of Malkier - 06/09/2009 10:19:11 AM 904 Views
It doesn't really matter Aginor7 - 07/09/2009 01:09:38 AM 879 Views

Re: lol Corwin - 07/09/2009 01:14:59 PM 777 Views
I thought the great sword means it is a very long two-handed sword. redhand - 07/09/2009 01:35:32 AM 876 Views
The scabbard is COMPLETELY wrong NaClH2O - 08/09/2009 01:10:24 AM 843 Views
