Given that Galad is in his late 20s he's a bit of a late bloomer to have the spark though. Although I don't think he's beyond the range completely.


He most likely is beyond the limit, as he is in his early 30s already (32 approx, a bit older than Nynaeve).

Logain was a late sparker, has been channelling for some years (3?) and is 28.

Narishma is in his early 20s. 23 y.o. IRRC, he's learner and not a sparker, though, so his age would be a bit irrelevant.

I think it's pretty safe to conclude Galad isn't a sparker. He would have been sick and nearly died at some point, I think we'd know about this, and I frankly don't think this would have escaped Elaida's eyes. With his worldview, he would have seen it as his duty to surrender himself to the Red Ajah if he could channel, so he's not hiding it. I don't think a sparker, even in denial like Nynaeve, could live among AS for months either without some incident drawing their attention. The Reds have a very keen eye for the signs.

Is there anyone who *doesn't* think Galad can channel? - 05/06/2010 02:36:20 AM 1720 Views

He cannot. This passage is similar to one in New Spring - 05/06/2010 03:36:19 AM 853 Views
As he has not been tested, we don't know either way *NM* - 05/06/2010 04:37:49 AM 401 Views

They still see channelers as Dark Friends. - 10/06/2010 03:51:44 PM 812 Views
More likely they'd do what the Seanchan would when/if Tuon Channels - 13/06/2010 12:21:12 PM 818 Views
As you pointed out - 13/06/2010 02:08:34 PM 812 Views

Nonesense. The Sul'Dam hadn't started channeling. - 14/06/2010 07:26:12 PM 877 Views

I don't. - 09/06/2010 03:28:30 PM 860 Views
As others said, there is no real reason to believe that. *NM* - 09/06/2010 03:44:00 PM 421 Views
