BS said Demandred's identity is the greatest secret in the story, and will pay off in the end... Shannow Send a noteboard - 06/06/2010 08:05:51 PM
It is clear that RJ has a 6 book build up leading to Demandred's exposure, and that he has done it in this secretive fashion for a reason.

The obvious answer is that he had to hold Demandred in reserve, because once Demandred is unleashed, his sole mission will be to kill Rand and RJ doesn't want that confrontation to happen until the end.

Moridin IMO will be all Rand's to deal with darius_sedai - 07/06/2010 10:56:28 PM 926 Views
Moridin vs Rand will likely not be an OP fight. Datakim - 07/06/2010 11:06:16 PM 1002 Views
I think it'll be OP v.TP darius_sedai - 07/06/2010 11:59:38 PM 1004 Views

I have this feeling that Elaida is going to surprise us, and Demandred is in Caemlyn... fionwe1987 - 06/06/2010 08:33:16 PM 1214 Views
Meh. I think Elaida will end up like other women in the series who sucked darius_sedai - 06/06/2010 10:56:47 PM 1124 Views

I agree...but Night Walker - 07/06/2010 09:44:54 PM 986 Views
That's just it ... Egwene, Elayne and Rand have already thought of it and considered the uses darius_sedai - 07/06/2010 10:04:50 PM 1071 Views

yes, but the cost may prove too high to allocate so many resources against Traveling darius_sedai - 07/06/2010 09:44:16 PM 953 Views

Forgive me if I don't give that possibility serious consideration. Shannow - 06/06/2010 10:36:20 PM 971 Views
Bc it's clearly way too dissatisfying. And Demmy's certainly too proud to hide as a woman! *NM* newyorkersedai - 07/06/2010 01:01:52 AM 523 Views
