Meh. I think Elaida will end up like other women in the series who sucked darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 06/06/2010 10:56:47 PM
Entirely too many times, people have projected their own belief that she will not withstand the a'dam onto BS's "suggestive" smirks and smiles.

Something tells me that Elaida's arrogance may end up being an asset here, at least for some time. Since this is going to be an onscreen RAFO, it seems to me that the Seanchan getting Traveling will depend on Elaida caving (meaning we'll see her being tortured for the info, maybe with Tuon present, or doing the job herself). Which would imply none of the other captives know Traveling (entirely possible).

I think Elaida will end up holding out under the pressure, still believing that she is the Amyrlin and that a rescue might come at any time. This may even be her redemption arc.

As for Demandred, I have a feeling the "little thing from books 4-6" has something to do with him. Wasn't it in book 6 that Demmy sees Elayne in TAR Caemlyn?

That, added with Brandon's association of Demandred with Foresaken around Elayne makes me think he's around Caemlyn.


Colavaere being the obvious non-DF power hungry woman with no "redemption arc". I think RJ always meant for us to have a "FINALLY" moment with Elaida becoming Suffa. Personally I think the next time we see her she'll be a good damane :)

Demandred IMO is Roederan. Cyndane and Moghedien could be anywhere at this point since we haven't seen much of them since WH it's hard to figure out where they might be. I'm itching to know what the deal is with Taim though ... why does he seem to be a reborn FS or at the very least someone who spent a long time under one of the FS?? I'm not as convinced as some that he's actually Moridin, but I do think he's been taught.

While Traveling is certainly a tactical advantage, I think the Seanchan won't be able to use it. DREWRULESWOT! - 06/06/2010 11:15:56 PM 939 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 880 Views
