Answers, short, long and longer. NaClH2O Send a noteboard - 07/09/2009 11:27:53 PM
I also wanted to know what sword Rand has. And how come he recognizes it with his own memories and not LTT's? Or does he recognize it with his third personality's memories and not know it??

The short answer is "we don't know". the long answer is "hopefully we'll find out something in the prologue". The longer answers are:
It probably was discovered while digging the fortifications around the house
It's not clear whether it's just the scabbard or if it's both sword and scabbard. Despite general consensus I think it's both.
Some think it might be Guaire Amalasan's sword/scabbard.
Recogintion: many and varied theories so far (and if not solved in the prologue more to come)
1)recognised from the Heros of the Horn in tGH
2)recognised on his way thru the Rhuidean glass columns in TSR
3)bleed thu from Mat's memories via the 'wash of colors' pattern thingie
4)recognised from the portal stone "flashbacks" in tGH
5)bleed thru from Ishy's memories
6)recognised in a book description or illustration during his reasearch at Tear and elsewhere. (my personal favorite)
7)probably a hundred others I haven't seen yet.

For all of those whining about it not sounding like RJ: Narg - 05/09/2009 05:47:07 PM 1979 Views
Agreed. If anything, it's a tribute to RJ Gher - 05/09/2009 06:17:36 PM 1845 Views

He dislikes Sanderson's prose. Plot content is irrelevant here. *NM* Marshall - 08/09/2009 06:44:42 PM 1065 Views
