Look... Etzel Send a noteboard - 26/06/2010 11:43:25 AM
The idea was to reach from inside the Pattern a place outside the Pattern. This was done by drilling a hole through that thinness in the Pattern (probably the thinness was already made by the DO), like a Gateway is made by men or TP users. This special "corridor/Gate" was called the Bore. It makes sense that it is a OP weave, if one can sense it.

That Unravelling is possible was unknown in the AoL. Probably the DO also blocked the Bore open once it was created, so one couldn't simply close the Bore.

I think it definitely makes sense that - if the Pattern made the Dragon the strongest and most able channeler on the world - that the OP will also somehow play a part in defeating the DO in the end. But we will see!

How can Rand repair the bore? More importantly, what forms the boundary of the Wheel itself? newyorkersedai - 25/06/2010 01:00:35 AM 1631 Views

The Aiel's insistance is not baseless. They know why they say it is evil. CatherineSedai - 25/06/2010 06:01:08 PM 903 Views
You might be right, but the other idea is far more interesting. *NM* Deadsy - 25/06/2010 10:18:37 PM 426 Views
Slayer seems quite inhuman and he's been in TAR in the flesh a lot Rurouni_Kenshin - 26/06/2010 04:29:24 AM 727 Views
true, but he's also be transformed in some unknown way. Not sure he really counts as human darius_sedai - 26/06/2010 05:46:46 PM 935 Views

No, the Bore was drilled through that specific thinness in the Pattern. Etzel - 26/06/2010 03:54:51 PM 856 Views
Yeah.... DomA - 26/06/2010 04:54:50 PM 860 Views
