Remember what Verin said? Don't analyse the DO with human values.. fionwe1987 Send a noteboard - 06/07/2010 10:20:37 AM

I'm sure that Shai'tan cares about winning the Last Battle before any other concern.

He does? How do you know? How do you know that Moridin isn't right, and that the DO is patient, and won't mind losing this time?

If I was him, I'd place competence above dedication. Does he really need to trust Demandred? All he needs to do is aim him and tell him to defeat the Light. If Demandred's only goal is to defeat Rand, then all the better... the Light is effectively decapitated without the key to their success.

But every thing we know about the DO's endgame shows that Rand, a Rand emotionally defeated, but still Rand, is critical to success. The DO (and through him Moridin) have worked to keep Rand alive, and
not because they care for him.
Demandred is just never going to accept that. Should he learn that LTT is critical for the Shadow's success, he's only going to become more jealous, and make it even tougher for the Shadow to succeed. After all, it isn't a simple matter of defeating the Light's armies and killing Rand. That's been established pretty well.

Demandred can't be trusted, but all the Forsaken are hideously immoral beings. However, I'd still use Semirhage for Healing, and Demandred for War.

It isn't Demandred's morality that is an issue. I don't know why you'd bring it up here.

Could Moridin be a false Nae'blis whom the DO wants to replace with Demandred? Sidious - 05/07/2010 05:11:43 PM 1379 Views
Not a chance... DomA - 05/07/2010 06:30:38 PM 1004 Views

Exactly. The Dark One just needs to get free. Then he can break the Pattern at his leisure... Shannow - 06/07/2010 09:48:10 PM 673 Views
Well I agree and disagree Sidious - 06/07/2010 09:55:49 PM 649 Views
Sure. That's for RAND to win. For the Dark One to win, it is as simple as just killing Rand... Shannow - 06/07/2010 09:58:30 PM 593 Views
Says who? Fanatic-Templar - 06/07/2010 10:04:31 PM 675 Views
Because Rand is the only one who can stop him from breaking free. Shannow - 06/07/2010 10:05:52 PM 644 Views
There are many possibilities Sidious - 06/07/2010 10:17:10 PM 681 Views

He had a 100 years in the AoL... fionwe1987 - 07/07/2010 01:01:45 AM 658 Views
Sadly no. But it would have made for a more enthralling physical war... Shannow - 05/07/2010 06:54:11 PM 819 Views
Demandred? Fanatic-Templar - 06/07/2010 12:44:56 AM 697 Views
Moridin is to blame because he is a symbol of RJ's choice to make this a metaphysical war... Shannow - 06/07/2010 12:56:32 PM 716 Views
So... Fanatic-Templar - 06/07/2010 06:43:32 PM 581 Views
Agree with FT... fionwe1987 - 06/07/2010 08:11:10 PM 668 Views
I think metaphysics is more important Sidious - 06/07/2010 09:18:49 PM 728 Views
