my problem with this Deadsy Send a noteboard - 08/07/2010 04:59:35 AM
The Land of Madmen has never been mentioned in the series, unless it was in tGS and I've forgotten.

The only time it's been mentioned is the BWB. I'm guessing 95% of WoT readers aren't aware of the Land of Madmen.


People complain in books when someone/something suddenly comes along out of nowhere to save the day without any set up. I think it should go the same way with bad guys ruining the day, and Demandred suddenly showing up with a ton of channelers from the Land of Madmen would be the same thing.


That's why, between Land of Madmen and Shara, Shara is much more likely. We've heard about Shara several times. From the Jainfarstrider book early on, to the silk from east of the Waste, to Graendal's pets.

If Demandred isn't Roedran (or controlling Roedran) Deadsy - 07/07/2010 10:08:19 AM 1656 Views

It all began.... DomA - 07/07/2010 11:49:39 AM 758 Views
The idea is... Etzel - 07/07/2010 12:39:19 PM 566 Views
Lol. So Slayer is the easy solution to every single mysterious death in the series? Dull as hell *NM* Lordling - 07/07/2010 12:57:12 PM 218 Views
Well, it's his job after all, thus a logical solution. *NM* Etzel - 07/07/2010 01:18:52 PM 226 Views
No, Etzel... Shannow - 07/07/2010 01:03:20 PM 606 Views
I disagree... Etzel - 07/07/2010 01:18:11 PM 540 Views
And besides... Etzel - 07/07/2010 01:49:04 PM 544 Views
Fain and Slayer RandAllThor - 07/07/2010 08:47:48 PM 514 Views
Fain playing a significant role in the LB would too much allude to LotR, IMO. *NM* Etzel - 07/07/2010 11:28:29 PM 499 Views
As would Moiraine returning. fionwe1987 - 08/07/2010 02:13:25 AM 572 Views
It depends on Fain's role... Etzel - 08/07/2010 08:34:27 AM 431 Views
But what does "wildcard" really mean? RandAllThor - 08/07/2010 03:19:16 PM 443 Views
for a long time i thought shara and their tattooed channeles. nigelgoboom - 09/07/2010 05:24:16 PM 451 Views
I agree. I think this refers to The Great Battle done but the world not yet done with battle RugbyPlayingAshaman - 07/07/2010 04:07:05 PM 465 Views
Fain doesn't make sense from a timing stand point darius_sedai - 07/07/2010 04:46:00 PM 492 Views
Indeed... Etzel - 08/07/2010 08:42:45 AM 457 Views
agreed darius_sedai - 09/07/2010 05:56:23 PM 424 Views
One reason the Murandy-New SL theory makes sense... fionwe1987 - 07/07/2010 07:19:56 PM 450 Views
That's most likely just coincidence. *NM* Etzel - 07/07/2010 11:30:00 PM 214 Views
Riiiight... because WoT is chock full of coincidences. fionwe1987 - 08/07/2010 02:12:47 AM 429 Views
In any case... Etzel - 08/07/2010 08:31:19 AM 478 Views
Re: That's most likely just coincidence. scooter - 08/07/2010 02:13:36 AM 459 Views
They followed Fain all the way to Caemlyn and shot arrows at Rand Deadsy - 08/07/2010 04:21:14 AM 425 Views
Yeah, I agree, Roedran isn't under Fain's control. *NM* Etzel - 08/07/2010 08:38:15 AM 306 Views
Re: It all began.... echooff - 08/07/2010 12:11:02 PM 426 Views
Murandy just doesn't fit Demandred. Also, Sammael could have been wrong. Logain - 07/07/2010 07:57:19 PM 687 Views
Here's another possibility scooter - 08/07/2010 02:21:25 AM 524 Views
Another possibility for Demandred Narg - 08/07/2010 03:20:27 AM 442 Views
Sammael probably refered to the Dragonswron in the south of the Westlands... Etzel - 08/07/2010 08:37:04 AM 398 Views
What if Demandred's base is... entyti - 08/07/2010 04:52:40 AM 471 Views
my problem with this Deadsy - 08/07/2010 04:59:35 AM 459 Views
Well, I tend to agree with you entyti - 09/07/2010 12:27:04 AM 414 Views
I actually think he only made the island to poke fun at Australia *NM* Deadsy - 09/07/2010 05:13:25 AM 226 Views
I doubt that you could that easily control the Madmen. *NM* Etzel - 08/07/2010 08:44:42 AM 192 Views
Unlikely... maybe even impossible Sidious - 08/07/2010 10:14:24 AM 447 Views
Definitely possible. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 08/07/2010 02:06:57 PM 441 Views
Now here's a man with... vision! entyti - 09/07/2010 12:24:13 AM 418 Views
not really darius_sedai - 10/07/2010 12:25:31 PM 425 Views
That's factually incorrect entyti - 12/07/2010 12:41:48 AM 460 Views
yes, factually incorrect by you Sidious - 12/07/2010 08:02:23 AM 480 Views
darius_sedai - 12/07/2010 04:40:45 PM 412 Views
I think Lanfears' estimation is incorrect. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 13/07/2010 04:15:44 PM 451 Views
this is why i keep thinkin shara, with their tattoed pedigrees for channelers. *NM* nigelgoboom - 12/07/2010 02:17:53 AM 190 Views
