He said it won't be 100% flashback like book 10 Rurouni_Kenshin Send a noteboard - 13/07/2010 05:30:18 AM
Such a scene would precisely be a flashback in Rand's plot-/ timeline, especially if we would get the PoV from Graendal just before Rand's balefire hit her palace. It's clear from his answers, that BS won't jump back in Rand's plotline.


That doesn't mean there won't be any. A large portion of the first half of the book could be that way.
When the Wolf King carries the hammer, thus are the final days known. When the fox marries the raven, and the trumpets of battle are blown.

This... Etzel - 12/07/2010 04:54:28 PM 1269 Views
how do you get there from this? darius_sedai - 12/07/2010 05:47:42 PM 1115 Views
Right. There could easily be a scene like this: beetnemesis - 12/07/2010 06:22:45 PM 1048 Views
Because... Etzel - 12/07/2010 10:40:29 PM 1096 Views
You're brilliant, Etzel, but Brandon is NOT robert jordan newyorkersedai - 13/07/2010 01:18:44 AM 1027 Views
He said it won't be 100% flashback like book 10 Rurouni_Kenshin - 13/07/2010 05:30:18 AM 941 Views
But obviously not for the timelines, which are up to date. Etzel - 13/07/2010 08:41:37 AM 1051 Views
the only reason you say this is because you think it makes Slayer darius_sedai - 14/07/2010 02:39:52 AM 1025 Views
Re: the only reason you say this is because you think it makes Slayer dacole - 14/07/2010 04:54:16 AM 991 Views
Graendal is part of several plot lines. Aran'gar at the very least is unseen in TGS, but involved darius_sedai - 14/07/2010 02:40:09 PM 1011 Views
No... Etzel - 14/07/2010 08:10:12 AM 926 Views
so it's not possible for anything that has never been done in the series to happen... ok darius_sedai - 14/07/2010 02:38:08 PM 890 Views
Again, there is no sensible reason for a scene where Graendal is shown again before her death. *NM* Etzel - 14/07/2010 04:47:21 PM 854 Views
sure there is ... to tell us she killed Asmo darius_sedai - 14/07/2010 04:56:09 PM 1054 Views
Again... Etzel - 15/07/2010 08:57:34 AM 816 Views
or it could as easily be a scene from Aran'gar's POV that includes Graendal darius_sedai - 15/07/2010 01:36:21 PM 981 Views
The point is... Etzel - 15/07/2010 01:55:43 PM 927 Views
that is 100% your interpretation darius_sedai - 15/07/2010 02:51:49 PM 966 Views
Noal was involved with Ishy; a connection to Graendal is pure speculation. Etzel - 15/07/2010 03:19:38 PM 873 Views
I'm pointing out that she had more than just Rands plot line darius_sedai - 15/07/2010 03:59:36 PM 880 Views
As far as we know... Etzel - 15/07/2010 04:06:56 PM 932 Views
she also knows what Cyndane and Moghedien are up to and may be involved darius_sedai - 16/07/2010 01:58:36 PM 1089 Views
There is nothing to support your view, that Graendal was directly involved in any other plotlines... Etzel - 16/07/2010 02:31:01 PM 838 Views
She doesn't have to be in order to make an appearance in them darius_sedai - 16/07/2010 03:26:44 PM 957 Views
We will see... *NM* Etzel - 16/07/2010 03:36:21 PM 1152 Views
Indeed Sidious - 13/07/2010 08:49:43 AM 867 Views
The "flashbacks" are obviously related to those characters, which aren't up to date yet... Etzel - 13/07/2010 09:14:04 AM 1061 Views
give up Eztel...they think they know Asmodens killer...we know they are wrong dacole - 13/07/2010 09:45:15 AM 951 Views
I agree regarding Graendal, but have to disagree concerning Lanfear. *NM* Etzel - 13/07/2010 09:51:00 AM 1138 Views
Re: The "flashbacks" are obviously related to those characters, which aren't up to date yet... Sidious - 13/07/2010 10:03:14 AM 990 Views
It's completely unlikely and unnecessary Etzel - 13/07/2010 10:25:36 AM 1060 Views
you keep trotting this point out like it matters darius_sedai - 14/07/2010 09:07:36 PM 947 Views
a very irritating habit indeed!! Sidious - 15/07/2010 05:29:19 AM 1045 Views
There is no indication that Graendal & Aran'gar did anything, except for exchanging infos! Etzel - 15/07/2010 09:01:58 AM 881 Views
where do you get this stuff from? darius_sedai - 15/07/2010 01:41:07 PM 1087 Views
Eh, no Etzel - 15/07/2010 02:08:56 PM 952 Views
I disagree darius_sedai - 15/07/2010 02:56:02 PM 926 Views
Graendal actually tells that she learned interesting things from Aran'gar Etzel - 15/07/2010 03:14:54 PM 1039 Views
pure interpretation darius_sedai - 15/07/2010 04:00:31 PM 953 Views
Well, it fits RJ's theme that the bad guys actually aren't that competent. *NM* Etzel - 15/07/2010 04:12:19 PM 1030 Views
No really since it would make Aran'gar look pretty competent *NM* darius_sedai - 16/07/2010 03:27:40 PM 427 Views
Aran'gar just had the luck that Rand wasn't after her Etzel - 16/07/2010 03:34:53 PM 767 Views
Exchanging info is not doing nothing Sidious - 15/07/2010 06:54:17 PM 901 Views

IMO... Etzel - 16/07/2010 08:46:03 AM 852 Views
And... Etzel - 16/07/2010 11:35:44 AM 972 Views
you continue to ignore that Graendal died about 2 months after she darius_sedai - 16/07/2010 02:06:48 PM 974 Views
Usually the Forsaken meet in neutral TAR... Etzel - 16/07/2010 02:22:34 PM 1029 Views
not really darius_sedai - 16/07/2010 03:58:57 PM 1112 Views
Good, then we agree, if you consider it unlikely as well. *NM* Etzel - 16/07/2010 05:56:50 PM 1091 Views
Trust me, Graendal won't be seen; only her name will be mentioned a few times (as BS said). *NM* Etzel - 15/07/2010 09:03:33 AM 948 Views
You should really just write it for BS since you clearly know exactly what's going to happen darius_sedai - 15/07/2010 02:57:59 PM 957 Views
Ok... Etzel - 15/07/2010 03:17:02 PM 858 Views
When did I say there would be a Graendal POV? darius_sedai - 15/07/2010 04:03:54 PM 932 Views

Yeah, RAFO! I predigt however, that we won't have another Graendal PoV. *NM* Etzel - 16/07/2010 05:59:26 PM 913 Views
Etzel, you're making an assumption that might not be true. Logain - 16/07/2010 05:47:39 PM 1059 Views

Rand used so much baelfire on her that he zapped them all back to the last 3rd Age darius_sedai - 15/07/2010 01:38:48 PM 1047 Views
I wonder if their big role means Rand and Eg will get more chapters than first thought. *NM* RandAllThor - 12/07/2010 05:27:44 PM 970 Views
Yeah, seems so. *NM* Etzel - 13/07/2010 12:19:53 PM 933 Views
