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 1326 Views
how do you get there from this? darius_sedai - 12/07/2010 05:47:42 PM 1170 Views
Right. There could easily be a scene like this: beetnemesis - 12/07/2010 06:22:45 PM 1103 Views
Because... Etzel - 12/07/2010 10:40:29 PM 1149 Views
You're brilliant, Etzel, but Brandon is NOT robert jordan newyorkersedai - 13/07/2010 01:18:44 AM 1083 Views
He said it won't be 100% flashback like book 10 Rurouni_Kenshin - 13/07/2010 05:30:18 AM 1002 Views
But obviously not for the timelines, which are up to date. Etzel - 13/07/2010 08:41:37 AM 1102 Views
the only reason you say this is because you think it makes Slayer darius_sedai - 14/07/2010 02:39:52 AM 1073 Views
Re: the only reason you say this is because you think it makes Slayer dacole - 14/07/2010 04:54:16 AM 1047 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 1077 Views
No... Etzel - 14/07/2010 08:10:12 AM 986 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 944 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 912 Views
sure there is ... to tell us she killed Asmo darius_sedai - 14/07/2010 04:56:09 PM 1117 Views
Again... Etzel - 15/07/2010 08:57:34 AM 871 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 1027 Views
The point is... Etzel - 15/07/2010 01:55:43 PM 981 Views
that is 100% your interpretation darius_sedai - 15/07/2010 02:51:49 PM 1029 Views
Noal was involved with Ishy; a connection to Graendal is pure speculation. Etzel - 15/07/2010 03:19:38 PM 943 Views
I'm pointing out that she had more than just Rands plot line darius_sedai - 15/07/2010 03:59:36 PM 939 Views
As far as we know... Etzel - 15/07/2010 04:06:56 PM 1021 Views
she also knows what Cyndane and Moghedien are up to and may be involved darius_sedai - 16/07/2010 01:58:36 PM 1148 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 894 Views
She doesn't have to be in order to make an appearance in them darius_sedai - 16/07/2010 03:26:44 PM 1005 Views
We will see... *NM* Etzel - 16/07/2010 03:36:21 PM 1208 Views
Indeed Sidious - 13/07/2010 08:49:43 AM 918 Views
The "flashbacks" are obviously related to those characters, which aren't up to date yet... Etzel - 13/07/2010 09:14:04 AM 1119 Views
give up Eztel...they think they know Asmodens killer...we know they are wrong dacole - 13/07/2010 09:45:15 AM 1005 Views
I agree regarding Graendal, but have to disagree concerning Lanfear. *NM* Etzel - 13/07/2010 09:51:00 AM 1198 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 1051 Views
It's completely unlikely and unnecessary Etzel - 13/07/2010 10:25:36 AM 1118 Views
you keep trotting this point out like it matters darius_sedai - 14/07/2010 09:07:36 PM 997 Views
a very irritating habit indeed!! Sidious - 15/07/2010 05:29:19 AM 1104 Views
There is no indication that Graendal & Aran'gar did anything, except for exchanging infos! Etzel - 15/07/2010 09:01:58 AM 939 Views
where do you get this stuff from? darius_sedai - 15/07/2010 01:41:07 PM 1136 Views
Eh, no Etzel - 15/07/2010 02:08:56 PM 1013 Views
I disagree darius_sedai - 15/07/2010 02:56:02 PM 992 Views
Graendal actually tells that she learned interesting things from Aran'gar Etzel - 15/07/2010 03:14:54 PM 1098 Views
pure interpretation darius_sedai - 15/07/2010 04:00:31 PM 999 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 1084 Views
No really since it would make Aran'gar look pretty competent *NM* darius_sedai - 16/07/2010 03:27:40 PM 451 Views
Aran'gar just had the luck that Rand wasn't after her Etzel - 16/07/2010 03:34:53 PM 827 Views
Exchanging info is not doing nothing Sidious - 15/07/2010 06:54:17 PM 957 Views

IMO... Etzel - 16/07/2010 08:46:03 AM 910 Views
And... Etzel - 16/07/2010 11:35:44 AM 1021 Views
you continue to ignore that Graendal died about 2 months after she darius_sedai - 16/07/2010 02:06:48 PM 1026 Views
Usually the Forsaken meet in neutral TAR... Etzel - 16/07/2010 02:22:34 PM 1080 Views
not really darius_sedai - 16/07/2010 03:58:57 PM 1162 Views
Good, then we agree, if you consider it unlikely as well. *NM* Etzel - 16/07/2010 05:56:50 PM 1150 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 993 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 1029 Views
Ok... Etzel - 15/07/2010 03:17:02 PM 908 Views
When did I say there would be a Graendal POV? darius_sedai - 15/07/2010 04:03:54 PM 981 Views

Yeah, RAFO! I predigt however, that we won't have another Graendal PoV. *NM* Etzel - 16/07/2010 05:59:26 PM 965 Views
Etzel, you're making an assumption that might not be true. Logain - 16/07/2010 05:47:39 PM 1114 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 1103 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 1023 Views
Yeah, seems so. *NM* Etzel - 13/07/2010 12:19:53 PM 984 Views
