You can't expect BS to give away things with 2 books to go. redhand Send a noteboard - 26/07/2010 01:48:37 AM
What BS said was to make a vague, general statements with loopholes big enough for an elephane. He chose not to answer the question about the permission at all, and only made a statement about what Semirhage thought, which any reader could also make.

Your intepretion is that BS had in mind that Rand can steal TP from Mordin, instead of direct granting from the DO. If he had that in mind, why would he bother to make clarifications? What BS said was, both are possible, and I am not telling the readership which theory is impossible, so argue all you want, and when the next books come out, you will see. Basically a longer version of RAFO.

This provides no evidence in settling on this issue. If you think Rand did it through Mordin, it is fine. But this does not strengthen your case at all.

I don't know if Semirhage was sacrificed or not. Either way the Semirhage quote set up tGS 6 books - 26/07/2010 02:29:59 AM 786 Views

I'd say that there was a pre-meditated plan or backup plan to sacrifice Semirhage - 26/07/2010 09:02:44 AM 799 Views

Moridin and SH knew that the CK could never defeat the dark one so they were happy to leave it - 26/07/2010 05:56:56 PM 823 Views

I fail to see the relevance. *NM* - 27/07/2010 02:06:27 AM 304 Views
the relevance is that it was impossible without the CK - 27/07/2010 05:25:45 AM 638 Views

??? The CK in the hands of a madman is exactly what the Dark One needs to destroy the pattern - 27/07/2010 07:01:13 AM 698 Views
So why not give it to Moridin then? - 27/07/2010 10:54:47 AM 714 Views

I agree with DomA *NM* *NM* - 27/07/2010 03:44:51 AM 311 Views
I don't believe in foreshadowing that you can figure out from the actual plot. - 27/07/2010 08:42:11 PM 673 Views
