Re: I think SH simply didn't care about the CK access key Datakim Send a noteboard - 26/07/2010 12:10:43 PM

However, if Rand uses the TP and is tainted, it also makes sense to remove the Chodean Kal, because without that much potential OP strength it would be even harder for Rand to resist using the TP again and become completely addicted.


One could say that SH was able to predict that touching TP would finish driving Rand totally loony, and leaving CK behind for a madman would be quite destructive. And it nearly was, Rand came very close to using the CK to destroy the pattern which is what the DO wants.

That being said, there are still problems with this. For example, why did SH not just pick up the access key and bring it to Moridin. Presumably Moridin could have used the CK to do what Rand nearly did and destroy the pattern.

Unless maybe there is something unique about Rand that allows him to do things that other channelers cannot and it HAD to be him that would destroy the pattern for some reason.

I don't know if Semirhage was sacrificed or not. Either way the Semirhage quote set up tGS 6 books RabidWombat - 26/07/2010 02:29:59 AM 715 Views

I'd say that there was a pre-meditated plan or backup plan to sacrifice Semirhage Matrimony Cauthon - 26/07/2010 09:02:44 AM 696 Views

Moridin and SH knew that the CK could never defeat the dark one so they were happy to leave it Matrimony Cauthon - 26/07/2010 05:56:56 PM 708 Views

I fail to see the relevance. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 27/07/2010 02:06:27 AM 278 Views
the relevance is that it was impossible without the CK Sidious - 27/07/2010 05:25:45 AM 556 Views

??? The CK in the hands of a madman is exactly what the Dark One needs to destroy the pattern Matrimony Cauthon - 27/07/2010 07:01:13 AM 630 Views
So why not give it to Moridin then? Sidious - 27/07/2010 10:54:47 AM 630 Views
If their plan of taking Rand to Shayol Ghul suceeded then the CK was no longer needed Matrimony Cauthon - 27/07/2010 03:39:58 PM 623 Views
Could be simple. How do you find an object that "lies hidden"? Mik - 27/07/2010 04:17:35 PM 603 Views
It could be, but I would still think they would have noticed the CK sitting next to the male a'dam Matrimony Cauthon - 27/07/2010 04:34:45 PM 595 Views
Not if Moridin sensed it, instead of seeing it. Mik - 27/07/2010 08:12:25 PM 602 Views

That last line had me laughing! (right on the money too, by the way) *NM* Mik - 27/07/2010 02:58:20 PM 258 Views
I don't believe in foreshadowing that you can figure out from the actual plot. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 27/07/2010 08:42:11 PM 604 Views
