Re: Unlikely, and stupid if true DomA Send a noteboard - 27/07/2010 02:19:22 AM

It's much more likely that SH can't interact with ter'angreal due to his limitations.


Except it was Elza who picked up the male a'dam and gave it to Semirhage under SH's orders. SH could just as easily have ordered Elza to pick up the access key and take it to Moridin without touching it himself.

Heck, why did Elza not choose to do this herself? She KNEW what the access key was since she was at the cleansing, and even if she could not use it himself it would have made an incredible bargaining chip for the male forsaken. That might imply that SH wanted the access key left there for some reason and ordered Elza to leave it.


Maybe (that's what I actually think is the most likely) but it's not necessarily right.

SH causes such terror (look at Alviarin) that Elza was very likely on "cruise control", merely obeying orders and questionning nothing. The last thing on her mind would have been "personal initiative". With SH, Alviarin didn't think straight and try to look her best, she lost all her means and grovelled.

Shaidar Haran may not have been in the room with Elza, and Elza strictly obeyed its orders to steal the DB and bring it to him.

Or if SH was with her, he may have had no idea or interest in the statuette beside the DB. He didn't care to ask Elza what it might be, he was there to fetch the object with which Semirhage was to capture Rand and didn't get disctrated by anything else. Not very human of him not to be curious about that object in the warded trunk, but as RJ pointed out, Shai'tan doesn't think like a human being.

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 862 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 877 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 920 Views

I fail to see the relevance. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 27/07/2010 02:06:27 AM 343 Views
the relevance is that it was impossible without the CK Sidious - 27/07/2010 05:25:45 AM 719 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 776 Views
So why not give it to Moridin then? Sidious - 27/07/2010 10:54:47 AM 803 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 786 Views
Could be simple. How do you find an object that "lies hidden"? Mik - 27/07/2010 04:17:35 PM 760 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 747 Views
Not if Moridin sensed it, instead of seeing it. Mik - 27/07/2010 08:12:25 PM 751 Views

That last line had me laughing! (right on the money too, by the way) *NM* Mik - 27/07/2010 02:58:20 PM 341 Views
I don't believe in foreshadowing that you can figure out from the actual plot. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 27/07/2010 08:42:11 PM 755 Views
