Graendal could fight Lanfear and win Sidious Send a noteboard - 13/09/2009 06:01:57 PM
Of course the answer is no. There is a huge gap in power between them. Graendal would never confront lanfear face to face. But sammael and even rahvin would. Clearly there is a bigger margin between the top 6 than suggested in this post.


There is no huge gap between them - there are two defined levels. We have no idea how large this gap is, but it is almost certainly not large, because Graendal is close to maximum strength from her own account.

I don't know how you can say that Graendal would never fight Lanfear. Rahvin clearly thought that she was on the verge of attacking Lanfear in FoH, and he prepared to Travel. She also attacked Cyndane later in the series. Graendal has also said that she should kill Sammael, but decides against it because she's not holding saidar. We heard several instances where the six have threatened to kill one another - Ishamael remains almost the only exception, and may be a true level higher than the others.

Graendal can and will fight Rand - I'm quite sure of it. Semirhage was not against it, and I think Graendal is similar.

Fact is, the bwb is untrustworthy Shannow - 13/09/2009 05:54:28 PM 1004 Views
We must either use all the quotes from the BWB or none of them Sidious - 13/09/2009 06:07:46 PM 1040 Views

It all depends on how you define "powerful" Lanfear - 14/09/2009 02:30:31 AM 1061 Views
I agree 101%. *NM* Yvves - 14/09/2009 03:49:51 AM 528 Views
I think power is much more than raw strength Sidious - 14/09/2009 05:00:10 AM 967 Views
I agree for the most part, but disagree on one thing. Lanfear - 14/09/2009 07:52:10 PM 1133 Views

Excellent point *NM* Shannow - 13/09/2009 10:35:08 PM 541 Views

But Graendal confronted her... twice! *NM* fionwe1987 - 13/09/2009 07:48:29 PM 457 Views
Apparently only the third time counts *NM* Sidious - 13/09/2009 08:00:37 PM 502 Views
But the third time's supposed to be lucky. So that won't count either. *NM* fionwe1987 - 13/09/2009 11:26:18 PM 520 Views

I only disagree on one point, I think they are all rather equal in potential, incl. Ishamael RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/09/2009 04:28:12 PM 989 Views
