Hear, hear. Cannoli Send a noteboard - 09/11/2010 02:18:49 AM
As soon as an Aes Sedai wanted the throne, the FIRST question any other House should have asked before saying they'd support her is 'If the Amrylin Seat asks you do something that's not in the best interests of Andor will you do it?' No disassembling about negotiations, talking it through etc. etc. If she can't straight out say 'No' they should never have supported her. IMO it's a critical enough one that if she ever takes the oath they should still ask it - then remove her if she won't put Andor before Egwene.


Make that stupid Oath be good for something.

Not if it allows the Seanchan freedom to conquer Randland. I'd rather have Egwene over the slavers. Bookwyrm - 07/11/2010 07:32:20 PM 1045 Views

They're the ones who raised her this way! That's the last thing she needs. Cannoli - 06/11/2010 03:38:17 PM 1067 Views
Um, can we assume her parents raised her that way? chandra - 08/11/2010 04:57:05 AM 906 Views
She's a short, female, youngest child of influential parents. Arrogance would come naturally to her. Cannoli - 09/11/2010 02:08:29 AM 1002 Views

i agree. and this is part of the reason why i don't understand why people have a hard time w/ egwene mazza3 - 05/11/2010 03:56:48 PM 1008 Views
