Foretellings have to be about the future, and theoretically so are Min's Viewings (despite Min getting a Viewing of Lan's childhood in The Eye of the World, but let's ignore that) but I don't know that dreams need to be about the future.

Anyway, this one can't be. For one thing, the dream starts off with the thirteen towers - and there were not thirteen Forsaken living at the time of the dream. Those towers crumbling can't be visions of the future, they're the past deaths of the Forsaken. And Moridin's is no different.

For another, Graendal doesn't get to tower over the other Forsaken after her defeat. To the contrary, she gets greatly lowered status.

Well there's a whole 'nother book left she could manage that in.

However the observation that there were 13 Towers in the beginning proves your case I think.
When the Wolf King carries the hammer, thus are the final days known. When the fox marries the raven, and the trumpets of battle are blown.

I don't know if that would make it better or worse. - 11/11/2010 09:09:06 AM 1107 Views

It allowed an idiotic plot twist. - 11/11/2010 12:17:24 PM 1236 Views
I don't understand protests like this - 11/11/2010 05:33:12 PM 800 Views
Because we are told that this was her plot, but we are never shown. - 11/11/2010 07:09:48 PM 886 Views
She knew success was critical yet didn't step in at all? - 11/11/2010 10:40:26 PM 762 Views
She didn't even send in her channeler. - 12/11/2010 02:35:02 AM 727 Views
Yeah, but her plan was so lame it kinda ruined her character - 13/11/2010 08:26:34 PM 689 Views
Why having other Forsaken at all? Slayer and Moridin should've been enough. *NM* - 11/11/2010 11:33:04 PM 421 Views
Exactly. *NM* - 12/11/2010 02:35:34 AM 341 Views
She might be the Tower that crumbles and regrows - 12/11/2010 03:48:13 AM 713 Views
That pretty much assuredly refers to Moridin. - 12/11/2010 03:55:48 AM 690 Views
Aren't dreams about the future? Moridin's death and rise have already happened. *NM* - 12/11/2010 04:10:34 AM 365 Views

They are.... - 13/11/2010 02:32:26 PM 739 Views
No, sorry. - 14/11/2010 12:45:33 AM 778 Views
The point of Graendal's survival was ... - 13/11/2010 02:30:38 AM 748 Views
Sadly, I agree with you. - 16/11/2010 06:09:49 AM 793 Views
