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 1566 Views

It allowed an idiotic plot twist. - 11/11/2010 12:17:24 PM 1799 Views
Maybe she got cocky after reading the Dark Prophecy. - 11/11/2010 03:32:19 PM 1245 Views
I don't understand protests like this - 11/11/2010 05:33:12 PM 1217 Views
Because we are told that this was her plot, but we are never shown. - 11/11/2010 07:09:48 PM 1338 Views
She knew success was critical yet didn't step in at all? - 11/11/2010 10:40:26 PM 1152 Views
She didn't even send in her channeler. - 12/11/2010 02:35:02 AM 1161 Views
Yeah, but her plan was so lame it kinda ruined her character - 13/11/2010 08:26:34 PM 1140 Views
Why having other Forsaken at all? Slayer and Moridin should've been enough. *NM* - 11/11/2010 11:33:04 PM 657 Views
Exactly. *NM* - 12/11/2010 02:35:34 AM 566 Views
She might be the Tower that crumbles and regrows - 12/11/2010 03:48:13 AM 1165 Views
That pretty much assuredly refers to Moridin. - 12/11/2010 03:55:48 AM 1098 Views
Aren't dreams about the future? Moridin's death and rise have already happened. *NM* - 12/11/2010 04:10:34 AM 614 Views

They are.... - 13/11/2010 02:32:26 PM 1185 Views
No, sorry. - 14/11/2010 12:45:33 AM 1212 Views
The point of Graendal's survival was ... - 13/11/2010 02:30:38 AM 1180 Views
Sadly, I agree with you. - 16/11/2010 06:09:49 AM 1220 Views
