Re: Agreed - it also has the worst line in the whole book scooter Send a noteboard - 20/11/2010 11:13:54 PM
"The source fled her in a moment, for she was no longer authorized to hold it"

For a start, authorised is spelt with an s, and for a second, this is one of the more blatant twenty first centuryisms in the book.


Just to explain, it's actually spelled with a 'z' in the States. Like the words color, gray and judgment...we spell things oddly sometimes. But I completely agree the expression is way too modern for the series.

The important thing is it is T'A'R. Her victory was not implausible at all. Cannoli - 22/11/2010 02:11:08 PM 971 Views

Yup. It might not have been the best climax, but it was definitely plausible. Lord Haart - 26/11/2010 08:27:00 AM 742 Views

That. Is. Not. An. Accomplishment. Your perverse twisting of details for her sake is totally absurd. Cannoli - 02/12/2010 08:54:12 PM 848 Views

Well, technically, that quote doesn't deny Mesaanas stature. Joel - 20/11/2010 12:57:31 PM 934 Views

The Amyrlin Seat is a modern twist on the Hall of Servants, but I don't think you can say darius_sedai - 04/12/2010 01:47:03 PM 983 Views

It doesn't really matter if it is erroneous, so long as she believes it is true. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 21/11/2010 04:17:35 AM 635 Views
Mesaana might have spent too much time reading the Tower's press releases. Cannoli - 22/11/2010 02:00:50 PM 909 Views
