I thought they were just a transitional thing guttering flame Send a noteboard - 03/12/2010 07:13:17 AM
This was mentioned in the early books, along with Sniffers and the like. They're signs of the new age coming, they don't belong in the Third Age, nor in the Age of Legends, I think. So yes, the number of new Wolfsiblings wouldn't be too surprising.


Just like the amazing amounts of talents in Channeling that cropped up along the series. Every talent is needed to defeat the DO. But after the Last Battle is through they'll disappear again in favor of technology.

Wasn't dreaming and wolfbrothering the central talent of the age before the age of legend, aka the 1st age?

Egwene and the WIse Ones don't know the most basic thing about Teleranriod guttering flame - 02/12/2010 10:43:16 PM 2205 Views
IIRC Nicola was killed by a Black Ajah Sister and Egwene had tried to save her. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 02/12/2010 10:52:01 PM 1484 Views
Yes, I meant allowing her near the battle in the first place guttering flame - 03/12/2010 06:28:45 AM 995 Views
And who would enforce those rules? j-whitt987 - 03/12/2010 12:42:33 PM 1152 Views
Also, I'm not sure how you could expect the Wise Ones to know that. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 03/12/2010 02:51:43 PM 1003 Views
How do you figure? Fanatic-Templar - 02/12/2010 10:55:15 PM 1206 Views
Re: How do you figure? malekithe - 02/12/2010 11:06:29 PM 1303 Views
may, being the operative word. LadyLorraine - 02/12/2010 11:12:49 PM 1120 Views
except for the part of the soul that stays in the sleeping body, like they've explained many times. *NM* nigelgoboom - 02/12/2010 11:16:43 PM 523 Views
mmm fair point. maybe if you were there "too strongly"? LadyLorraine - 02/12/2010 11:18:50 PM 1132 Views
right. but i dont think 'too strongly' ever means completely. maybe in the flesh or something *NM* nigelgoboom - 03/12/2010 01:24:38 AM 553 Views
This doesn't make a lot of sense guttering flame - 03/12/2010 06:37:02 AM 1059 Views
They also told Perrin that about... j-whitt987 - 03/12/2010 12:55:57 AM 1208 Views
yes, that is another confounding factor LadyLorraine - 03/12/2010 09:14:35 AM 1054 Views

He isn't a wolfbrother Timthetrolloc - 03/12/2010 05:43:06 AM 1179 Views
Maybe he hadn't discovered it yet. Fanatic-Templar - 03/12/2010 06:21:22 AM 1046 Views
He'd be a shadowbrother-brother guttering flame - 03/12/2010 06:51:59 AM 988 Views
You raise an interesting possibility guttering flame - 03/12/2010 06:44:18 AM 1247 Views
Wolfbrothers are going to be part of the next age. Fanatic-Templar - 03/12/2010 07:05:30 AM 989 Views

I doubt it, that Age is ours. Fanatic-Templar - 03/12/2010 09:33:03 PM 974 Views
Uhm, TOTALLY. LadyLorraine - 03/12/2010 10:00:01 PM 958 Views
GASP! *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 04/12/2010 06:59:09 AM 596 Views

If the first age is the Technological / Scientific Age guttering flame - 06/12/2010 06:33:18 AM 1096 Views
I don't see why they would have to be unique themes. LadyLorraine - 06/12/2010 07:04:08 AM 1028 Views
I don't even know why they're supposed to be mutually exclusive. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 06/12/2010 07:37:35 AM 522 Views
Re: I don't see why they would have to be unique themes. guttering flame - 06/12/2010 08:14:15 AM 1013 Views
uhm, duh, stonehedge. LadyLorraine - 04/12/2010 07:11:44 PM 1051 Views
No, because Heroes and Wolves are both different from run of the mill humans LadyLorraine - 03/12/2010 09:19:05 AM 1111 Views
That's far from "the most basic" thing and it is entirely excusable that they do not know it. LadyLorraine - 02/12/2010 11:17:46 PM 1196 Views
Re: That's far from "the most basic" thing and it is entirely excusable that they do not know it. DomA - 03/12/2010 02:42:39 AM 1131 Views
It could be extrapolated from the fact that it's souls that inhabit it guttering flame - 03/12/2010 06:54:40 AM 1046 Views
You're caving to bias from being outside the story with more information than any single character. LadyLorraine - 03/12/2010 09:13:12 AM 1059 Views
Don't forget the Heroes guttering flame - 03/12/2010 09:34:43 AM 930 Views
I think that she meant that comment as more for the "hero" version Apsalar Shadowdancer - 03/12/2010 10:57:38 AM 1014 Views
Maybe this should be a question for Sanderson? guttering flame - 03/12/2010 11:43:54 AM 1038 Views
that's only because you're stubbornly holding to yours, despite everyone indicating its errors *NM* LadyLorraine - 03/12/2010 05:29:15 PM 591 Views
Obviously my tenacity indicates that I have a worthy point guttering flame - 03/12/2010 07:06:18 PM 846 Views
Perrin doesn't count since his information is from Hopper LadyLorraine - 03/12/2010 09:58:01 PM 1052 Views
So it's my evidence against your non-evidence? guttering flame - 04/12/2010 06:05:41 AM 1084 Views
why are you assuming that all souls are the same? LadyLorraine - 04/12/2010 07:18:10 PM 1302 Views
1. You're wrong. 2. Even if you're right, how would they know? beetnemesis - 03/12/2010 05:28:33 AM 1293 Views
Maybe, but I bet they can spell it. Joel - 03/12/2010 05:43:28 AM 1103 Views
Incidentally, wouldn't that mean it is safer to go to Tel'aran'rhiod in the flesh? *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 03/12/2010 09:35:21 PM 506 Views
I'm more inclined to believe that being killed in the flesh in TAR darius_sedai - 04/12/2010 07:35:15 PM 966 Views
Where does that reasoning begin? Fanatic-Templar - 04/12/2010 07:53:42 PM 1549 Views
Perhaps it's more of a matter that the "usual route" may be altered? LadyLorraine - 04/12/2010 10:20:51 PM 927 Views
But human souls don't go to Tel'aran'rhiod, from what we know. Fanatic-Templar - 04/12/2010 11:19:53 PM 949 Views
maybe it does? LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 12:18:05 AM 1272 Views
So do we have any reason to believe this is the case? *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 05/12/2010 02:48:48 AM 497 Views
I don't think so. It's not really something that's discussed LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 03:19:37 AM 821 Views
I'm pondering too darius_sedai - 05/12/2010 03:04:10 PM 1106 Views
Not @ all - if humans regularly go to TAR after they die, we'd have seen it already. Heroes would newyorkersedai - 04/12/2010 01:28:45 AM 1142 Views
that would have been decidedly clever. *NM* LadyLorraine - 04/12/2010 07:18:52 PM 527 Views
