actually, we don't know how it is done and I like my theory just fine, thank you LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 05/12/2010 05:48:19 PM
What's happened is that Rand has found out how to manipulate the real world as other do in T'A'R. Notice how he's easily able to create apples when there's only one old guy around who will not believe this is possible, but in Arad Doman he can't just make food "appear" - he needs to find a way which is plausible to people because he can't directly contradict so many perspectives.

Rand's power works just like in T'A'R. This seems to be no big surprise to me, since the D.O. appears to work in exactly the same way. The Bubbles of Evil are remarkably similar to people's nightmares in T'A'R.


In any case, our two ideas aren't mutually exclusive. Yours does make sense, but his final placement on which "side" he's on was integral to the nature of what is occurring. If he'd remained in limbo, he wouldn't be able to do these things. If he'd joined the DO, there'd just be tons of bubbles of evil. While the Apple Event might have been conscious, there's a lot of "good events" suddenly occurring in places where Rand is not and is unlikely to be presently thinking. In general, the weather and landscape is 'perking up" so to speak.

If you didn't get Rand's transformation, you're not the intended audience... Lord Haart - 04/12/2010 06:58:20 AM 1390 Views

Yeah, while you're busy not believing that, you should believe in things like the One Power too. Lord Haart - 04/12/2010 10:28:46 AM 1166 Views

You've completely missed the point darius_sedai - 04/12/2010 02:03:06 PM 1143 Views
You've completely missed the point! malekithe - 05/12/2010 08:54:47 AM 1058 Views

You're right, why would love ever be the Base of Goodness??? LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 08:59:27 AM 1119 Views
You're proving my point actually malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:33:23 AM 1045 Views
? at what point was this series not supposed to be stereotypical? LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 09:36:06 AM 1147 Views
Well... malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:42:04 AM 1288 Views

channeling isn't far from stereotypical LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 10:10:20 AM 1299 Views
So why do you keep reading? malekithe - 05/12/2010 10:17:49 AM 1305 Views

Again, why are you on this board or even reading this series? Ashaman_Luc - 04/12/2010 02:30:22 PM 1251 Views
Uh excuse me. malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:05:27 AM 1163 Views
since you are so very unhappy, I fail to see why you continue to read the books LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 09:09:36 AM 966 Views
Don't twist things to suit yourself malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:38:42 AM 1061 Views
I would be unhappy with that ending because the Creator has never worked directly. LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 09:44:17 AM 1161 Views
I'd say there's been some unusualness. malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:52:22 AM 1071 Views
If Rand was one of the supporting heroes, maybe. But he's the "messiah" character LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 10:15:42 AM 1025 Views
Actually, it's got zilch to do with "good" or "evil". Lord Haart - 05/12/2010 01:37:49 PM 1216 Views

We haven't had a Rand POV, so I don't think you can say for certain that it's random. Lord Haart - 06/12/2010 03:16:43 AM 1173 Views
I don't think I can either. I'm not trying to say it's certain. LadyLorraine - 06/12/2010 06:17:04 AM 1072 Views
