she shouldn't have, although I think they should trash the oaths in general LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 07/12/2010 03:29:21 PM
As far as Nynaeve goes, I can understand why they made her take the Oaths, although I don't agree. I agree with Watcher that it was really the test she shouldn't have had to take. Franky, I find it kind of a useless test to begin with.

*shrugs* ... the oaths are lame and so full of holes the only value they bring is darius_sedai - 07/12/2010 03:26:21 PM 896 Views
I wonder what would have happened if she refused and left the tower entirely. LadyLorraine - 07/12/2010 03:30:58 PM 889 Views
I doubt they would have stopped her ... but there was no real reason for her to refuse the darius_sedai - 07/12/2010 03:34:20 PM 855 Views
no there wasn't a real reason for her to refuse. It'd still be interesting if she did *NM* LadyLorraine - 07/12/2010 03:37:45 PM 421 Views
would have made for an interesting spin on the plot darius_sedai - 07/12/2010 05:37:31 PM 867 Views
How is she not a lead? moratcorlm - 07/12/2010 06:25:45 PM 818 Views
She has never really had her own unique plot line darius_sedai - 07/12/2010 06:34:40 PM 803 Views
I'm going to have to disagree with you on that moratcorlm - 07/12/2010 07:46:08 PM 841 Views
Nothing to really argue here except perspective ... to each their own *NM* darius_sedai - 07/12/2010 10:26:04 PM 410 Views
That would have been good - I think she was probably the only woman with such an opportunity Cannoli - 07/12/2010 10:59:50 PM 886 Views
Personally, I think it would have been a brillaint twist if Nyneave didn't become Aes Sedai *NM* Variant - 08/12/2010 12:02:05 AM 453 Views

I think that is true of the testing not the Oaths darius_sedai - 08/12/2010 05:08:22 PM 805 Views
she shouldn't have, although I think they should trash the oaths in general LadyLorraine - 07/12/2010 03:29:21 PM 813 Views
agreed! and I think Nynaeve's testing rather proved that point darius_sedai - 07/12/2010 03:35:38 PM 880 Views
Especially since Egwene herself didn't really think it necessary for herself to take the tests RugbyPlayingAshaman - 07/12/2010 03:43:18 PM 852 Views
well it looks like such a coalition is part of the plan LadyLorraine - 07/12/2010 03:47:03 PM 840 Views
I meant one that would destroy the White Tower RugbyPlayingAshaman - 07/12/2010 03:53:35 PM 914 Views
ahh I see. well maybe they shall LadyLorraine - 07/12/2010 04:00:52 PM 802 Views
I agree with you. Hopefully Post LB there will be a new structure to the AS organization darius_sedai - 07/12/2010 05:34:01 PM 766 Views
She was always going to have to swear the Oaths redqueen - 07/12/2010 04:42:59 PM 830 Views

The only problem with that scenario was that Nynaeve had stuff to do, and could not as Accepted Cannoli - 09/12/2010 01:09:45 AM 912 Views
And what? To miss all the awesomeness she had before/during/after the test? Skeeve the Great - 07/12/2010 06:27:23 PM 788 Views
I agree about the test, kind of. The Oaths was going too far. DomA - 07/12/2010 07:02:43 PM 957 Views

And yet people keep choosing donuts over lettuce *NM* guttering flame - 16/12/2010 10:47:04 AM 436 Views
It's supposed to be a required part of being Aes Sedai. ˥ɐ ʎpu∀ɹ - 08/12/2010 08:52:34 AM 772 Views
Has Egwene swore the Oaths? guttering flame - 08/12/2010 03:11:37 PM 873 Views
Yes - she swore on the Oath Rod in TGS. *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 08/12/2010 03:22:31 PM 462 Views

On the contrary, being Aes Sedai means she had to swear the Oaths. Joel - 14/12/2010 04:53:28 AM 741 Views

They believe Oaths necessary, thus an Aes Sedai refusing sets herself apart from and above the rest. Joel - 16/12/2010 02:26:45 PM 1226 Views
So? Cannoli - 15/12/2010 11:40:32 AM 826 Views
From the standpoint of actually changing Tower rules and traditions I agree with you. Joel - 16/12/2010 02:13:44 PM 1233 Views
