that's retarded, imo LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 09/12/2010 12:21:27 AM
if I saw some woman walking idly toward a burning building with the intent to stop the burning, I'd think she was nuts. Same for any EMT who walked their way over to someone bleeding on the pavement.

If that's what the Aes Sedai are wanting, then no wonder no one likes them! Holding yourself aloofly distant and "elite" over people does very little to endear them to you and won't get you very far in respect if that's all you have going for you.


*Totally Random Thought* How did ELAIDA end up being Morgase's adviser, anyways? Seems like a strange job for a Red.
Still Empress of the Poofy Purple Pillow Pile Palace!!

I think skill with Saidar is easy enough to judge as it's a simple matter to see the skill darius_sedai - 08/12/2010 05:37:27 PM 1368 Views
I think the greens should have been on Nynaeve's side as well LadyLorraine - 08/12/2010 06:18:16 PM 1476 Views
Problem is they are Aes Sedai and thus more likley to be political rather than rational! *NM* darius_sedai - 08/12/2010 08:52:00 PM 981 Views

Strength was "prized" in the AoL ... but lack of strength was not a negative darius_sedai - 12/12/2010 01:41:08 AM 1348 Views

They're not really stupid... DomA - 08/12/2010 01:00:20 AM 1457 Views
Not saying they are. It's just that most AS that we've come across Chas - 08/12/2010 02:20:05 AM 1173 Views
They're constantly outsmarted by a teenage girl that has spent most of her life in a damn farm. Variant - 08/12/2010 10:32:50 AM 1427 Views
yeah because that's so realistic Sidious - 08/12/2010 12:17:29 PM 1356 Views

minor disagreement darius_sedai - 08/12/2010 05:27:51 PM 1455 Views
Yes, but you can be not-panicked and not calm of body LadyLorraine - 08/12/2010 06:38:56 PM 1311 Views
not really the same thing as what the AS are getting at though darius_sedai - 08/12/2010 09:02:05 PM 1928 Views

About Elaida... Zeratul - 09/12/2010 12:29:21 PM 1455 Views
...no wonder the Aes Sedai are floundering LadyLorraine - 09/12/2010 01:43:42 PM 1176 Views
Oh it's totally stupid! darius_sedai - 09/12/2010 04:37:14 PM 1416 Views
No I know why she took the job. I just don't understand why she got it LadyLorraine - 09/12/2010 04:52:34 PM 1350 Views
I think Elaida just smarmed up at the right time, Morgase was very young then darius_sedai - 09/12/2010 05:52:29 PM 1482 Views
hmm. curse smarming, then *NM* LadyLorraine - 09/12/2010 07:47:26 PM 596 Views

Oh. Well, I'm sorry then. Fanatic-Templar - 08/12/2010 06:48:50 PM 1426 Views
I think it has already been established that the purpose of the test is to ensure that Chas - 08/12/2010 09:59:18 PM 1172 Views
Yeah, but how does that work? Fanatic-Templar - 08/12/2010 10:24:35 PM 1317 Views
Somewhere in the sub-conscious they know what they're doing is important to them. Chas - 09/12/2010 12:20:47 AM 1440 Views
Even so, it wouldn't work. Fanatic-Templar - 09/12/2010 03:32:55 AM 1349 Views
I think if this thread has established anything it's that the test is severely flawed. *NM* Chas - 09/12/2010 09:24:48 PM 658 Views
Another headless chicken example. Chas - 09/12/2010 12:30:02 AM 1330 Views
