I think Elaida just smarmed up at the right time, Morgase was very young then darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 09/12/2010 05:52:29 PM
She's not exactly the diplomatic advising type, even before she went bonkers. Even if she could demand the post in the WT, I'm surprised that she got it based on the fact she's wholly unqualified, and I'm surprised Morgase accepted her.


and not very secure on her Throne ... I think it's even implied in the books that Elaida may have begun the process with Morgase before she actually attained the Throne.

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 1168 Views
I think the greens should have been on Nynaeve's side as well LadyLorraine - 08/12/2010 06:18:16 PM 1291 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 873 Views

Strength was "prized" in the AoL ... but lack of strength was not a negative darius_sedai - 12/12/2010 01:41:08 AM 1151 Views
The test is stupid and it was about time someone pointed it out Zeratul - 07/12/2010 10:29:38 PM 1186 Views

Status is not an end in itself. *NM* Chas - 07/12/2010 11:52:37 PM 586 Views
They're not really stupid... DomA - 08/12/2010 01:00:20 AM 1283 Views
Not saying they are. It's just that most AS that we've come across Chas - 08/12/2010 02:20:05 AM 980 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 1247 Views
yeah because that's so realistic Sidious - 08/12/2010 12:17:29 PM 1187 Views

minor disagreement darius_sedai - 08/12/2010 05:27:51 PM 1276 Views
Yes, but you can be not-panicked and not calm of body LadyLorraine - 08/12/2010 06:38:56 PM 1101 Views
not really the same thing as what the AS are getting at though darius_sedai - 08/12/2010 09:02:05 PM 1758 Views
that's retarded, imo LadyLorraine - 09/12/2010 12:21:27 AM 1250 Views
About Elaida... Zeratul - 09/12/2010 12:29:21 PM 1268 Views
...no wonder the Aes Sedai are floundering LadyLorraine - 09/12/2010 01:43:42 PM 1012 Views
Oh it's totally stupid! darius_sedai - 09/12/2010 04:37:14 PM 1243 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 1183 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 1286 Views
hmm. curse smarming, then *NM* LadyLorraine - 09/12/2010 07:47:26 PM 515 Views

Oh. Well, I'm sorry then. Fanatic-Templar - 08/12/2010 06:48:50 PM 1241 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 988 Views
Yeah, but how does that work? Fanatic-Templar - 08/12/2010 10:24:35 PM 1123 Views
Somewhere in the sub-conscious they know what they're doing is important to them. Chas - 09/12/2010 12:20:47 AM 1254 Views
Even so, it wouldn't work. Fanatic-Templar - 09/12/2010 03:32:55 AM 1175 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 566 Views
Another headless chicken example. Chas - 09/12/2010 12:30:02 AM 1153 Views
