Re: She has a pretty powerful weapon... Zeratul Send a noteboard - 20/12/2010 11:08:35 AM
In Chapter 3 of ToM was made a clear distinction between the dream Egwene had about the Mesaana, the meaning of which Egwene felt immediately and knew it to be the right one, and the other two, including the one about the crystal sphere and Rand, which she couldn't interpret for the moment.

A bit later when she met Rand and he told her his plan for the seals, she thought about the crystal globe dream. But there's no mention here of Egwene being certain that's what the dream meant. If she was certain, why didn't she tell the Wise One about the dream?

She didn't tell Elayne and Nynaeve either, at least onscreen, even though both were reluctant to agree with her at first when she told him they need to oppose Rand's plan.

Egwene, a poor leader? redhand - 16/12/2010 05:59:15 PM 2052 Views
Egwene isn't supposed to be a leader. She's a dictator and a politician. lilltempest - 16/12/2010 08:21:13 PM 1208 Views

If the Shadow had removed Elaida so Egwene was Amyrlin whilst Rand was still Dark ... ajfurst - 16/12/2010 11:56:08 PM 872 Views
Same thing if Elaida was in charge when meeting w/ Dark Rand. *NM* Lord Haart - 17/12/2010 02:10:20 AM 455 Views

I don't think the case can be made for Rand having it easy A Deathwatch Guard - 17/12/2010 11:04:58 PM 785 Views
I would say that in the grand scheme of things, Rand's had good to balance out the bad. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 20/12/2010 06:27:35 PM 775 Views
