excellent observations ... makes me think the real reason it's been so hard for a Monarch darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 20/12/2010 08:42:34 PM
to be AS hasn't been about the people or nobles, but acts like Elayne is about ... the two positions (Queen and AS) have too many conflicting loyalties for any woman to effectively keep everyone happy! As Queen Elayne was smart to make a pact with the Kin, but as an AS she should never have even considered it. If she was not a Queen and discovered that Alliandre or Tenobia had made a pact with a group of Channelers she would have flipped out!

It's not like the Kin weren't getting anything out of the deal, so what's the problem? Macharius - 16/12/2010 04:33:16 PM 917 Views
BTW by "High Queen" I meant that other rulers showed her respect, not that she ruled them. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 16/12/2010 04:42:40 PM 900 Views

The Nobles don't really have any reason to assume the Amyrlin would do that darius_sedai - 20/12/2010 08:50:54 PM 904 Views
