If Cyndane had truly won the duel, Alivia would be dead and the Cleansing would have gone down a bit differently.

So yeah, Alivia got a little hurt, but she turned Cyndane back nonetheless. Also, we don't know if Cyndane was injured.

I'm not sure why people need to declare a winner so badly but, ultimately, Alivia won in every way that mattered because Cyndane never got near Rand and Nynaeve. In terms of their actual combat, I think we have to call it a messy draw.

How did Cyndane defeat Alivia? malekithe - 31/12/2010 08:03:39 PM 4038 Views
As RJ said, Cyndane knows a LOT more about the OP darius_sedai - 31/12/2010 08:33:47 PM 1935 Views

Dude, he calls it out specifically. Cyndane beat Alivia because of her skill darius_sedai - 01/01/2011 03:22:48 PM 1516 Views

Try spelling it correctly then moratcorlm - 02/01/2011 01:30:23 AM 1434 Views

Here are few other quotes establishing how little Alivia knows of the OP darius_sedai - 02/01/2011 07:39:36 PM 1472 Views
Damane don't know about reversed weaves Skeeve the Great - 31/12/2010 09:56:51 PM 1578 Views

Not really ... Rand has had LTT knowledge leaking into his head for a long time darius_sedai - 02/01/2011 07:13:41 PM 1366 Views
reversed weaves are only useful when dealing with someone who doesn't know they exist. Onarishma - 03/01/2011 07:51:01 PM 1252 Views
Depends on the circumstances really darius_sedai - 04/01/2011 02:17:29 PM 1377 Views
but why would she have any idea that Nynaeve would be able to resist her. Onarishma - 10/01/2011 07:30:49 PM 1291 Views
Well she did get attacked right off the bat... Pretty indicative that Nyn resist her compulsion darius_sedai - 11/01/2011 12:56:51 AM 1285 Views
Exactly. which is why she didn't have time to do any "fancy" and time consuming reversing. Onarishma - 11/01/2011 03:23:50 PM 1451 Views
that's where she made her mistake darius_sedai - 11/01/2011 04:47:56 PM 1243 Views
It would be these memories, his t'a'veren nature & sheer luck/plot necessity that gave him the edge RugbyPlayingAshaman - 03/01/2011 10:32:43 PM 1346 Views
Well that was always going to happen DrJacJacMcScrumptious - 03/01/2011 11:41:22 PM 1312 Views
Yes. As I said, it would have been a very different series. Thanks for going into detail ! RugbyPlayingAshaman - 04/01/2011 04:47:51 PM 1318 Views

Small correction - It has not been established that Alivia is stronger than Cyndane unaided... Shannow - 02/01/2011 06:02:53 PM 1350 Views
Alivia has little experience fighting channellers, unlike Lanfear (most likely)... DomA - 03/01/2011 12:56:43 AM 1877 Views
I agree with you moratcorlm - 03/01/2011 01:08:35 AM 1384 Views
Demandred wasn't commenting on Cadsuane's paralis net, but on her little bird saidin detector... Shannow - 03/01/2011 07:01:08 AM 1438 Views
Where do you get this idea? *NM* moratcorlm - 03/01/2011 07:19:50 PM 732 Views
Well, he's definitely right he was commenting on one of the specific ter'angreal in her "net". DomA - 03/01/2011 10:51:09 PM 1393 Views
I'm thinking there are 2 items that break webs in different ways darius_sedai - 04/01/2011 07:51:46 PM 1353 Views
Very interesting point. I never noticed that before... Shannow - 05/01/2011 08:02:52 AM 1290 Views
Cadsuane has two types of weavebreakers... fionwe1987 - 05/01/2011 12:51:38 PM 1171 Views
inconclusive ... the ornament may be the same one she used to disrupt Semirhage darius_sedai - 05/01/2011 04:09:39 PM 1255 Views
I'm confused... fionwe1987 - 05/01/2011 06:15:06 PM 1258 Views
Why should Cadsuane's "distance" unraveler not also go cold at nearby channeling? Shannow - 05/01/2011 06:51:49 PM 1259 Views
I'd buy this. Myrdhyn - 05/01/2011 07:12:50 PM 1218 Views
Except Cyndane had never heard of a ter'angreal that can unravel weaves... Shannow - 05/01/2011 07:18:58 PM 1166 Views
Not necessarily. Myrdhyn - 05/01/2011 09:26:49 PM 1289 Views
I doubt it since LTT claims they created the "first" ones in the AOL darius_sedai - 08/01/2011 05:23:53 PM 1200 Views
The first paralis nets, not necessarily the first weave breakers. Myrdhyn - 09/01/2011 09:53:56 PM 1259 Views
Maybe, but that's getting really convoluted darius_sedai - 10/01/2011 03:36:17 AM 1109 Views
Agreed Myrdhyn - 10/01/2011 05:14:45 PM 1207 Views
I don't remember if the AS Symbol was used prior to the AOL ... if so then it's possible *NM* darius_sedai - 10/01/2011 05:55:38 PM 661 Views
It would fit the various scenarios if she had 2 kinds ... darius_sedai - 05/01/2011 03:53:48 PM 1260 Views

Re: Because Demandred said so... moratcorlm - 04/01/2011 08:45:38 AM 1357 Views

Re: If anyone made a mistake, it was Sanderson, not RJ. moratcorlm - 04/01/2011 10:35:45 AM 1417 Views
I don't think Rand is referring to the system as an indivisible whole. Shannow - 04/01/2011 10:45:24 AM 1372 Views
Besides, he knew of the Well from their previous visit to Far Madding... Shannow - 04/01/2011 11:18:39 AM 1335 Views
It's also possible that a Paralis Net is simply a name for any personal system darius_sedai - 04/01/2011 09:23:18 PM 1419 Views
I agree. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 10/01/2011 07:08:19 PM 1270 Views
Re: Demandred wasn't commenting on Cadsuane's paralis net, but on her little bird saidin detector... DomA - 03/01/2011 10:01:00 PM 1349 Views
I cannot remember Semirhage's reference to a paralis net, but if she did do so, it is problematic... Shannow - 04/01/2011 07:31:24 AM 1277 Views
It's a throw-away line moratcorlm - 04/01/2011 08:48:25 AM 1393 Views
