We know for sure that Mat's medallion came from the 'Finns. We also know a few other things:
1) The OP has existed/been used in other ages besides the AOL and 3rd age (portal stones prove this IMO)
2) The Finns collect objects of power and dole them out as they see fit/according to their bargains.
With the above in mind:
-Mat's medallion could easily pre-date the AOL, and I don't even think that's a stretch to say TBH.
-It's far more of a stretch, but not impossible, that Cad's ornaments also pre-date the AOL. Simple example of how would be desperate breaking-era channlers making deals/requests of the Finns for anything to help them.

reversed weaves are only useful when dealing with someone who doesn't know they exist.

Well she did get attacked right off the bat... Pretty indicative that Nyn resist her compulsion

Exactly. which is why she didn't have time to do any "fancy" and time consuming reversing.

Small correction - It has not been established that Alivia is stronger than Cyndane unaided...

Alivia has little experience fighting channellers, unlike Lanfear (most likely)...

Well, he's definitely right he was commenting on one of the specific ter'angreal in her "net".

Cadsuane has two types of weavebreakers...

inconclusive ... the ornament may be the same one she used to disrupt Semirhage

I'm confused...
05/01/2011 06:15:06 PM

Why should Cadsuane's "distance" unraveler not also go cold at nearby channeling?

I'd buy this.
05/01/2011 07:12:50 PM

Except Cyndane had never heard of a ter'angreal that can unravel weaves...

Not necessarily.

I doubt it since LTT claims they created the "first" ones in the AOL

The first paralis nets, not necessarily the first weave breakers.
