Re: That's what's scary. In many ways, the Seanchan embody the goals of the Pattern Lo'oris Send a noteboard - 24/01/2011 12:38:38 PM
There's nothing to say that channellers are special to the Pattern

Uh?
They are very powerful, so if the Wheel needs to change the Pattern, it might use some channellers to achieve the desired effect much faster and better than it could have done using simple humans.

Seanchan Takeover of Randland Mordie01 - 22/01/2011 11:25:36 PM 2563 Views
I would be mostly okay with it if they abolished slavery first Deadsy - 23/01/2011 12:19:48 AM 1471 Views
Hopefully the Dragon's Peace (not the one Avi saw the effects of) those concerns. *NM* Japhy - 23/01/2011 03:21:04 AM 713 Views
You mean utter anarchy and a dangerously stratified society? Ghavrel - 23/01/2011 07:24:48 AM 1242 Views
The situation in Seanchan isn't that unique ranagrande - 23/01/2011 07:49:28 AM 1318 Views
Except with continous rebellion. Chas - 23/01/2011 12:13:17 PM 1319 Views
That's to be expected. ranagrande - 23/01/2011 12:56:07 PM 1241 Views
there's tons of problems there, but 20+ leaders/royals killed? Disaster anywhere... *NM* newyorkersedai - 23/01/2011 11:38:57 AM 656 Views
Funny; Caemlyn's succession crises aren't nearly as bad. *NM* Ghavrel - 23/01/2011 11:00:45 PM 647 Views
Rand deserves some credit, he did get involved early and held the Lion Throne for Elayne. *NM* Libby - 24/01/2011 08:47:42 AM 664 Views
The anarchy is what happens in the absence of Seanchan power. Cannoli - 27/01/2011 01:10:56 PM 1362 Views
Yes. That is a flaw of Seanchan governance. Ghavrel - 28/01/2011 01:54:00 AM 1167 Views
It's not the Empire's fault, and that flaw is not being duplicated in the wetlands Cannoli - 28/01/2011 11:24:00 PM 1467 Views

It's like you don't even read anything when you post. My posts, the books themselves... Cannoli - 02/02/2011 06:41:10 PM 1298 Views
They treat channelers like DOGS! so, No. *NM* Evil_Monkey - 23/01/2011 07:56:22 AM 642 Views
I treat my dog better *NM* Voscaia Sedai - 23/01/2011 10:28:08 AM 630 Views
Good point. *NM* Evil_Monkey - 24/01/2011 01:47:29 AM 642 Views
Dogs never broke the world or created Shadowspawn, so they have it coming *NM* Cannoli - 27/01/2011 01:07:32 PM 624 Views
The Pattern certainly has some plan or purpose for the Seanchan. Libby - 23/01/2011 10:59:33 AM 1376 Views
That's what's scary. In many ways, the Seanchan embody the goals of the Pattern Lord Haart - 23/01/2011 11:41:35 PM 1176 Views
If we're going to personify things, we should be personifying the Wheel, not the Pattern. Ghavrel - 24/01/2011 12:13:49 AM 1213 Views
I think it's interesting Libby - 24/01/2011 09:23:40 AM 1250 Views

"We" don't know of the One Power existing, so obviously it disappears. *NM* Deadsy - 26/01/2011 12:14:19 AM 660 Views
Lack of knowledge doesn't mean the One Power vanishes or is destroyed. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 26/01/2011 04:03:22 PM 1152 Views
If OP still existed, you'd still have sparkers even "today". *NM* Myrdhyn - 26/01/2011 06:34:50 PM 631 Views
Not exactly; genetics are more complicated. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 27/01/2011 09:48:48 PM 1302 Views
