That is not true... fionwe1987 Send a noteboard - 31/01/2011 08:27:33 PM
a) Egwene doesn't have the knowledge necessary to do nasty things like this in TAR, not even snatching people by force into TAR from their dreams.

She knows how to do this.

Or, with a hooking sort of motion, like rolling a fragile bead across a tabletop, she could snatch Nynaeve out, into a dream of her own making, a part of Tel'aran'rhiod itself, where she was in complete control. She was sure that would work. Of course, that was one of the forbidden things, and she did not think Nynaeve would appreciate it.

So show knows how to do it, though she hasn't tried.

b) Moghedien explained to Nynaeve her tricks would work only in TAR. They would not hold in the real world.

It did work with Mesaana though:

"In this place, an a'dam is as meaningless as the weaves it prevents," Egwene said. "It is only a piece of metal. And it only will stop you if you accept that it will." The a'dam unlocked and fell free of her neck...

Neither broke her gaze. Egwene felt something press against her, as it had before. Mesaana's will , demanding her subservience, her supplication. An attempt to use Tel'aran'rhiod to change the very way that Egwene thought...

Neither woman looked away. Egwene began to push back, to demand
that Mesaana bow before her, before the Amyrlin. The air began to feel heavy around them, and when Egwene breathed it in, it seemed thick somehow.


So Egwene could have snapped Elaida's mind in a similar fashion (even more easily than with Mesaana). She wouldn't for moral reasons.

She didn't change Mesaana permanently by imagining her with a destroyed mind or anything of the kind. Mesaana fried up her own mind by trying to hold the reality of the a'dam while Egwene denied its reality.

Not the a'dam. Each tried to bend the other to their will. The weaker will snapped.

Inside Elaida's dreams, Elaida woukd be in control redhand - 30/01/2011 11:05:32 PM 1337 Views
Where have you got the idea Egwene or any Dreamer could do this? *NM* DomA - 30/01/2011 11:14:22 PM 601 Views
Remember Moggy fighting Nynaeve and Birgitte in TaR? newyorkersedai - 30/01/2011 11:30:37 PM 1403 Views
But that's in TAR Zeratul - 30/01/2011 11:42:25 PM 1108 Views
I meant "to locate Elaida *via her dreams* and pull Elaida into TAR" newyorkersedai - 31/01/2011 12:18:13 AM 1204 Views
as to that the WO told her flat out that such things were evil and only done by the Shadow darius_sedai - 31/01/2011 12:53:32 AM 1097 Views

"Need" should not be confused with "want". AshaShan - 31/01/2011 08:30:55 AM 1078 Views
You are confusing being in TAR and finding/entering someone else's dream HyogaRott - 31/01/2011 02:24:56 PM 1208 Views
The place with individual dreams isn't TAR Gher - 31/01/2011 08:49:42 PM 1197 Views
Even then... you've forgotten that.... DomA - 31/01/2011 01:53:07 AM 1228 Views
I read some of that differently. TaR tricks not working in the real world = destroying walls newyorkersedai - 31/01/2011 02:09:31 AM 1224 Views

Thank you very much! I was wondering if I had to do a massive re-read newyorkersedai - 31/01/2011 11:50:13 PM 1051 Views

Well, I wasn't going to suggest that Eggy go full-hardcore and break Elaida's (Lightside) mind. *NM* newyorkersedai - 02/02/2011 11:24:18 PM 511 Views
On another note: I wonder if finding Elaida via her Dreams and then Skimming to her would work. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 03/02/2011 07:27:08 PM 1192 Views
Dream finding doesn't reveal location. We've been told this repeatedly. *NM* fionwe1987 - 03/02/2011 10:20:08 PM 484 Views

Most Aes Sedai ward their dreams. ranagrande - 31/01/2011 01:49:49 AM 1355 Views
