Do you have a source for that? Not because I'm trying to be difficult, I'm just interested to read it.


Again, do you have the source? And how do you forget a weave (if you mean forget in the sense that you can no longer remember something you used to be able to do)? It seems to me to be like riding a bicycle. Once you know how, you don't forget. Of course, what it seems like to me isn't an argument, but at least I can't remember (heh) there being anything about forgetting weaves in the books.



That's not exactly true. Fedwin Morr was certainly completely bonkers, and he didn't turn violent. Poor statistics, I know, but at least they don't turn violent in every single case.



Sure, a few women who could channel could turn battles and so on, but my point is that if they were just a bunch of wilders who happened to run into each other, there wouldn't be very many of them. It takes a while to figure out what you're doing, learn control, maybe find a few others who can do the same thing, and then figure out how to teach someone without the spark, and so on. To me, it seems unlikely that construction of the White Tower, a building meant to house thousands of people, would have begun as early as 98 AB if channeling was invented from scratch after the breaking.



Actually, the Tower was built with the help of the one power, so someone would, quite literally, have known the "Tower forming" weave. Of course, that isn't neccessarily a complex thing to do, and doesn't have anything to do with the rest of this argument.
