Re: Egwene's surprising decision... randfandom Send a noteboard - 26/09/2009 12:58:51 AM
...perhaps she will step down from the Amyrlin Seat.


Why? She is actually very good at it and is certainly gathering support in the tower.

Perhaps her surprising decision will be to give up on the Oath Rod, once she finds out (from a captured Messana presumably) that it was used for binding criminals in the age of legend. There really is no value in it considering how easy it is to unswear on it, and it is a distinct disadvantage given the vast majority of world channelers do just fine without it.
