Re: Are you blind man? Sidious Send a noteboard - 30/10/2012 09:23:37 AM

Based on your list, Merise would be 25, Melaine 20, Elza 15, Cadsuane 55 and Egwene 60, right?

Can't you see where the math fails? Egwene>Amys+Melaine, but no way is Cadsuane<Merise+Elza.

Cadsuane is closer to Moiraine in strength than Egwene. Moiraine herself in NS says that Cadsuane doesn't stand that high above her, just higher than any other Sister. Egwene was stronger than Moiraine in TSR already. Mathematically it acceptable.

Merise 25
Elza 15
Cadsuane 40
Egwene 60


Is she? It took the others time to reach that point. We have no idea how long Aveindha had been channeling when she made that comment. But there is no such issue with Elza's judgement of Cadsuane's strength.

It's weak to assume that Aviendha is ignorant just so that your theory gains momentum. At least I've incorporated both quotes i.e. Elza and Aviendha.
