Her megalomania was going strong at the end…naming the weave the Flame of Tar Valon. Really? My God, the ego on that woman. Have you seen people claiming that she had more of a bond to the land than Rand? I thought I’d puke reading that. They’re delusional.

Though I’m thrilled that wench is finally dead, the way it went down annoyed me. I found it ridiculous that she got through the entire ordeal without a scratch on her. And Taim, with that sa’angreal should’ve easily slaughtered her. I did find it amusing that her “sacrifice” and decision to die came not because of Gawyn’s death and the broken bond, but because she realized she would be burned out when she released saidar. There was no way she could handle that, and not being the Amyrlin (and no longer being able to boss everyone around), so she drew in more power and died so the AS would talk about how great she was from now on.
