Still, Cadsuane is near 300 years old and unless she drops the oaths she's going to be dead soon darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 23/01/2013 11:31:17 PM
So the pattern just picked a bully? Please. The purpose of Egwene's death was about sacrifice. We was willing to die to save the friggin pattern which was about to collapse thanks to all the Balefire.


The pattern picked someone who didn't believe in the absolute authority of the white tower, while at the same time strong enough to provide solid leadership after the turmoil of the last battle.

That the pattern was able to sacrifice Egwene for the greater good of the world was just a good bonus.


Killing Egwene was sad to me, and something of a waste. Much like damane remaining enslaved and the BT being without direction/stable leaders


Actually Brandon gave us an "as far as I know" on the Oaths, likely meaning there was nothing specific he remembers in the notes about this.



Odds of her living more than 10-15 years are low under the oaths.

Well since Cadsuane won't abolish the oaths she'll be dead before she can accomplish much darius_sedai - 23/01/2013 10:00:27 PM 1166 Views

I disagree about Cadsuane. Her entitlement issues are pretty significant. darius_sedai - 23/01/2013 11:29:04 PM 1089 Views

Age was never a limit to Cadsuane... fionwe1987 - 24/01/2013 01:20:46 AM 1074 Views
Cadsuane was able to adapt in her dealing with the DR Knightscape - 24/01/2013 02:16:31 AM 1087 Views
Huh? fionwe1987 - 24/01/2013 02:23:28 AM 970 Views
Seriously ... She constantly reminds herself that Rand is NOT the boy she grew up with darius_sedai - 24/01/2013 05:50:45 AM 1080 Views
She seemed to have difficulties with the idea of him in charge, and the idea of him channeling Knightscape - 24/01/2013 04:23:43 PM 1333 Views
None of the EF crew did. Mat is even worse about it than Egwene darius_sedai - 25/01/2013 07:12:40 AM 1066 Views

The Pattern doesn't pick Amyrlins. fionwe1987 - 23/01/2013 10:29:47 PM 1060 Views

Exactly why does she have to kneel? fionwe1987 - 24/01/2013 01:31:03 AM 1169 Views
Why does Egwene expect people to kneel and kiss her ring Knightscape - 24/01/2013 02:08:21 AM 1020 Views
She doesn't. She expects people to show respect for the position of Amyrlin darius_sedai - 24/01/2013 02:14:29 AM 1014 Views
She did become Dragon Sworn *NM* Knightscape - 24/01/2013 02:22:02 AM 663 Views
Where did you get that idea from? darius_sedai - 25/01/2013 07:13:45 AM 988 Views

Cadsuane never swore any oaths to Rand. She agreed to be his advisor nothing more darius_sedai - 27/01/2013 05:35:21 PM 1165 Views
