Exactly why does she have to kneel? fionwe1987 Send a noteboard - 24/01/2013 01:31:03 AM
Would she ever kneel to the Dragon Reborn?

What purpose would that have served?
Would she ever kneel to Seanchan Empress?

I should hope not. And if you think Cadsuane will kneel for Tuon, you've got another thing coming. More likely, Cadsuane will kidnap Tuon, and paddle her bottom till she sees sense.
Would she ever kneel to any King or Queen?

You think Cadsuane will? }<img class=' />

The WT authority is near an all time low, and world powers are balancing each other out. In order to keep the WT in check, the patten needed a less ambitious leader.

Ummm... Egwene had exactly the right ambitions. Rather than have the Tower try to dominate all the new channeling organizations that were revealed, she instead curbed the Tower's tendency for control and worked out a deal which treated all these organizations equal. Rather than trying to use Mattin Stephaneos when he was in her power, she let him go free. Rather than kick up a fuss, she accepted Elayne being made supreme commander. Rather than start an open fight about Elayne's plan for the Kin, she let it pass for the Last Battle.

Cadsuane is likely to be a lot less patient about many of these things. Anyone who thinks Cadsuane is less ambitious for the Tower is plain wrong.

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 1365 Views

I disagree about Cadsuane. Her entitlement issues are pretty significant. darius_sedai - 23/01/2013 11:29:04 PM 1322 Views

Age was never a limit to Cadsuane... fionwe1987 - 24/01/2013 01:20:46 AM 1340 Views
Cadsuane was able to adapt in her dealing with the DR Knightscape - 24/01/2013 02:16:31 AM 1288 Views
Huh? fionwe1987 - 24/01/2013 02:23:28 AM 1164 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 1306 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 1542 Views
None of the EF crew did. Mat is even worse about it than Egwene darius_sedai - 25/01/2013 07:12:40 AM 1281 Views

Still, Cadsuane is near 300 years old and unless she drops the oaths she's going to be dead soon darius_sedai - 23/01/2013 11:31:17 PM 1288 Views

The Pattern doesn't pick Amyrlins. fionwe1987 - 23/01/2013 10:29:47 PM 1271 Views

Why does Egwene expect people to kneel and kiss her ring Knightscape - 24/01/2013 02:08:21 AM 1231 Views
She doesn't. She expects people to show respect for the position of Amyrlin darius_sedai - 24/01/2013 02:14:29 AM 1261 Views
She did become Dragon Sworn *NM* Knightscape - 24/01/2013 02:22:02 AM 800 Views
