When and how was Egwene "forced?" beetnemesis Send a noteboard - 16/05/2014 04:09:59 AM

Later on in the series, it's mentioned that Egwene was "forced" in her power- that is, instead of reaching her channeling potential naturally, she was somehow stressed and pushed to reach her potential much quicker than the norm.

My questions is... when did this happen? When it's mentioned, it's very matter-of-fact, but I can't really remember any specific instance of it happening.

I mean, Egwene came to the Tower within a couple months of Elayne. As far as we know, they had the same training. They went off on the same adventures. True, Egwene was captured by the Seancean, but was that long enough to be "forced?"

So, when did this happen?

I amuse myself.

Didn't Siuan say she took some responsibility, though? - 16/05/2014 01:24:35 PM 999 Views

Egwene says Siuan actually apologized for doing it and sounded uncharacteristically sincere - 18/05/2014 10:19:08 PM 1010 Views

It was the Seanchan - 17/05/2014 09:05:29 PM 1140 Views
But that's the one thing of all her trials for which Siuan has no need to apologize - 18/05/2014 10:46:41 PM 950 Views
That doesn't make much sense... - 18/05/2014 11:24:45 PM 959 Views
More strength = less exhaustion. Channelers being tapped out was a problem at TG - 20/05/2014 03:23:19 AM 966 Views

Makes sense, I guess the Siuan connection is just unclear writing *NM* - 19/05/2014 02:20:45 AM 421 Views
