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? beetnemesis - 16/05/2014 01:24:35 PM 670 Views
Not exactly... fionwe1987 - 16/05/2014 02:48:00 PM 692 Views
Egwene says Siuan actually apologized for doing it and sounded uncharacteristically sincere Cannoli - 18/05/2014 10:19:08 PM 653 Views
Can't be... fionwe1987 - 18/05/2014 11:05:59 PM 674 Views
I agree on the evidence. My only point is that Siuan's apology makes no sense. Cannoli - 20/05/2014 03:10:20 AM 678 Views

It was the Seanchan DomA - 17/05/2014 09:05:29 PM 748 Views
But that's the one thing of all her trials for which Siuan has no need to apologize Cannoli - 18/05/2014 10:46:41 PM 597 Views
That doesn't make much sense... fionwe1987 - 18/05/2014 11:24:45 PM 615 Views
More strength = less exhaustion. Channelers being tapped out was a problem at TG Cannoli - 20/05/2014 03:23:19 AM 619 Views
Those weren't Novices though... fionwe1987 - 20/05/2014 03:56:13 AM 626 Views

Makes sense, I guess the Siuan connection is just unclear writing *NM* beetnemesis - 19/05/2014 02:20:45 AM 273 Views
Perhaps character bias Terez - 19/05/2014 03:38:49 AM 633 Views
