Still like it though. Joel Send a noteboard - 07/10/2009 03:55:47 PM
I don't understand why Taim would be a Forsaken and not attend a single Forsaken meeting. The argument that he's a secret even from the Forsaken just doesn't cut it for me, I'm afraid.

We don't know he hasn't, just that we haven't seen him at any. For that matter, we've seen Ishy at meetings where no one else did. ;)
Besides, RJ said that Taim looked older because he'd gone through a tough time in his life. The answer suggests that Taim is Taim. The Black Tower would get too crowded if there was another Forsaken, along with Osan'gar and Moridin.

Um... I think Taim being Be'lal and Moridin being a BT regular are mutually exclusive. Certainly Taim went through a tough time in his life, too, but I'm treating Taims apparent age as irrelevant for precisely the quote you note. It's more a matter that he didn't start channeling yesterday but shows no sign of the Taint.

RJ actually indicated... Etzel - 10/10/2009 10:51:23 AM 628 Views
I don't think he'd have considered it at all without this aspect. Joel - 12/10/2009 12:45:26 AM 639 Views
Nope... Etzel - 07/10/2009 04:09:52 PM 685 Views
Good points, but still not convinced. Joel - 07/10/2009 04:19:42 PM 656 Views
The other Forsaken... Etzel - 07/10/2009 04:31:26 PM 680 Views
Except for mentions of the fellow pretending to be Sammael. Joel - 07/10/2009 04:56:11 PM 918 Views
And why.. Etzel - 07/10/2009 05:25:30 PM 677 Views
Honestly, I do think Graendal was posing as Sammael, but we can't know for sure. Joel - 12/10/2009 12:58:58 AM 773 Views
