Thread makes me giggle. *NM* ViolentKai Send a noteboard - 25/10/2009 07:02:55 PM
Towards the end of the book The Dragon Reborn, Moiraine Aes Sedai is trying to figure out who the living Forsaken are. Here is the passage:

“I... may know who he was.” Egwene paused with an uncertain frown. “At least, I may have a clue. Verin showed me a page from an old book that mentioned Ba’alzamon and Ishamael together. It was almost High Chant and very nearly incomprehensible, but I remember something about ‘a name hidden behind a name.’ Maybe Ba’alzamon was Ishamael.”
“Perhaps,” Moiraine said. “Perhaps it was Ishamael. But if it was, at least nine of the thirteen still live. Lanfear, and Sammael, and Ravhin, and... Paah!"

Who is this Paah? I don't remember hearing him mentioned, but Moiraine Aes Sedai does so here. Is it a nickname used by someone Forsaken, or is it a new, unknown Forsaken that only Moiraine Aes Sedai knows about?

Please no spoilers from later books, if possible.

Thanks. Joel - 12/06/2010 10:14:26 AM 792 Views
Also submitted to QotM - I should have asked BS about Paah at the book signing *NM* Deadsy - 12/06/2010 10:30:23 AM 414 Views
You should've; Paah lives in his house, after all. Joel - 12/06/2010 11:18:23 AM 979 Views
Paah is a small rotund bear who lives in Mr. Sanders(on)s house. Joel - 12/06/2010 10:24:39 AM 1165 Views
Well, it's italicized, so that means he's really scary. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 12/06/2010 03:04:12 PM 393 Views
