Well, unlike everyone else, Fred Gaidin Send a noteboard - 04/11/2009 01:34:57 AM
Alive? Dead? What are your thoughts...

I personally believe that she survived by some weird circumstance. It seems that I had read somewhere that Brandon was supposed to answer the "who killed Asmodean" question in the final three books and seeing as how it was not answered in this one and if Graendal did kill Asmodean, who will reveal it later on. I doubt that she had cohorts in the Asmodean assassination, much less would speak about it in casual conversation with the other Chosen.

Just a couple of thoughts to chew on...


I don't think she has to be dead based on the events which occurred. That being said, she could very well be dead. Of course, I thought there was a way that Min's viewing of Moiraine could come to pass without Moiraine still being alive. Clearly, that isn't the case.

Graendal's fate? - 02/11/2009 04:18:11 AM 1969 Views
Dead. - 02/11/2009 04:22:48 AM 928 Views
Maybe... - 02/11/2009 04:28:16 AM 907 Views
I think it's fair to say at this point that Graendal did not kill Asmodean. - 02/11/2009 04:36:37 AM 947 Views

Why has she been removed from the list of suspects? - 02/11/2009 02:29:41 PM 827 Views
She is dead - 09/11/2009 01:37:03 AM 776 Views
That's pretty terrible logic - 19/11/2009 05:58:57 AM 954 Views
I disagree. - 02/11/2009 10:29:21 PM 789 Views
Agreed. *NM* - 19/11/2009 11:43:45 AM 386 Views
Could it have been Verin who killed Asmodean? - 02/11/2009 05:20:37 AM 1349 Views
She is dead *spoilers* - 02/11/2009 05:44:21 AM 936 Views
Re: She is dead *spoilers* - 03/11/2009 09:01:07 AM 805 Views
Re: She is dead *spoilers* - 09/11/2009 01:38:56 AM 903 Views
I say dead. *NM* - 02/11/2009 06:07:15 AM 428 Views
Dead. - 02/11/2009 06:46:10 AM 784 Views
Dead as Dumbledore. But why does it preclude her from being Asmo's killer? - 02/11/2009 07:04:08 AM 874 Views
Right. That info could easily be revealed through the POV of another. *NM* - 02/11/2009 02:15:31 PM 386 Views
It could but... - 02/11/2009 03:14:23 PM 863 Views
Moridin would most likely know. - 02/11/2009 04:06:04 PM 787 Views
Well.... - 02/11/2009 08:52:52 AM 832 Views
*NM* - 18/11/2009 10:45:52 PM 367 Views
Alive until proven otherwise IMO *spoilers* - 02/11/2009 03:47:51 PM 852 Views
That weave was very complex. - 02/11/2009 10:34:36 PM 771 Views
Actually, the one that Rand had Nynaeve study earlier was more complex. - 04/11/2009 05:11:07 PM 850 Views
But you can't reverse Compulsion by unraveling it, right? - 18/11/2009 10:48:08 PM 801 Views
Almost certainly dead - 02/11/2009 04:48:18 PM 948 Views
Yeah. Compared to, say, Sammael's "death" - 02/11/2009 10:40:01 PM 851 Views
Not even almost. Graendal and Sammael now both go well with eggs. *NM* - 03/11/2009 01:51:15 AM 413 Views
Oh, I agree, but fiction, deus ex machina, etc - 04/11/2009 09:58:42 PM 782 Views
Graendal is dead. the evidence is pretty hard - 03/11/2009 08:00:27 PM 3119 Views
Well, unlike everyone else, - 04/11/2009 01:34:57 AM 779 Views
Alive. It's the simplest answer for me, especially considering that Rand knew she was more cunning - 04/11/2009 05:03:38 PM 970 Views
Re: Balefire. - 04/11/2009 05:30:12 PM 791 Views
Not necessarily. - 04/11/2009 06:08:34 PM 759 Views
The thing is... - 04/11/2009 06:25:43 PM 830 Views
Here's the rub - she had no desire to come into contact with Rand. - 04/11/2009 10:30:05 PM 1025 Views
Hm. Possible. - 04/11/2009 06:42:12 PM 1071 Views
I think it's the most simple possibility. - 04/11/2009 10:39:02 PM 791 Views
Re: I think it's the most simple possibility. - 09/11/2009 01:51:52 AM 728 Views
That's just absurd - 04/11/2009 10:48:30 PM 871 Views
No, I'm making it more simple. - 04/11/2009 11:11:36 PM 807 Views
That thoery doesn't account for the undoing of the Compulsion - 04/11/2009 11:50:06 PM 818 Views
Yes, it does. Distance causes maintained weaves and Links to attenuate. - 05/11/2009 04:22:37 PM 867 Views
Yes, but Compulsion is almost never a maintained weave *NM* - 06/11/2009 07:19:24 PM 434 Views
But the real question in my mind... - 02/12/2009 08:28:31 PM 781 Views
Well - 06/12/2009 08:45:12 PM 1228 Views
Odds are she's dead - 06/12/2009 08:48:19 PM 675 Views
Re: No, I'm making it more simple. - 09/11/2009 01:53:49 AM 792 Views
Amen! Praise the Great Lord of the Dark! **I agree with all points** - 05/11/2009 07:21:52 AM 823 Views
This sounds familiar. - 09/11/2009 06:54:17 AM 734 Views
Yes... - 17/11/2009 12:12:04 PM 732 Views
Yeah, I was shocked initially. - 18/11/2009 10:58:15 PM 807 Views
Proof for reincarnation exists - 26/11/2009 06:38:17 PM 759 Views

But Rand's was spread over a LARGE area *NM* - 27/11/2009 12:17:47 AM 342 Views
He was drawing through the Choedan Kal... *NM* - 27/11/2009 01:09:23 AM 333 Views
