Agreed on the True Power's effect, but if you think about it, the lack of a treaty works out for him Legolas Send a noteboard - 05/11/2009 03:20:49 PM
That Rand normally would have made a treaty, and that this was how it was supposed to be, but the ta'veren effect was corrupted by the True Power's influence on Rand. It's even said that Tuon sees the dark halo around Rand and for this reason decides not to ally with him.

Or at least, it helps Egwene become Amyrlin, and so indirectly helps Rand, though I'm sure he'll pay more of a price in the books to come, unless he can get his treaty after all now that he's less dark (perhaps by being willing to kneel before Tuon?).

I thought he failed because of the ta'veren only working negatively for him for a while. - 31/10/2009 04:55:01 PM 741 Views

You haven't read the book yet? *NM* - 31/10/2009 06:11:41 AM 327 Views
No. I haven't had the time. - 31/10/2009 07:14:08 AM 677 Views
Nah, it's just Sanderson isn't as subtle about the ta'veren. - 31/10/2009 04:56:15 PM 736 Views
It's the first time we've had someone else's PoV when ta'veren was trying to work. *NM* - 31/10/2009 09:39:38 PM 341 Views
Egwene in LoC is a very specific example. - 01/11/2009 05:57:43 PM 762 Views
I really think this was something different - 01/11/2009 04:58:37 PM 637 Views
I highly doubt it was ta'veren effect... It was an effect of the Dark One I say - 01/11/2009 06:16:38 PM 743 Views
