I generally agree... Etzel Send a noteboard - 11/11/2009 06:11:46 PM
If Graendal died - and IMO there are no convincing reasons to believe otherwise - she wasn't Asmo's killer.

But the simply reason is then, that Graendal certainly won't have another PoV, and it makes not much sense to let another character than the killer reveal who murdered Asmo. Also RJ said in an interview that, if he will reveal it in the books, the killer will probably think about killing Asmo in the own PoV. This simply makes the most sense to create a powerful revelation scene to the most discussed mystery in the whole series. I see no reason why BS should do it in the less probable way. Since Graendal had the chance to reveal it in her last PoV in TGS (and in her several poV before..), but didn't do it, it follows that she most likely wasn't the killer (of course, the Graendaldunnit theory was anyway always very tenuous, if you really look into the mystery of Asmo's death).

Graendal might have sent Slayer, though (she or Lanfear, most likely).

Sanderson eliminates a particular somebody from consideration as Asmodean's killer - 11/11/2009 05:18:48 PM 1950 Views
He didn't say if she did or did not. - 11/11/2009 05:27:34 PM 885 Views
I definately did not see conclusive evidence; in fact... - 11/11/2009 05:32:20 PM 953 Views
Yes, Brandon did. I edited my original message to add in another quote from Brandon...see above *NM* - 11/11/2009 05:33:27 PM 469 Views
That still doesn't say if she did or did not. - 11/11/2009 05:39:12 PM 940 Views
It eliminates for the following - 11/11/2009 05:44:29 PM 939 Views
That's quite a leap of logic... - 11/11/2009 06:31:21 PM 1006 Views

Er? I think you're reading it wrong. - 11/11/2009 06:32:17 PM 829 Views
I can't follow your logic - 11/11/2009 06:33:41 PM 770 Views

I'm sorry but you are terribly wrong. - 11/11/2009 08:34:56 PM 826 Views
That is a fallacious leap of logic. - 11/11/2009 06:50:13 PM 856 Views
Yes, but... - 11/11/2009 07:49:39 PM 829 Views
That is still erroneous. - 11/11/2009 08:10:15 PM 802 Views
your interpretation is wrong - 11/11/2009 05:47:53 PM 835 Views

There's nothing in those quotes that even touches on who killed Asmodean. - 11/11/2009 06:40:31 PM 858 Views
This logic is lacking as well - 11/11/2009 10:17:48 PM 901 Views

But do you agree that Graendal cannot reveal herself if she got balefired? *NM* - 11/11/2009 08:07:53 PM 432 Views
Sure she can reveal herself! Even if she got Balefired! - 11/11/2009 08:52:49 PM 889 Views
this is what happens when you get interrupted in the middle of a post *NM* - 11/11/2009 09:28:01 PM 414 Views
What? Did you double post? - 11/11/2009 09:49:15 PM 766 Views
According to Etzel, this is impossible - 12/11/2009 04:14:47 AM 825 Views
Why is it impossible? You can't have parallel timelines? *NM* - 12/11/2009 11:29:45 AM 416 Views
I don't say it's impossible... - 12/11/2009 03:11:17 PM 844 Views
This was done in the series before... - 12/11/2009 03:40:58 PM 752 Views

Not so suspicious if he's read some fan reactions/theories. - 12/11/2009 11:48:30 AM 797 Views
Which he clearly said he did and LOL'd at. *NM* - 18/11/2009 11:33:58 PM 419 Views
Maybe I missed something. - 12/11/2009 03:02:59 PM 780 Views
Yeah, BS will reveal it either in ToM or AMoL. *NM* - 12/11/2009 03:12:16 PM 377 Views
