I don't say it's impossible... Etzel Send a noteboard - 12/11/2009 03:11:17 PM
I just say it makes no sense.. ;)
At least in my opinion.

BS obviously means that the other plotlines, which are behind Rand's and Egwene's, will be brought to the same point in ToM, namely Perrin, Mat, Elayne, likely Aviendha, Lan, Loial, Fain, etc.

However, Graendal was tied to Rand's plotline, which isn't behind in the timeline, but was pretty much concluded in TGS for now. As far as we know, Graendal has no relevance in the plotlines of the others, because she had to concentrate on Rand to fulfill Moridin's orders (Graendal even says in TGS that she doesn't care about the other two ta'veren). Since ToM will - according to BS - anyway be a less focused book than TGS (probably because there are more plotlines), it makes no sense for BS to confuse the readers even more about the timeline by giving a likely redundant PoV from Graendal before her death (and AFAIK, something like this was never done in the series). As BS indicated, other characters will just mention Graendal in ToM.

Sanderson eliminates a particular somebody from consideration as Asmodean's killer - 11/11/2009 05:18:48 PM 1948 Views
He didn't say if she did or did not. - 11/11/2009 05:27:34 PM 883 Views
I definately did not see conclusive evidence; in fact... - 11/11/2009 05:32:20 PM 951 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 938 Views
It eliminates for the following - 11/11/2009 05:44:29 PM 936 Views
That's quite a leap of logic... - 11/11/2009 06:31:21 PM 1003 Views

You make a faulty assumption - 11/11/2009 08:06:52 PM 914 Views
NO! - 11/11/2009 09:07:39 PM 819 Views
Why? - 11/11/2009 06:32:10 PM 799 Views
Re: Why? - 11/11/2009 07:48:14 PM 832 Views
Logical? - 11/11/2009 09:16:18 PM 830 Views
Er? I think you're reading it wrong. - 11/11/2009 06:32:17 PM 827 Views
I can't follow your logic - 11/11/2009 06:33:41 PM 767 Views
Re: I can't follow your logic - 11/11/2009 07:47:27 PM 861 Views
I'm sorry but you are terribly wrong. - 11/11/2009 08:34:56 PM 824 Views
That is a fallacious leap of logic. - 11/11/2009 06:50:13 PM 854 Views
Yes, but... - 11/11/2009 07:49:39 PM 827 Views
That is still erroneous. - 11/11/2009 08:10:15 PM 799 Views
your interpretation is wrong - 11/11/2009 05:47:53 PM 833 Views
Re: your interpretation is wrong - 11/11/2009 07:51:01 PM 840 Views
I repeat, your interpretation is wrong. - 11/11/2009 08:15:43 PM 862 Views
I generally agree... - 11/11/2009 06:11:46 PM 919 Views
Re: I generally agree... - 11/11/2009 08:01:31 PM 892 Views
I'm not a writer... - 11/11/2009 08:48:25 PM 853 Views
Agree - 18/11/2009 11:22:09 PM 790 Views
There's nothing in those quotes that even touches on who killed Asmodean. - 11/11/2009 06:40:31 PM 856 Views
This logic is lacking as well - 11/11/2009 10:17:48 PM 899 Views

But do you agree that Graendal cannot reveal herself if she got balefired? *NM* - 11/11/2009 08:07:53 PM 431 Views
Sure she can reveal herself! Even if she got Balefired! - 11/11/2009 08:52:49 PM 885 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 764 Views
According to Etzel, this is impossible - 12/11/2009 04:14:47 AM 823 Views
Why is it impossible? You can't have parallel timelines? *NM* - 12/11/2009 11:29:45 AM 414 Views
I don't say it's impossible... - 12/11/2009 03:11:17 PM 842 Views
This was done in the series before... - 12/11/2009 03:40:58 PM 750 Views
I meant... - 12/11/2009 04:02:33 PM 831 Views

that proved nothing. *NM* - 11/11/2009 10:46:15 PM 389 Views
Rather pointless, really. *NM* - 12/11/2009 01:08:14 AM 350 Views
Uh, I read the exact opposite - 12/11/2009 04:13:45 AM 813 Views

there was a bit more before it - 12/11/2009 05:03:20 AM 752 Views
Not so suspicious if he's read some fan reactions/theories. - 12/11/2009 11:48:30 AM 794 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 778 Views
Yeah, BS will reveal it either in ToM or AMoL. *NM* - 12/11/2009 03:12:16 PM 377 Views
