Re: So... Knightscape Send a noteboard - 13/11/2009 10:07:15 PM

As balefire is the only way to be sure a foresaken is killed, using it wasn't an atrocity, it was a necessity.

Then he should have just balefired her. Balefiring the other thousand or so people was needless.


...and how was he suppose to just balefire her?
Did you bother to read the chapter. You know the one were it mentions that she is smarter than Rand.

Anyone who is not as intelligent as their enemy can cause huge damage to the Pattern? See my reply above on alternate ways Rand could have just balefired her.


Rand is ta'veren. He is tightly connected to the wheel. The wheel controls the actions of ta'veren. Rand's actions are what the pattern wants/needs to take place.
All good things come to those who wait.

Who performs the worst atrocity in this book: Egwene or Rand? (A good Cannoli question) Matrimony Cauthon - 13/11/2009 06:22:50 PM 2244 Views
Given the chance, Egwene would certainly have chosen death herself had she been captured Lordling - 13/11/2009 07:04:02 PM 970 Views

Your hatred and judgment of Egwene is obsessive and at times unreasonable. Like right now. *NM* lord-of-shadow - 14/11/2009 03:56:34 AM 522 Views

Not true. Verin did in fact serve the DO. She admited as much darius_sedai - 12/12/2009 04:28:56 AM 783 Views
