I never really had much of an opinion on it, until just now when reading Leigh Butler's WoT reread, because reading a synopsis like that helps with seeing the bigger pictures in the plot and not just what happens from chapter to chapter. And the thing is, Rahvin had that plan with Graendal and Lanfear (and Sammael, sort of). When Rand came for him, they were to be there. They're the only two candidates who we know had a good reason to be there. And then as for choosing between the two, well, obviously Lanfear would make the most sense with regard to dramatic tension and the "You?! No!", but considering what happened earlier that day, Graendal seems more logical, as any theory involving Lanfear requires massive assumptions that have little support in the text to explain her getting back so fast; it's not impossible, but RJ's claims that the clues are all there would be a little strange then. If Cyndane ever gives us some more substantive insight into what happened to her, that should settle the debate once and for all either way, even if Asmodean is never mentioned.

Another blow to the Graendaldunnit-theory - 14/11/2009 10:41:32 AM 1450 Views
I don't see any reason the Graendal theory is wrong from that. - 14/11/2009 02:53:25 PM 877 Views
He has stated that they will put the mystery to rest in the final books... - 14/11/2009 04:02:53 PM 1022 Views
I actually figured a way that this could come up quite naturally without Graendal - 14/11/2009 04:11:24 PM 974 Views
RJ said it will probably revealed in the killer's PoV - 14/11/2009 04:46:20 PM 818 Views
And Brandon said Harriet gave him the freedom to tell the story as he wishes. - 14/11/2009 06:05:40 PM 774 Views
We (you, me & RJ) agree that it would be best to reveal it in the killer's PoV - 14/11/2009 06:40:33 PM 810 Views
Wait...wait...this is funny. - 20/11/2009 02:05:26 AM 691 Views
I often explained it, because many don't seem to get it - 20/11/2009 12:17:21 PM 675 Views
So maybe Graendal didn't care enough about Asmodean, either. - 20/11/2009 02:07:02 PM 710 Views
Neither Graendal nor Slayer mention killing Asmo... - 20/11/2009 02:46:40 PM 840 Views
I'm sure you can see... - 20/11/2009 03:25:41 PM 851 Views
Well... - 20/11/2009 05:23:28 PM 694 Views
It seems you think I don't read any posts and you certainly haven't read this board much. - 14/11/2009 04:30:06 PM 768 Views
That's wrong - 14/11/2009 04:45:02 PM 883 Views
Not one word of what I wrote is wrong. - 15/11/2009 01:41:18 AM 827 Views
right here - 15/11/2009 03:04:57 AM 752 Views
BS just said that Graendal will be mentioned, not appear as a character in ToM. *NM* - 15/11/2009 09:58:53 AM 317 Views
I never said "appear as a character." *NM* - 15/11/2009 12:14:16 PM 316 Views

Just once it would be nice to get a blow from Graendal. *NM* - 14/11/2009 03:50:41 PM 301 Views
Agreed. *NM* - 14/11/2009 04:46:33 PM 305 Views
Nope, that's not a blow against it at all - 14/11/2009 06:32:10 PM 672 Views
I don't agree with this interpretation at all - your grasping for straws... - 14/11/2009 07:34:58 PM 781 Views
Agreed *NM* - 15/11/2009 06:55:44 AM 298 Views
I disagree... - 15/11/2009 09:57:23 AM 774 Views
Only if you make the assumption that she was the most obvious to Sanderson. - 14/11/2009 07:37:39 PM 837 Views
Personally... - 15/11/2009 12:11:50 AM 837 Views
I think... - 15/11/2009 09:55:42 AM 700 Views
No. Try again. - 14/11/2009 11:35:59 PM 863 Views
Actually this is more against the Slayer theory - 15/11/2009 01:49:08 PM 755 Views
Nonsense... - 15/11/2009 02:06:04 PM 729 Views
Your tenacity is impressive. - 15/11/2009 03:14:50 PM 797 Views
Absolut statements in such discussions... - 15/11/2009 03:53:22 PM 704 Views

It's also possible that Lanfear gave Slayer the task. *NM* - 15/11/2009 07:55:17 PM 947 Views
Pa'ah did it. *NM* - 18/11/2009 01:02:09 AM 326 Views
It is not gone, I have a copy of it *NM* - 15/11/2009 06:19:11 PM 303 Views
I agree with Etzel. - 20/11/2009 02:59:44 AM 701 Views
