Talaan and Someryn are pure guesses from Dom... Shannow Send a noteboard - 17/11/2009 10:06:56 PM


And we have Cyndane's PoV immediately before the Cleansing starts. Nothing suggests then that a shield was released or something like this. IIRC, also Graendal remarks in PoD that Cyndane is super strong.


I know, it's a stretch to imply a shield like this. I really think that BS mispoke. I hope we get a clarification.


Are there actual quotes on Sharina and Someryn to support it, or is it just an educated guess?


These come from Dom, so I can't say for sure. However, I do believe there are quotes to support this.


Graendal merely says that Someryn is "not negligible" in strength.

That certainly does not suggest that she is stronger than Semirhage or Nynaeve.

As for Talaan, she equals Nynaeve before Nynaeve reaches her full potential.

Anyway, thanks to KCF for the great info. I'm just puzzled by one or two of the comments.
