I often explained it, because many don't seem to get it Etzel Send a noteboard - 20/11/2009 12:17:21 PM
Because it obviously would have a more powerful impact. If Graendal was the killer, BS just had the chance to reveal it in her PoV in TGS, prologue. Why then, should he skip this opportunity to let it e.g. Moridin tell someone else that Graendal did it? Makes no sense.

And if SLAYER were the killer (note that "were", not "was" is the correct subjunctive form here), why wouldn't he be more proud about that accomplishment than killing a couple of stupid Black Ajah Aes Sedai when it was HIS PoV??? It's funny how you use one argument to disregard one person while ignoring that same argument to favor another.


Isam & Luc obviously hate Aes Sedai for very personal reasons (in short: Isam is Malkieri, Luc was manipulated by AS). Therefore Slayer likes to kill AS best, of course especially in such a bloody way like it was possible in TSR. On the other hand, nothing suggests that Slayer hated Asmo that much, who was after all a former possible patron. It's rather ridiculous to believe that Slayer prefers to kill "more powerful people", as you seem to believe, since he also considers in his PoV that it's just "a pity" that he won't soon get another chance to kill the most powerful person in the world, Rand (and he still thinks about those AS as his best kill, while he is on his way to kill the DR, whom he just calls his nephew!).

Since BS said that Slayer will be in ToM and possibly in AMoL, he can still reveal it in his PoV.

Another blow to the Graendaldunnit-theory Etzel - 14/11/2009 10:41:32 AM 1251 Views
I don't see any reason the Graendal theory is wrong from that. Tom - 14/11/2009 02:53:25 PM 700 Views
He has stated that they will put the mystery to rest in the final books... ursidae - 14/11/2009 04:02:53 PM 811 Views
I actually figured a way that this could come up quite naturally without Graendal Jim - 14/11/2009 04:11:24 PM 811 Views
RJ said it will probably revealed in the killer's PoV Etzel - 14/11/2009 04:46:20 PM 654 Views
And Brandon said Harriet gave him the freedom to tell the story as he wishes. TaskmasterJack - 14/11/2009 06:05:40 PM 620 Views
We (you, me & RJ) agree that it would be best to reveal it in the killer's PoV Etzel - 14/11/2009 06:40:33 PM 631 Views
Wait...wait...this is funny. Tom - 20/11/2009 02:05:26 AM 548 Views

So maybe Graendal didn't care enough about Asmodean, either. Tom - 20/11/2009 02:07:02 PM 537 Views
Neither Graendal nor Slayer mention killing Asmo... Etzel - 20/11/2009 02:46:40 PM 676 Views
I'm sure you can see... Legolas - 20/11/2009 03:25:41 PM 629 Views
Well... Etzel - 20/11/2009 05:23:28 PM 536 Views
It seems you think I don't read any posts and you certainly haven't read this board much. Tom - 14/11/2009 04:30:06 PM 609 Views
That's wrong Etzel - 14/11/2009 04:45:02 PM 718 Views
Not one word of what I wrote is wrong. Tom - 15/11/2009 01:41:18 AM 643 Views
right here Jim - 15/11/2009 03:04:57 AM 591 Views
If Graendal's name is mentioned, then "Graendal" is in the book. *NM* Tom - 15/11/2009 12:13:57 PM 267 Views
BS just said that Graendal will be mentioned, not appear as a character in ToM. *NM* Etzel - 15/11/2009 09:58:53 AM 259 Views
I never said "appear as a character." *NM* Tom - 15/11/2009 12:14:16 PM 238 Views
Etzel - 15/11/2009 12:44:07 PM 680 Views
BS never would have figured it out himself that Graendal did it? *NM* Etzel - 14/11/2009 05:20:19 PM 255 Views
Re: I don't see any reason the Graendal theory is wrong from that. BlackAdder - 19/11/2009 12:07:25 AM 813 Views
Just once it would be nice to get a blow from Graendal. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 14/11/2009 03:50:41 PM 239 Views
Agreed. *NM* Etzel - 14/11/2009 04:46:33 PM 229 Views
Nope, that's not a blow against it at all beetnemesis - 14/11/2009 06:32:10 PM 527 Views
I don't agree with this interpretation at all - your grasping for straws... kcf - 14/11/2009 07:34:58 PM 604 Views
Agreed *NM* Sidious - 15/11/2009 06:55:44 AM 234 Views
I disagree... Etzel - 15/11/2009 09:57:23 AM 631 Views
Only if you make the assumption that she was the most obvious to Sanderson. lord-of-shadow - 14/11/2009 07:37:39 PM 669 Views
Personally... Legolas - 15/11/2009 12:11:50 AM 660 Views
I think... Etzel - 15/11/2009 09:55:42 AM 535 Views
No. Try again. everynametaken - 14/11/2009 11:35:59 PM 676 Views
Ok, I will stay alert for further blows to Graendaldunnit, if this didn't already convince you! *NM* Etzel - 15/11/2009 10:02:26 AM 235 Views
Actually this is more against the Slayer theory Sidious - 15/11/2009 01:49:08 PM 599 Views
Nonsense... Etzel - 15/11/2009 02:06:04 PM 572 Views
Your tenacity is impressive. Legolas - 15/11/2009 03:14:50 PM 624 Views
Absolut statements in such discussions... Etzel - 15/11/2009 03:53:22 PM 553 Views

It's also possible that Lanfear gave Slayer the task. *NM* Etzel - 15/11/2009 07:55:17 PM 786 Views
Pa'ah did it. *NM* Mjolner - 18/11/2009 01:02:09 AM 243 Views
It is not gone, I have a copy of it *NM* Ryan - 15/11/2009 06:19:11 PM 233 Views
I agree with Etzel. Skeeve the Great - 20/11/2009 02:59:44 AM 540 Views
