Just because Rand dies doesn't mean it can't somehow be turned to the Patterns advantange(There is at least one theory of the Dragon called forth by the Horn of Valere). And if Moridin dies at the wrong time he can't really stop or properly help the DO stop Rand in his signature fashion. If he doesn't defeat Rand before dying then he might be reborn which is contrary to what he wants. Also in another fashion if they die then the happy accident of them being linked will be dissolved.


I'm somewhat confused. I'm the one who said that the Shadow didn't want Rand dying, remember? But your last point does bring an interesting possibility - if they were life-linked, as you assume and I disagree with, then Shai'tan could simply kill Moridin and reincarnate him. Instant dead Dragon, and Shai'tan doesn't even lose anything.

Also a few sworn AS hardly match up against all other AS being appalled that such sisters swore and suspecting compulsion. And that suspicion hardly makes the difference between not trying to control him and being an ally


All right, maybe not disastrous.

How do we know it wasn't part of the DO's plan? - 22/11/2009 04:58:44 PM 758 Views
That presumes that Moridin KNEW that Rand could access the True Power through their link... - 22/11/2009 05:22:51 PM 818 Views
You're assuming that Rand channeled the TP through Moridin - 22/11/2009 06:01:46 PM 737 Views
You are correct. - 22/11/2009 06:11:11 PM 752 Views
Well, it was win-win for the Shadow. - 22/11/2009 08:18:12 PM 632 Views
The Shadow aka Moridin doesn't want Rand dead because he might die with him - 23/11/2009 12:40:08 AM 680 Views
No, I don't think so. - 23/11/2009 12:48:30 AM 660 Views

I agree, I think the Dark One DID give Rand permission to use the TP - 22/11/2009 06:56:55 PM 708 Views

You Understand Many Won't Catch That Final Reference, Yes? - 27/11/2009 02:26:44 PM 611 Views
I thought Rand was so desperate that he reached the True Power alone. - 23/11/2009 11:39:13 PM 593 Views
O saw no proof that he channelled through Moridin. *NM* - 24/11/2009 02:47:44 AM 299 Views
Not proof, but good reason. - 27/11/2009 05:16:09 PM 589 Views
