Re: not being able to shield Elayne Logain Send a noteboard - 28/11/2009 09:46:24 PM


This point kind of goes against what you are saying though. Nynaeve should never have been able to shield Moghedien or Talaan, not be unable to shield Elayne!


I too have been frustrated by this passage. I contribute this to the characters' mistaken assumptions. I think it was RJ showing us that the characters do not know everything. Alternatively, at the time of this statement it could have been true, but not true now?

Also, don't forget that Nynaeve is held by the two black ajah in Ebou Dar, but once she breaks free, she evenly matches against the two. That says a lot about how strong Nynaeve was at the time.

Is Nynaeve of "very rare" strength? Logain - 21/11/2009 02:53:22 PM 1548 Views

Actually, you are adding a word that isn't there. Logain - 21/11/2009 03:47:48 PM 1073 Views
IMO, it's self evident that the female list only contains named characters Etzel - 21/11/2009 03:58:33 PM 755 Views
IMO, the above post by "Logain" is trolling and not worth the debating!! *NM* Simon - 21/11/2009 04:01:08 PM 286 Views
I have a valid reason for asking. Logain - 21/11/2009 04:05:52 PM 855 Views

I find it unlikely that a super strong channeler would end up being unimportant to the plot *NM* Marshall - 21/11/2009 11:54:43 PM 271 Views
This sounds semi-mystical... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 24/11/2009 04:45:52 PM 550 Views
Also, if they were that strong, they would then be important. Marshall - 29/11/2009 05:24:35 PM 535 Views
she's in the top 0.1% of channelers we know of TheCrownless - 21/11/2009 03:01:02 PM 642 Views
She's in the top 0.05% *NM* Marshall - 21/11/2009 11:41:42 PM 272 Views
so shes also in the top 0.1%? *NM* TheCrownless - 22/11/2009 12:04:00 AM 275 Views
Of course. My figure is more exclusive. *NM* Marshall - 22/11/2009 12:23:23 AM 253 Views
Yes *NM* Simon - 21/11/2009 03:56:12 PM 265 Views
Yes, though obviously Etzel is right. Legolas - 21/11/2009 04:08:41 PM 799 Views

So, in terms of Nynaeve's power, do you think she is VERY rare? *NM* Logain - 21/11/2009 06:23:14 PM 275 Views
Yes. She is so rare that she is mythic. A foiled Nynaeve can prolly fetch $100. *NM* Bookwyrm - 21/11/2009 09:59:28 PM 275 Views
So what's the point? Why the quotes? *NM* BlackAdder - 21/11/2009 10:24:37 PM 259 Views

Don't forget Therava. She's stronger than any woman in the tower according to Galina. Logain - 28/11/2009 09:41:10 PM 539 Views

Fionwe1987 is right. We do have a large enough sample. And the linking examples are good. *NM* Logain - 28/11/2009 09:32:14 PM 260 Views
