Best. Slashfic. EVER! The Name With No Man Send a noteboard - 02/12/2009 12:38:06 AM
I'm sorry, I really couldn't help myself. :disapprove:

To your points:

Conventional wisdom is frequently an oxymoron. Taimandred was wildly popular right up till Jordan explicitly refuted it (twice.)

We have no way of knowing what happened to Mo's Bond. We aren't supposed to know. She could be dead, she could be stilled, perhaps the Finns did something. We don't know. There's only one known gateway to that part (section? dimension? who knows?) of the disjointed land of the Finns, so perhaps with its destruction there was no longer a link between Mo and the outside world and the Bond had no way to maintain its hold. It could spring back good as new when she emerges, or be permanently severed. We. Do. Not. Know.

Conventional wisdom is as sure Cyndane is Lanfear as it was of Taimandred. Sanderson won't go on the record, has only implied it a few times when pressed. That seem a little fishy to you? If she is Lanfear, then Lanfear obviously died and was resurrected. Before Nynaeve learned to Heal severing, IIRC, so I don't think that's why she can channel again. We don't even know that a severed or burned out person remains that way if transmigrated.

We know Cyndane is a former prisoner of the Finns because she refers to it in her PoV while fighting Alivia at the Cleansing. We know Mo is alive because Aes Sedai can't write a lie any more than speak one. We know Mat, Thom and another are coming for her. That's about all we know right now. Not to say you're wrong, but I'm not committing to anything yet.

I don't think Moiraine was stilled. - 01/12/2009 11:19:03 PM 988 Views
what about Lan's bond - 01/12/2009 11:23:35 PM 970 Views
I think that the doorway melting did that. - 02/12/2009 12:49:02 AM 1045 Views
Not manually - 02/12/2009 07:13:09 AM 891 Views
Not sure, but it seemed like she planned for it. At one point - 02/12/2009 01:23:36 AM 863 Views
Rand wasn't stilled when - 02/12/2009 06:48:42 AM 890 Views

I think that since Moiraine was in another dimension, the Bond passed to the closest holder. - 01/12/2009 11:43:15 PM 959 Views
but she'd been there before - 01/12/2009 11:51:41 PM 1035 Views
I don't understand why you think there are too many assumptions - 02/12/2009 12:57:50 AM 1003 Views
Exactly. Thanks for translating in fewer words than I would have used *NM* - 02/12/2009 04:21:06 PM 572 Views
that assumes quite a bit about the structure of the bond - 02/12/2009 07:45:37 PM 997 Views
My only complaint... - 02/12/2009 12:34:34 AM 917 Views

BS not committing to the Cyndane = Lanfear scenario has me wondering as well - 02/12/2009 02:51:30 AM 1163 Views
The only possibility is "something weird" if Cyndane ISN'T just "Lanfear" - 02/12/2009 05:26:23 AM 912 Views
Re: The only possibility is "something weird" if Cyndane ISN'T just "Lanfear" - 02/12/2009 05:46:30 AM 973 Views
That would be absolutely hilarious!!! *NM* - 02/12/2009 05:49:01 AM 497 Views
That'd blow some minds. *NM* - 02/12/2009 05:56:06 AM 526 Views
Maybe they put some of Ilyena in Cyndane. - 04/12/2009 06:52:01 PM 984 Views
LOL ... Lanfear doesn't need Ilyena to be an LTT stalker! - 04/12/2009 07:09:02 PM 946 Views
Right, But Ilyena Doesn't Need Lanfear for That Either. - 04/12/2009 07:17:29 PM 955 Views
I'm 99.99% sure RJ said that the DO had to grab a soul quickly after death or it was lost - 04/12/2009 09:13:18 PM 811 Views
Never Said It Had to Be the DO. - 04/12/2009 09:43:58 PM 812 Views
it would indeed be a totall shocker! - 04/12/2009 09:50:16 PM 1065 Views
Weird is a given, I think - 02/12/2009 07:12:45 AM 1062 Views
It may be as simple as... - 02/12/2009 09:42:50 AM 872 Views
I didn't see any sexual connotation attached to it.... - 02/12/2009 10:38:07 AM 865 Views
Not sexual, no... - 02/12/2009 06:12:15 PM 884 Views

I doubt it - 02/12/2009 08:55:23 PM 899 Views
Maybe it's a wild goose chase. - 04/12/2009 06:44:55 PM 1038 Views

But that doesn't explain why Leane and Siuan are now essentially equal - 02/12/2009 06:21:47 PM 910 Views
oops I double posted this! *NM* - 02/12/2009 06:23:02 PM 465 Views
I don't think they're equal - 03/12/2009 04:43:13 AM 860 Views
Re: There are several holes with this scenario... - 02/12/2009 09:08:00 PM 1102 Views
I don't think they were stilled or burned out. - 02/12/2009 04:37:09 AM 822 Views
I have no opinion on the theory (yet), but - 02/12/2009 04:42:36 AM 874 Views
Disagree. There's no way they don't. - 02/12/2009 05:26:00 AM 887 Views

Yub, I generally agree - 02/12/2009 11:56:03 AM 816 Views
I'm always nervous when we agree - 02/12/2009 04:24:51 PM 865 Views
