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 791 Views
what about Lan's bond - 01/12/2009 11:23:35 PM 747 Views
I think that the doorway melting did that. - 02/12/2009 12:49:02 AM 861 Views
Not manually - 02/12/2009 07:13:09 AM 673 Views
Not sure, but it seemed like she planned for it. At one point - 02/12/2009 01:23:36 AM 661 Views
Rand wasn't stilled when - 02/12/2009 06:48:42 AM 707 Views

I think that since Moiraine was in another dimension, the Bond passed to the closest holder. - 01/12/2009 11:43:15 PM 742 Views
but she'd been there before - 01/12/2009 11:51:41 PM 823 Views
I don't understand why you think there are too many assumptions - 02/12/2009 12:57:50 AM 783 Views
Exactly. Thanks for translating in fewer words than I would have used *NM* - 02/12/2009 04:21:06 PM 485 Views
that assumes quite a bit about the structure of the bond - 02/12/2009 07:45:37 PM 761 Views
My only complaint... - 02/12/2009 12:34:34 AM 708 Views

BS not committing to the Cyndane = Lanfear scenario has me wondering as well - 02/12/2009 02:51:30 AM 937 Views
The only possibility is "something weird" if Cyndane ISN'T just "Lanfear" - 02/12/2009 05:26:23 AM 699 Views
Re: The only possibility is "something weird" if Cyndane ISN'T just "Lanfear" - 02/12/2009 05:46:30 AM 751 Views
That would be absolutely hilarious!!! *NM* - 02/12/2009 05:49:01 AM 398 Views
That'd blow some minds. *NM* - 02/12/2009 05:56:06 AM 427 Views
Maybe they put some of Ilyena in Cyndane. - 04/12/2009 06:52:01 PM 801 Views
LOL ... Lanfear doesn't need Ilyena to be an LTT stalker! - 04/12/2009 07:09:02 PM 741 Views
Right, But Ilyena Doesn't Need Lanfear for That Either. - 04/12/2009 07:17:29 PM 742 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 616 Views
Never Said It Had to Be the DO. - 04/12/2009 09:43:58 PM 614 Views
it would indeed be a totall shocker! - 04/12/2009 09:50:16 PM 871 Views
Weird is a given, I think - 02/12/2009 07:12:45 AM 876 Views
It may be as simple as... - 02/12/2009 09:42:50 AM 677 Views
I didn't see any sexual connotation attached to it.... - 02/12/2009 10:38:07 AM 686 Views
Not sexual, no... - 02/12/2009 06:12:15 PM 691 Views

I doubt it - 02/12/2009 08:55:23 PM 683 Views
Maybe it's a wild goose chase. - 04/12/2009 06:44:55 PM 835 Views

But that doesn't explain why Leane and Siuan are now essentially equal - 02/12/2009 06:21:47 PM 714 Views
oops I double posted this! *NM* - 02/12/2009 06:23:02 PM 378 Views
I don't think they're equal - 03/12/2009 04:43:13 AM 661 Views
Re: There are several holes with this scenario... - 02/12/2009 09:08:00 PM 864 Views
I don't think they were stilled or burned out. - 02/12/2009 04:37:09 AM 609 Views
I have no opinion on the theory (yet), but - 02/12/2009 04:42:36 AM 672 Views
Disagree. There's no way they don't. - 02/12/2009 05:26:00 AM 677 Views

Yub, I generally agree - 02/12/2009 11:56:03 AM 633 Views
I'm always nervous when we agree - 02/12/2009 04:24:51 PM 668 Views
I think it's cool! - 02/12/2009 06:01:32 PM 631 Views
