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 1088 Views
what about Lan's bond - 01/12/2009 11:23:35 PM 1050 Views
I think that the doorway melting did that. - 02/12/2009 12:49:02 AM 1131 Views
Not manually - 02/12/2009 07:13:09 AM 974 Views
Not sure, but it seemed like she planned for it. At one point - 02/12/2009 01:23:36 AM 972 Views
Rand wasn't stilled when - 02/12/2009 06:48:42 AM 998 Views

Not just an assumption. - 01/12/2009 11:38:56 PM 1109 Views

I think that since Moiraine was in another dimension, the Bond passed to the closest holder. - 01/12/2009 11:43:15 PM 1070 Views
but she'd been there before - 01/12/2009 11:51:41 PM 1130 Views
I don't understand why you think there are too many assumptions - 02/12/2009 12:57:50 AM 1092 Views
Exactly. Thanks for translating in fewer words than I would have used *NM* - 02/12/2009 04:21:06 PM 623 Views
that assumes quite a bit about the structure of the bond - 02/12/2009 07:45:37 PM 1125 Views
My only complaint... - 02/12/2009 12:34:34 AM 1021 Views

BS not committing to the Cyndane = Lanfear scenario has me wondering as well - 02/12/2009 02:51:30 AM 1275 Views
The only possibility is "something weird" if Cyndane ISN'T just "Lanfear" - 02/12/2009 05:26:23 AM 1016 Views
Re: The only possibility is "something weird" if Cyndane ISN'T just "Lanfear" - 02/12/2009 05:46:30 AM 1081 Views
That would be absolutely hilarious!!! *NM* - 02/12/2009 05:49:01 AM 549 Views
That'd blow some minds. *NM* - 02/12/2009 05:56:06 AM 563 Views
Maybe they put some of Ilyena in Cyndane. - 04/12/2009 06:52:01 PM 1082 Views
LOL ... Lanfear doesn't need Ilyena to be an LTT stalker! - 04/12/2009 07:09:02 PM 1054 Views
Right, But Ilyena Doesn't Need Lanfear for That Either. - 04/12/2009 07:17:29 PM 1051 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 903 Views
Never Said It Had to Be the DO. - 04/12/2009 09:43:58 PM 899 Views
it would indeed be a totall shocker! - 04/12/2009 09:50:16 PM 1170 Views
Weird is a given, I think - 02/12/2009 07:12:45 AM 1165 Views
It may be as simple as... - 02/12/2009 09:42:50 AM 966 Views
I didn't see any sexual connotation attached to it.... - 02/12/2009 10:38:07 AM 964 Views
Not sexual, no... - 02/12/2009 06:12:15 PM 983 Views

Maybe it's a wild goose chase. - 04/12/2009 06:44:55 PM 1152 Views

But that doesn't explain why Leane and Siuan are now essentially equal - 02/12/2009 06:21:47 PM 999 Views
oops I double posted this! *NM* - 02/12/2009 06:23:02 PM 506 Views
I don't think they're equal - 03/12/2009 04:43:13 AM 951 Views
Re: There are several holes with this scenario... - 02/12/2009 09:08:00 PM 1246 Views
I don't think they were stilled or burned out. - 02/12/2009 04:37:09 AM 915 Views
I have no opinion on the theory (yet), but - 02/12/2009 04:42:36 AM 954 Views
Disagree. There's no way they don't. - 02/12/2009 05:26:00 AM 989 Views

Yub, I generally agree - 02/12/2009 11:56:03 AM 908 Views
I'm always nervous when we agree - 02/12/2009 04:24:51 PM 956 Views
