I always had the sense that the DO's minions are really just meant to be distractions darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 02/12/2009 06:30:27 AM
for Rand and company. Their winning/losing and various machinations don't mean much in the grand scheme they are pretty much one big red herring (planted by the DO)! Their role is to keep the light side busy until the DO can destroy the pattern once and for all... Ishamael is the only one who gets that.

If the Dark One wins, and destroys the Pattern, becomes the Creator and the Creator becomes the DO RugbyPlayingAshaman - 01/12/2009 06:36:47 PM 645 Views
I used to hope for that, but the DO quotes and his choice of followers make it hard to like him. *NM* Lord Haart - 01/12/2009 07:21:01 PM 285 Views
Fact is, people don't enjoy reading about doom and gloom. Lord Haart - 01/12/2009 04:33:35 PM 928 Views
Yes they do. They're called the Malazaniacs ... They love emo to the max ... Bookwyrm - 02/12/2009 06:57:42 AM 670 Views

This is why fanfiction of soap operas and comics can be more entertaining than the real thing. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 01/12/2009 06:09:17 PM 715 Views
Only if the DO isn't quite what we think he/it is. Lord Haart - 01/12/2009 07:19:44 PM 768 Views
Ooo, that's an interesting thought. Darth_Katie - 01/12/2009 07:45:44 PM 671 Views
Brilliant idea artois - 01/12/2009 08:01:39 PM 664 Views
Doesn't that sound a bit too much like Mistborn? Tom - 01/12/2009 10:09:32 PM 702 Views
Not so surprising... artois - 01/12/2009 10:18:39 PM 669 Views
No, there is no sense that the Shadow can or will win. Tom - 01/12/2009 09:23:47 PM 670 Views
It's why I prefer non-fiction more often. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 01/12/2009 10:26:35 PM 604 Views
