Exactly. The weave itself didn't fail but the flows were powerless against the bubble of evil. RugbyPlayingAshaman Send a noteboard - 02/12/2009 04:52:03 PM
I think the solution is much more difficult to accomplish; Rand and Co need to bring order to the Pattern in order for it to Heal itself. Chaos caused the Pattern to weaken, and it seems the only way to defeat the Shadow is for Rand to "clear away the debris", which can be interpreted to mean archaic civilizations, power structures and institutions, in order to create a new system that can revitalize humanity ("belief and order give strength", which seems much more difficult than winning a mere succession of battlefields.

P.S. Which brings me to my pet peeve of finding so many channelers, none of whom have been said to be strong in Water.

Maybe, but I think the problem is the Dark One's ability to affect weaves that should last forever. - 02/12/2009 04:15:28 PM 728 Views
It's also interesting to see... - 02/12/2009 04:46:43 PM 658 Views
