I don't think they're equal Sidious Send a noteboard - 03/12/2009 04:43:13 AM
Before being Stilled Siuan was clearly stronger. Now she and Leane are pretty much equal in Power. If they had lost a set value from the Healing they would have maintained the same Power difference.

If you do the math (Siuan staring at 50 and Leanne at 45) they end up as a 16 and a 15 (very weak AS), which works cleaning if they each lost 2/3 of their strength yet wind up very close to each other.

I think a fixed % is far more likely in this case, for the very reason you state! The conduit needs the opposite source to be 100% effective.


I think I worked out that they lost 15 strength once, though I used 10 in the examples above with Fionwe.
Siuan : 25 - 15 = 10
Leane : 24 - 15 = 9

That essentially makes them a third as strong as they used to be. There's no proof that they're equal. Leane directly says that she's weaker than she was, and so is Siuan, though both were once very close in strength.

Of course, I'm scandalized that you think that Siuan has a strength of 50 - as if two of her could match Rand al'Thor. Perhaps this is for that other thread though ;)

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 746 Views
I think that the doorway melting did that. - 02/12/2009 12:49:02 AM 859 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 659 Views
Rand wasn't stilled when - 02/12/2009 06:48:42 AM 705 Views

I think that since Moiraine was in another dimension, the Bond passed to the closest holder. - 01/12/2009 11:43:15 PM 741 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 760 Views

BS not committing to the Cyndane = Lanfear scenario has me wondering as well - 02/12/2009 02:51:30 AM 935 Views
The only possibility is "something weird" if Cyndane ISN'T just "Lanfear" - 02/12/2009 05:26:23 AM 699 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 800 Views
LOL ... Lanfear doesn't need Ilyena to be an LTT stalker! - 04/12/2009 07:09:02 PM 739 Views
Right, But Ilyena Doesn't Need Lanfear for That Either. - 04/12/2009 07:17:29 PM 741 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 615 Views

But that doesn't explain why Leane and Siuan are now essentially equal - 02/12/2009 06:21:47 PM 713 Views
oops I double posted this! *NM* - 02/12/2009 06:23:02 PM 378 Views

I don't think they were stilled or burned out. - 02/12/2009 04:37:09 AM 608 Views
I have no opinion on the theory (yet), but - 02/12/2009 04:42:36 AM 671 Views
