Well Marshall Send a noteboard - 06/12/2009 08:45:12 PM
I personally believe that RJ didn't leave notes specifically concerning how Graendal would meet her fate. Maybe he did, but many of the events leading up to her dead were undoubtedly Sanderson. And while Sanderson's done a great job, I get the feeling that his grasp on both the One Power and repercussions of making small mistakes like this is minimal at best. RJ spent so long writing the books because there is so much detail that one has to be careful about. Sanderson probably didn't think "Graendal would realize that Rand already found out about others whom I've put Compulsion and be more careful in the future."

I might be wrong, but I'd bet quite a bit that Graendal is toast.

Graendal's fate? - 02/11/2009 04:18:11 AM 1633 Views
Dead. - 02/11/2009 04:22:48 AM 702 Views
Maybe... - 02/11/2009 04:28:16 AM 675 Views
I think it's fair to say at this point that Graendal did not kill Asmodean. - 02/11/2009 04:36:37 AM 702 Views

Re: I think it's fair to say at this point that Graendal did not kill Asmodean. - 02/11/2009 05:08:09 AM 611 Views
Why has she been removed from the list of suspects? - 02/11/2009 02:29:41 PM 591 Views
She is dead - 09/11/2009 01:37:03 AM 540 Views
That's pretty terrible logic - 19/11/2009 05:58:57 AM 677 Views
I disagree. - 02/11/2009 10:29:21 PM 537 Views
Agreed. *NM* - 19/11/2009 11:43:45 AM 280 Views
Could it have been Verin who killed Asmodean? - 02/11/2009 05:20:37 AM 1111 Views
She is dead *spoilers* - 02/11/2009 05:44:21 AM 682 Views

Re: She is dead *spoilers* - 09/11/2009 01:38:56 AM 668 Views
I say dead. *NM* - 02/11/2009 06:07:15 AM 315 Views
Dead. - 02/11/2009 06:46:10 AM 537 Views
Dead as Dumbledore. But why does it preclude her from being Asmo's killer? - 02/11/2009 07:04:08 AM 630 Views
Right. That info could easily be revealed through the POV of another. *NM* - 02/11/2009 02:15:31 PM 285 Views
It could but... - 02/11/2009 03:14:23 PM 620 Views
Moridin would most likely know. - 02/11/2009 04:06:04 PM 531 Views
Well.... - 02/11/2009 08:52:52 AM 592 Views
*NM* - 18/11/2009 10:45:52 PM 269 Views
Alive until proven otherwise IMO *spoilers* - 02/11/2009 03:47:51 PM 618 Views
That weave was very complex. - 02/11/2009 10:34:36 PM 543 Views
Actually, the one that Rand had Nynaeve study earlier was more complex. - 04/11/2009 05:11:07 PM 615 Views
But you can't reverse Compulsion by unraveling it, right? - 18/11/2009 10:48:08 PM 555 Views
Almost certainly dead - 02/11/2009 04:48:18 PM 700 Views
Yeah. Compared to, say, Sammael's "death" - 02/11/2009 10:40:01 PM 605 Views
Not even almost. Graendal and Sammael now both go well with eggs. *NM* - 03/11/2009 01:51:15 AM 307 Views
Oh, I agree, but fiction, deus ex machina, etc - 04/11/2009 09:58:42 PM 550 Views
Graendal is dead. the evidence is pretty hard - 03/11/2009 08:00:27 PM 2874 Views
Well, unlike everyone else, - 04/11/2009 01:34:57 AM 552 Views
Alive. It's the simplest answer for me, especially considering that Rand knew she was more cunning - 04/11/2009 05:03:38 PM 705 Views
Re: Balefire. - 04/11/2009 05:30:12 PM 548 Views
Not necessarily. - 04/11/2009 06:08:34 PM 508 Views
The thing is... - 04/11/2009 06:25:43 PM 594 Views
Here's the rub - she had no desire to come into contact with Rand. - 04/11/2009 10:30:05 PM 780 Views
Hm. Possible. - 04/11/2009 06:42:12 PM 836 Views
I think it's the most simple possibility. - 04/11/2009 10:39:02 PM 558 Views
Re: I think it's the most simple possibility. - 09/11/2009 01:51:52 AM 483 Views
That's just absurd - 04/11/2009 10:48:30 PM 623 Views
No, I'm making it more simple. - 04/11/2009 11:11:36 PM 569 Views
That thoery doesn't account for the undoing of the Compulsion - 04/11/2009 11:50:06 PM 572 Views
Yes, it does. Distance causes maintained weaves and Links to attenuate. - 05/11/2009 04:22:37 PM 614 Views
Yes, but Compulsion is almost never a maintained weave *NM* - 06/11/2009 07:19:24 PM 321 Views
But the real question in my mind... - 02/12/2009 08:28:31 PM 549 Views
Well - 06/12/2009 08:45:12 PM 992 Views
Odds are she's dead - 06/12/2009 08:48:19 PM 426 Views
Re: No, I'm making it more simple. - 09/11/2009 01:53:49 AM 558 Views
Amen! Praise the Great Lord of the Dark! **I agree with all points** - 05/11/2009 07:21:52 AM 592 Views
This sounds familiar. - 09/11/2009 06:54:17 AM 509 Views
Yes... - 17/11/2009 12:12:04 PM 506 Views
Yeah, I was shocked initially. - 18/11/2009 10:58:15 PM 542 Views

But Rand's was spread over a LARGE area *NM* - 27/11/2009 12:17:47 AM 242 Views
He was drawing through the Choedan Kal... *NM* - 27/11/2009 01:09:23 AM 232 Views
