Re: The "Binder" is another form of Slavery. artois Send a noteboard - 10/12/2009 12:09:31 AM
I realize that you and Cannoli would love for all channelers to run around unhampered by any oath at all, but in such a world the various channeling factions would either rule totally (maybe fighting one another using their pathetic non channeling slaves as pawns), or piss off the non channelers so much that they invent some sort of device to enslave channelers (or kill them all).

The AoL was a world evolved too over AGES. I feel confidant that the reason the world was so peaceful is that in previous ages such conflicts as I describe were so horrible that channelers finally became some sort of benevolent rulers like something out of Plato.

wishful thinking if you ask me. The point is "freedom" from leashes. Having the take oaths is worse. *NM* amirebram - 09/12/2009 07:46:35 PM 321 Views

I'd rather see them keep the a'dam, and just leash all the current sul'dam imlad - 18/12/2009 03:04:22 AM 883 Views
Fortuona didn't save Egwene and a Fourth Oath to an Empress is worse than what Elaida wanted. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 09/12/2009 08:18:17 PM 749 Views

I don't know about being 'quick' - we've had at least 8 books to become familiar with the cultures RugbyPlayingAshaman - 11/12/2009 03:18:32 PM 799 Views

When did Tuon save Egwene ? *NM* Simon - 10/12/2009 11:49:29 AM 299 Views
It refers to part of Egwene's dream that is yet unfulfilled. It COULD mean Tuon save her. *NM* redhand - 10/12/2009 03:46:15 PM 295 Views
