I am sure that there are Blue Blood damane artois Send a noteboard - 10/12/2009 12:24:41 AM
It is a society that horrifies our 21st C sensibilities. But between the common people preferring them (the Seanchan MUST be better than what the common folk had before...otherwise the people would not be so comfortable with them-in 'real' history conquering groups must be MUCH better for the commons to accept them openly), and the Tinkers flocking to them (in the AOL Tinkers flock to serve the pacifist AS), and no barriers to trade that I can see, the Seanchan are only inferior in the way they treat da'covale and channelers. Trust me,98% of the people who lived in pre-Rand Tear or Cairhein would prefer the Seanchan in a heartbeat over being 'peasants (re:slaves)' to their greety Lords.

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 323 Views
I think we already know Egwene's position on a "Fourth Oath" Light in the Night - 09/12/2009 08:17:11 PM 978 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 887 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 754 Views
True, but... artois - 09/12/2009 10:02:13 PM 700 Views

Exactly *NM* artois - 10/12/2009 05:17:59 AM 286 Views
yet both groups hold highly influential positions within their societies without being shunned *NM* darius_sedai - 10/12/2009 06:31:15 AM 305 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 804 Views
I am thinking about straight oath without WT training. redhand - 09/12/2009 09:04:15 PM 809 Views
I Like This! *NM* *NM* artois - 09/12/2009 10:03:07 PM 292 Views

When did Tuon save Egwene ? *NM* Simon - 10/12/2009 11:49:29 AM 301 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 296 Views
