The same can be said of Nynaeve and Mat darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 11/12/2009 07:20:47 AM
This has been her major character flaw throughout the series. If she wasn't a hypocrite, she would be nothing but a total Mary Sue. Being a hypocrite is a large part of what makes Egwene, Egwene. Imagine if she wasn't a hypocrite? How boring and uninteresting of a character would she be?


and to a degree Rand and Perrin too! It's thematic of the series, very few of the characters effectively communicate and as such have large streaks of hypocrisy.

What crime? Accepting her unethical promotions? Being afraid of the Hall's injustice? Cannoli - 10/12/2009 03:51:05 PM 799 Views

It does NOT violate Tower Law, as Myrelle herself said, and Siuan admits. Cannoli - 17/12/2009 12:23:25 PM 727 Views
I can't decide if you just don't understand the books at all darius_sedai - 13/12/2009 05:14:22 AM 618 Views

No she was right, and even her blackmail, as reprehensible as that was, was not an act of tyranny Cannoli - 10/12/2009 03:56:41 PM 845 Views
Sure. Fanatic-Templar - 10/12/2009 05:03:00 PM 655 Views

They refuse to reveal the Ajah Heads to Egwene, despite her express orders. Doubt Meidani could... fionwe1987 - 12/12/2009 09:44:23 AM 794 Views
