It's importance lies in it's strategic location. Rurouni_Kenshin Send a noteboard - 16/12/2009 04:46:20 AM
Compared to the Shadowspawn in the Blight, the Asha'man in the Black Tower, the Aiel or the Seanchan, who cares about Murandy?



The fact that's it's politically disunited and ignored is a plus. He can take over and unify the country without any of the big players really paying attention to him and mass a huge army there. Not only of men, but of Trollocs whom he can bring through a waygate. (It's likely that Coremanda had one somewhere in the country). When the time comes he can blitz five different countries at once. It lies in the center of the land. From there he can attack north towards Caemlyn, southeast towards Far Madding, south towards Illian, southwest towards Ebou Dar, and to the west towards Jehannah.
When the Wolf King carries the hammer, thus are the final days known. When the fox marries the raven, and the trumpets of battle are blown.

But it's still a small country - 15/12/2009 03:06:24 PM 703 Views
Again, Murandy might be a bit smaller - 15/12/2009 03:10:11 PM 739 Views

The Dragonsworn made chaos in half of the Westlands. - 15/12/2009 04:55:00 PM 948 Views
Agreed, only Sammael, Rhavin and Be'lal really laid claim to nations - 15/12/2009 07:12:17 PM 675 Views
to confirm you - 15/12/2009 10:47:22 PM 690 Views
I'm just not convinced that this would be a coup major enough to earn Demandred DO Kudos. - 15/12/2009 03:06:54 PM 701 Views
As said, controlling Murandy plus chaos by the Dragonsworn in 6 Westland nations. *NM* - 15/12/2009 03:11:25 PM 304 Views
well no, arad doman and tarabon were not his.... *NM* - 15/12/2009 03:57:27 PM 331 Views
Umm.., care to elaborate? *NM* - 15/12/2009 04:10:15 PM 300 Views
I was pretty sure that the Dragonsworn as a fighting force were destroyed. - 15/12/2009 04:07:38 PM 643 Views
But the Dragonsworn caused much chaos everywhere they were through the series... - 15/12/2009 04:28:42 PM 617 Views
But that's not the Shadow's aim. - 15/12/2009 06:32:38 PM 686 Views
I have always said that Demandred is loosely based on Hannibal Barca... - 15/12/2009 04:29:22 PM 724 Views
Those a pretty flimsy conformities, IMO... - 15/12/2009 04:53:04 PM 669 Views
Of course.. - 15/12/2009 05:06:04 PM 673 Views
The Seanchan have elephants too ... S'redit I think they call them - 16/12/2009 12:04:40 AM 743 Views
Yes, but with so many Trollocs who needs vast armies of men? - 15/12/2009 07:15:08 PM 644 Views

well, it's not like the Forsaken have been particularly impressive thus far - 16/12/2009 06:51:38 PM 625 Views
It's about the impact of action. Timing. - 15/12/2009 10:53:03 PM 635 Views
Why does Demandred say: "We" will be ready? Why not "I" will be ready? - 15/12/2009 04:06:42 PM 833 Views
Well... - 15/12/2009 04:22:57 PM 697 Views

I think some Murandians might mention Trollocs gathering there. - 16/12/2009 07:05:29 AM 653 Views
what if they're wearing dresses and lady masks? *NM* - 16/12/2009 09:10:57 AM 291 Views
Do the ladies in Murandy wear masks? I don't recall. - 16/12/2009 09:24:46 AM 641 Views
masks to look like ladies *NM* - 16/12/2009 04:11:07 PM 307 Views
Note to self: Avoid the Murandian ladies... *NM* - 16/12/2009 05:06:04 PM 306 Views
Moridin is gathering the Trollocs in the Blight, as we learn in TGS! - 16/12/2009 12:13:38 PM 636 Views
A Murandian army is insignificant. - 16/12/2009 07:59:54 PM 623 Views
For example, the Great Captain Bryne doesn't agree with you... - 16/12/2009 08:25:19 PM 629 Views
Maybe he's based in an alternate universe? - 16/12/2009 09:26:53 PM 627 Views
He doesn't? - 16/12/2009 11:37:34 PM 591 Views

Well that depends. - 17/12/2009 08:33:12 PM 620 Views
As said, it's additional chaos and strife. - 16/12/2009 12:01:05 PM 1024 Views
Its illogical to assume that Westlanders... - 16/12/2009 12:25:08 AM 642 Views
But that is exactly... - 16/12/2009 11:53:11 AM 639 Views
I agree mostly. It's a common RJ theme - 16/12/2009 07:42:39 AM 669 Views
Honestly, at this point - 16/12/2009 09:07:35 AM 650 Views

Aran'gar playing Demandred... - 17/12/2009 06:23:23 PM 642 Views
Ah, right that order is certainly out of character with Demandred. *NM* - 17/12/2009 06:40:32 PM 264 Views
