But what was the purpose then? Etzel Send a noteboard - 28/12/2009 03:43:01 PM
Why did RJ show us that Fain captured and broke this Myrddraal in TSR, followed by some arrangement between them, and finally let Faim take the Myrddraal to Caemlyn in LoC?

Is the reason that RJ just wanted to point out that Fain can control a Myrddraal (which are anyway "cannon fodder" in your words)? Or might it be a little detail, which is largely overlooked, but might become important in ToM and/or AMoL? (the books will apparently feature Fain and Slayer, according to BS)

Fain's Myrddraal Etzel - 28/12/2009 01:45:58 PM 1876 Views
Nope, Myrddraal have been nothing but cannon fodder since book four *NM* Lordling - 28/12/2009 03:01:01 PM 458 Views
except, of course, for Shaidar Haran *NM* darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 03:12:17 PM 466 Views

To show the relationship between Fain and DO Bonden - 28/12/2009 03:52:59 PM 804 Views

Slayer also hunts Rand Etzel - 28/12/2009 03:57:11 PM 853 Views
I think it's possible that Slayer could have killed Asmo darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 04:35:57 PM 770 Views
The explanations Etzel - 28/12/2009 05:06:02 PM 1029 Views
Perhaps, I still don't buy it, but if that's the way it turns out I won't be shocked darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 05:20:06 PM 953 Views
Your reaction would be similar to BS's then Etzel - 28/12/2009 05:57:44 PM 1900 Views
I don't really have a strong opinion on which suspect did it darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 06:03:07 PM 772 Views
Well... Etzel - 28/12/2009 06:42:16 PM 822 Views
Indeed *NM* darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 06:55:52 PM 415 Views

The reason is... Etzel - 29/12/2009 11:58:24 AM 853 Views
The reasoning is very weak. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 03:34:19 PM 846 Views
If you mean... Etzel - 29/12/2009 04:01:25 PM 922 Views
A few points darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 04:14:12 PM 777 Views
You are wrong... Etzel - 29/12/2009 04:25:09 PM 760 Views
Thanks for the quote .. obviously hadn't heard that one before! darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 04:31:37 PM 869 Views
Key word - "possibly" RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 04:38:46 PM 776 Views
As said, if you just compare it to Alviarin's mark, it's clear. Etzel - 29/12/2009 05:06:47 PM 748 Views

Well, it protects you of Shadowspawn, not that bad. Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:12:04 PM 756 Views
I don't think what happened to Fain or Slayer are "gifts" darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 06:26:15 PM 679 Views
Slayer calls it "gifts" in his PoV Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:37:49 PM 722 Views
I think you are stretching the reality a bit darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 06:42:10 PM 762 Views
You confuse it a bit... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:57:07 PM 824 Views
I think you've got it backwards darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 07:12:02 PM 723 Views
However... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:16:08 PM 763 Views
I wasn't arguing that point darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 08:13:25 PM 986 Views
Some things don't have to be spelled out, if they are that clear... *NM* Etzel - 29/12/2009 08:18:05 PM 718 Views
clearly they do since people are discussing it! darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 09:37:00 PM 703 Views
Yes; it is not readily apparant that the mark was made with the TP. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:12:07 PM 760 Views
Sorry, but that is utter nonsense Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:24:54 PM 853 Views
You are incorrect; I'm actually thinking that you only skimmed certain sections! RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:38:37 PM 811 Views
Simply read the books and what the authors said... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:55:42 PM 767 Views
Sorry, I think you have an opinion and read everything to support it in this case. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:02:42 PM 734 Views
Ok, then we play dumb, if you like... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:14:58 PM 847 Views
Because the Dark One is not merely a super channeler. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:21:21 PM 865 Views
Well, I disagree of course... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:36:19 PM 980 Views
You are mistaken on quite a few counts. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 04:37:51 PM 928 Views
Actually... Etzel - 29/12/2009 05:04:54 PM 824 Views

Exactly. *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:12:30 PM 384 Views
Well... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:18:08 PM 876 Views
Just pointing out that your comment about Lanfear and Moggy not being assassins darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 06:37:21 PM 773 Views
No... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:47:07 PM 970 Views
Re: No... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:00:20 PM 942 Views
Again... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:10:12 PM 700 Views
So you dismiss the actual assassinations the Forsaken have performed on-screen? RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:26:55 PM 734 Views
Again... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:47:57 PM 672 Views
I think any Forsaken is capable of doing it. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 08:05:10 PM 771 Views
Then another Forsaken, e.g. Sammael.. Etzel - 29/12/2009 08:16:50 PM 648 Views

She kidnapped the Sharan's ... who's to say she hasn't killed others? *NM* darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 08:17:28 PM 395 Views
Yeah, after TFoH! We are looking for clues before LoC, guys! *sigh* Etzel - 29/12/2009 08:31:13 PM 621 Views
Where did I say this was a clue to her doing it? darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 09:58:29 PM 862 Views
I don't say... Etzel - 30/12/2009 12:08:27 PM 924 Views
Most of what you are talking about with Slayer is discoverd after LoC darius_sedai - 30/12/2009 02:36:18 PM 834 Views
Re: Well... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:41:29 PM 748 Views
It becomes clear... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:59:03 PM 680 Views
Basically, you think Slayer killed him. I do not. Nor do I care. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:04:20 PM 656 Views
Fair enough. *NM* Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:17:22 PM 445 Views

Fain's Myrddraal killed asmo LOL *NM* aldapelan - 29/12/2009 05:26:22 AM 449 Views
It is quite obvious that it was Mistress Laras. *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 03:35:36 PM 411 Views
Intuitively, even. *NM* Gher - 29/12/2009 06:03:13 PM 408 Views
