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 2020 Views
Nope, Myrddraal have been nothing but cannon fodder since book four *NM* Lordling - 28/12/2009 03:01:01 PM 529 Views
except, of course, for Shaidar Haran *NM* darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 03:12:17 PM 515 Views

To show the relationship between Fain and DO Bonden - 28/12/2009 03:52:59 PM 934 Views

Slayer also hunts Rand Etzel - 28/12/2009 03:57:11 PM 1000 Views
I think it's possible that Slayer could have killed Asmo darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 04:35:57 PM 895 Views
The explanations Etzel - 28/12/2009 05:06:02 PM 1159 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 1101 Views
Your reaction would be similar to BS's then Etzel - 28/12/2009 05:57:44 PM 2013 Views
I don't really have a strong opinion on which suspect did it darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 06:03:07 PM 897 Views
Well... Etzel - 28/12/2009 06:42:16 PM 942 Views
Indeed *NM* darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 06:55:52 PM 464 Views

The reason is... Etzel - 29/12/2009 11:58:24 AM 959 Views
The reasoning is very weak. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 03:34:19 PM 979 Views
If you mean... Etzel - 29/12/2009 04:01:25 PM 1064 Views
A few points darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 04:14:12 PM 896 Views
You are wrong... Etzel - 29/12/2009 04:25:09 PM 888 Views
Thanks for the quote .. obviously hadn't heard that one before! darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 04:31:37 PM 987 Views
Key word - "possibly" RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 04:38:46 PM 897 Views
As said, if you just compare it to Alviarin's mark, it's clear. Etzel - 29/12/2009 05:06:47 PM 862 Views

Well, it protects you of Shadowspawn, not that bad. Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:12:04 PM 883 Views
I don't think what happened to Fain or Slayer are "gifts" darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 06:26:15 PM 797 Views
Slayer calls it "gifts" in his PoV Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:37:49 PM 835 Views
I think you are stretching the reality a bit darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 06:42:10 PM 881 Views
You confuse it a bit... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:57:07 PM 943 Views
I think you've got it backwards darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 07:12:02 PM 853 Views
However... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:16:08 PM 882 Views
I wasn't arguing that point darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 08:13:25 PM 1106 Views
Some things don't have to be spelled out, if they are that clear... *NM* Etzel - 29/12/2009 08:18:05 PM 851 Views
clearly they do since people are discussing it! darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 09:37:00 PM 818 Views
Yes; it is not readily apparant that the mark was made with the TP. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:12:07 PM 909 Views
Sorry, but that is utter nonsense Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:24:54 PM 998 Views
You are incorrect; I'm actually thinking that you only skimmed certain sections! RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:38:37 PM 951 Views
Simply read the books and what the authors said... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:55:42 PM 891 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 859 Views
Ok, then we play dumb, if you like... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:14:58 PM 976 Views
Because the Dark One is not merely a super channeler. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:21:21 PM 999 Views
Well, I disagree of course... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:36:19 PM 1129 Views
You are mistaken on quite a few counts. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 04:37:51 PM 1028 Views
Actually... Etzel - 29/12/2009 05:04:54 PM 945 Views

Exactly. *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:12:30 PM 446 Views
Well... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:18:08 PM 1011 Views
Just pointing out that your comment about Lanfear and Moggy not being assassins darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 06:37:21 PM 904 Views
No... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:47:07 PM 1119 Views
Re: No... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:00:20 PM 1072 Views
Again... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:10:12 PM 838 Views
So you dismiss the actual assassinations the Forsaken have performed on-screen? RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:26:55 PM 868 Views
Again... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:47:57 PM 795 Views
I think any Forsaken is capable of doing it. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 08:05:10 PM 893 Views
Then another Forsaken, e.g. Sammael.. Etzel - 29/12/2009 08:16:50 PM 756 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 449 Views
Yeah, after TFoH! We are looking for clues before LoC, guys! *sigh* Etzel - 29/12/2009 08:31:13 PM 744 Views
Where did I say this was a clue to her doing it? darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 09:58:29 PM 975 Views
I don't say... Etzel - 30/12/2009 12:08:27 PM 1079 Views
Most of what you are talking about with Slayer is discoverd after LoC darius_sedai - 30/12/2009 02:36:18 PM 965 Views
Re: Well... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:41:29 PM 880 Views
It becomes clear... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:59:03 PM 799 Views
Basically, you think Slayer killed him. I do not. Nor do I care. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:04:20 PM 766 Views
Fair enough. *NM* Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:17:22 PM 493 Views

Fain's Myrddraal killed asmo LOL *NM* aldapelan - 29/12/2009 05:26:22 AM 508 Views
It is quite obvious that it was Mistress Laras. *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 03:35:36 PM 469 Views
Intuitively, even. *NM* Gher - 29/12/2009 06:03:13 PM 454 Views
