I think it's possible that Slayer could have killed Asmo darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 28/12/2009 04:35:57 PM
Obviously Asmo was caught by surprise so just about anyone could have done the deed, but that doesn't explain:

1. Why Slayer overtly talked about killing 2 AS in the Stone and how much pleasure but didn't mention killing one of the Forsaken!

2. How Slayer found him in the first place. The killing seemed purely opportunistic, thus not particularly assassinish.

3. How Asmodean recognized Slayer. Do you think he had a meet and greet with the Forsaken at some point... even if he did it's unlikely that Asmodean or any of the Forsaken would have been particularly impressed with what amounts to a tool in their eyes. Hell Asmo may have even reacted by trying to order him around just like all the others did with Shaidar Haran.

All in all he doesn't jump out to me as an "obvious" choice as RJ seemed to think the killer should be to us.

Nope, Myrddraal have been nothing but cannon fodder since book four *NM* Lordling - 28/12/2009 03:01:01 PM 492 Views
except, of course, for Shaidar Haran *NM* darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 03:12:17 PM 485 Views
But what was the purpose then? Etzel - 28/12/2009 03:43:01 PM 883 Views
To show the relationship between Fain and DO Bonden - 28/12/2009 03:52:59 PM 840 Views
Maybe... Etzel - 28/12/2009 04:02:42 PM 916 Views

The explanations Etzel - 28/12/2009 05:06:02 PM 1078 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 1003 Views
Your reaction would be similar to BS's then Etzel - 28/12/2009 05:57:44 PM 1951 Views
I don't really have a strong opinion on which suspect did it darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 06:03:07 PM 818 Views
Well... Etzel - 28/12/2009 06:42:16 PM 866 Views
Indeed *NM* darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 06:55:52 PM 437 Views

The case for Graendal was already weak before TGS... Etzel - 28/12/2009 08:13:07 PM 854 Views
Re: The case for Graendal was already weak before TGS... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 28/12/2009 10:19:24 PM 922 Views
The reason is... Etzel - 29/12/2009 11:58:24 AM 893 Views
The reasoning is very weak. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 03:34:19 PM 895 Views
If you mean... Etzel - 29/12/2009 04:01:25 PM 974 Views
A few points darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 04:14:12 PM 818 Views
You are wrong... Etzel - 29/12/2009 04:25:09 PM 818 Views
Thanks for the quote .. obviously hadn't heard that one before! darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 04:31:37 PM 913 Views
Key word - "possibly" RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 04:38:46 PM 820 Views
As said, if you just compare it to Alviarin's mark, it's clear. Etzel - 29/12/2009 05:06:47 PM 784 Views
Re: As said, if you just compare it to Alviarin's mark, it's clear. darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 06:08:09 PM 722 Views
Well, it protects you of Shadowspawn, not that bad. Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:12:04 PM 795 Views
I don't think what happened to Fain or Slayer are "gifts" darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 06:26:15 PM 726 Views
Slayer calls it "gifts" in his PoV Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:37:49 PM 766 Views
I think you are stretching the reality a bit darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 06:42:10 PM 806 Views
You confuse it a bit... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:57:07 PM 867 Views
I think you've got it backwards darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 07:12:02 PM 786 Views
However... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:16:08 PM 805 Views
I wasn't arguing that point darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 08:13:25 PM 1037 Views
Some things don't have to be spelled out, if they are that clear... *NM* Etzel - 29/12/2009 08:18:05 PM 760 Views
clearly they do since people are discussing it! darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 09:37:00 PM 747 Views
Yes; it is not readily apparant that the mark was made with the TP. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:12:07 PM 804 Views
Sorry, but that is utter nonsense Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:24:54 PM 924 Views
You are incorrect; I'm actually thinking that you only skimmed certain sections! RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:38:37 PM 863 Views
Simply read the books and what the authors said... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:55:42 PM 806 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 780 Views
Ok, then we play dumb, if you like... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:14:58 PM 900 Views
Because the Dark One is not merely a super channeler. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:21:21 PM 914 Views
Well, I disagree of course... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:36:19 PM 1026 Views
You are mistaken on quite a few counts. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 04:37:51 PM 959 Views
Actually... Etzel - 29/12/2009 05:04:54 PM 863 Views
BWB says... darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 05:48:40 PM 1107 Views
Exactly. *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:12:30 PM 414 Views
Well... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:18:08 PM 917 Views
Just pointing out that your comment about Lanfear and Moggy not being assassins darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 06:37:21 PM 811 Views
No... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:47:07 PM 1030 Views
Re: No... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:00:20 PM 986 Views
Again... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:10:12 PM 751 Views
So you dismiss the actual assassinations the Forsaken have performed on-screen? RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:26:55 PM 773 Views
Again... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:47:57 PM 719 Views
I think any Forsaken is capable of doing it. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 08:05:10 PM 817 Views
Then another Forsaken, e.g. Sammael.. Etzel - 29/12/2009 08:16:50 PM 683 Views
Re: Then another Forsaken, e.g. Sammael.. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 09:21:23 PM 785 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 413 Views
Yeah, after TFoH! We are looking for clues before LoC, guys! *sigh* Etzel - 29/12/2009 08:31:13 PM 663 Views
Where did I say this was a clue to her doing it? darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 09:58:29 PM 896 Views
I don't say... Etzel - 30/12/2009 12:08:27 PM 984 Views
Most of what you are talking about with Slayer is discoverd after LoC darius_sedai - 30/12/2009 02:36:18 PM 884 Views
Re: Well... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:41:29 PM 793 Views
It becomes clear... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:59:03 PM 731 Views
Basically, you think Slayer killed him. I do not. Nor do I care. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:04:20 PM 695 Views
Fair enough. *NM* Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:17:22 PM 466 Views

It's rather the TP, which makes Slayer inhuman... Etzel - 28/12/2009 08:21:20 PM 756 Views
makes you wonder darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 09:45:08 PM 843 Views

Fain's Myrddraal killed asmo LOL *NM* aldapelan - 29/12/2009 05:26:22 AM 470 Views
It is quite obvious that it was Mistress Laras. *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 03:35:36 PM 439 Views
Intuitively, even. *NM* Gher - 29/12/2009 06:03:13 PM 430 Views
