What Datakim said... Etzel Send a noteboard - 12/01/2010 08:42:45 PM
People seem to forget this.


There was the following Q&A:

Matt: "There was some confusion about Rand and the Dark One’s permission, so for clarification’s sake, did Rand have the Dark One’s permission to use the True Power?"
Brandon: "I have not answered that. If anyone says that I have, I have not. What I have said specifically is, this is recording [in other words, Matt has audio documentation of this - Terez]: generally one must have the Dark One’s permission to use the True Power. Semirhage believed that the Dark One had betrayed her by letting Rand use it. It is good that you have asked this so I can make sure on the record that is the answer I have given." [emphasis mine]

The exception to the general rule would be that Rand basically used Moridin's permission via the link.

Did Cadsuane actually get any secrets from Semirhage during her breakdown? Shannow - 12/01/2010 01:38:04 PM 1535 Views
I don't think Cadsuane learned anything from Semirhage... Etzel - 12/01/2010 02:09:26 PM 973 Views
Of course it was necessary to the plot. It's why Shaitan sacrificed Semirhage. *NM* Tom - 12/01/2010 04:28:10 PM 372 Views
Doubt that Rand's TP use was intended Etzel - 12/01/2010 04:44:12 PM 812 Views
It seems very reasonable that the DO would give Rand access to the TP beetnemesis - 12/01/2010 05:22:17 PM 817 Views
i thought BSand said that the DO wasn't aware ... am I making that up? *NM* darius_sedai - 12/01/2010 05:24:26 PM 353 Views
Rand was captured and helpless... Etzel - 12/01/2010 05:41:20 PM 840 Views
That argument is wrong... fionwe1987 - 12/01/2010 10:48:57 PM 830 Views

A rescue attempt at SG seems pretty difficult, though. And Min would be dead. Etzel - 13/01/2010 08:09:33 AM 767 Views
But Avi, Elayne and Alanna would be alive... fionwe1987 - 13/01/2010 05:53:18 PM 857 Views
Well... Etzel - 13/01/2010 06:01:35 PM 801 Views
Re: That argument is wrong... Datakim - 13/01/2010 11:02:05 AM 813 Views
I doubt... Etzel - 13/01/2010 08:05:24 AM 713 Views
IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO USE THE TRUE POWER WITHOUT SHAI'TAN'S CONSENT. Tom - 12/01/2010 08:20:30 PM 836 Views
Maybe and maybe not Datakim - 12/01/2010 08:31:31 PM 737 Views

Funny when reading that chapter wheelwright - 13/01/2010 07:08:29 PM 876 Views
We will see. The revelation what was really going on will be very interesting in any case! *NM* Etzel - 14/01/2010 11:11:15 AM 352 Views
I predict we'll learn all about this in Graendal's ToM POV *NM* darius_sedai - 14/01/2010 06:16:21 PM 351 Views
I rather think we will learn this from Moridin. *NM* Etzel - 14/01/2010 06:29:32 PM 359 Views
you are likely correct *NM* darius_sedai - 14/01/2010 06:39:42 PM 390 Views

But would the Shadow want her to do what Moghidien and Asmodean did? Ryan - 12/01/2010 04:44:42 PM 734 Views
IMO: Yes. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 12/01/2010 03:43:16 PM 844 Views
I think... Etzel - 12/01/2010 04:52:00 PM 822 Views
I have doubts about this. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 12/01/2010 05:20:27 PM 884 Views
But why would the Shadow tell Cadsuane & Co.? Etzel - 12/01/2010 05:50:19 PM 817 Views
Because Semirhage was broken and may have revealed it to them under interrogation/spanking. *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 12/01/2010 06:53:35 PM 358 Views
Hmm, I doubt that Semirhage knew this, since she was concentrated on the Seanchan & Rand. Etzel - 12/01/2010 07:12:45 PM 750 Views
I agree that it's much more likely that Sulin told them about Tam *NM* darius_sedai - 12/01/2010 07:30:32 PM 362 Views
Re: IMO: Yes. ajah - 17/01/2010 07:07:12 AM 740 Views
I don't think so, but that doesn't mean it was "for nothing". Tom - 12/01/2010 04:26:57 PM 824 Views
Just one Sidious - 12/01/2010 05:00:26 PM 796 Views
But already before her "breaking". *NM* Etzel - 12/01/2010 05:02:24 PM 345 Views
Yes Sidious - 12/01/2010 05:16:03 PM 756 Views
