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 1639 Views
I don't think Cadsuane learned anything from Semirhage... Etzel - 12/01/2010 02:09:26 PM 1080 Views
Of course it was necessary to the plot. It's why Shaitan sacrificed Semirhage. *NM* Tom - 12/01/2010 04:28:10 PM 431 Views
Doubt that Rand's TP use was intended Etzel - 12/01/2010 04:44:12 PM 929 Views
It seems very reasonable that the DO would give Rand access to the TP beetnemesis - 12/01/2010 05:22:17 PM 932 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 412 Views
Rand was captured and helpless... Etzel - 12/01/2010 05:41:20 PM 1021 Views
That argument is wrong... fionwe1987 - 12/01/2010 10:48:57 PM 932 Views

A rescue attempt at SG seems pretty difficult, though. And Min would be dead. Etzel - 13/01/2010 08:09:33 AM 882 Views
But Avi, Elayne and Alanna would be alive... fionwe1987 - 13/01/2010 05:53:18 PM 977 Views
Well... Etzel - 13/01/2010 06:01:35 PM 948 Views
Re: That argument is wrong... Datakim - 13/01/2010 11:02:05 AM 929 Views
I doubt... Etzel - 13/01/2010 08:05:24 AM 827 Views
IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO USE THE TRUE POWER WITHOUT SHAI'TAN'S CONSENT. Tom - 12/01/2010 08:20:30 PM 935 Views
Maybe and maybe not Datakim - 12/01/2010 08:31:31 PM 828 Views

Funny when reading that chapter wheelwright - 13/01/2010 07:08:29 PM 996 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 418 Views
I predict we'll learn all about this in Graendal's ToM POV *NM* darius_sedai - 14/01/2010 06:16:21 PM 406 Views
I rather think we will learn this from Moridin. *NM* Etzel - 14/01/2010 06:29:32 PM 415 Views
you are likely correct *NM* darius_sedai - 14/01/2010 06:39:42 PM 448 Views

But would the Shadow want her to do what Moghidien and Asmodean did? Ryan - 12/01/2010 04:44:42 PM 839 Views
IMO: Yes. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 12/01/2010 03:43:16 PM 953 Views
I think... Etzel - 12/01/2010 04:52:00 PM 952 Views
I have doubts about this. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 12/01/2010 05:20:27 PM 988 Views
But why would the Shadow tell Cadsuane & Co.? Etzel - 12/01/2010 05:50:19 PM 934 Views
Because Semirhage was broken and may have revealed it to them under interrogation/spanking. *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 12/01/2010 06:53:35 PM 420 Views
Hmm, I doubt that Semirhage knew this, since she was concentrated on the Seanchan & Rand. Etzel - 12/01/2010 07:12:45 PM 856 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 430 Views
Re: IMO: Yes. ajah - 17/01/2010 07:07:12 AM 874 Views
I don't think so, but that doesn't mean it was "for nothing". Tom - 12/01/2010 04:26:57 PM 954 Views
Just one Sidious - 12/01/2010 05:00:26 PM 901 Views
But already before her "breaking". *NM* Etzel - 12/01/2010 05:02:24 PM 401 Views
Yes Sidious - 12/01/2010 05:16:03 PM 846 Views
