One point darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 14/01/2010 09:20:09 PM

I'm confused at your confusion.

She looked up at Rand, her eyes red, looking dazed—as if something had hit her soundly on the head. However, when she saw him kneeling, she smiled. "And so you finally come to your
destiny, Rand al'Thor. You will face the Great Lord. And you will lose."

The dazed look clearly implies that her compulsion was removed. Her later horror means nothing. It wasn't on behalf of Rand or anything.


Reading this quote it's odd that Elza still holds to her "you will face the Great Lord and lose" mentality ... that epiphany was due to the compulsion in the first place so with it gone why still hold to it?

Elza's Compulsion Sidious - 14/01/2010 08:41:04 PM 1973 Views
I think Graendal was involved on some level in this part of the story darius_sedai - 14/01/2010 09:12:05 PM 914 Views
I disagree Etzel - 14/01/2010 09:27:27 PM 769 Views
except work with Semirhage! darius_sedai - 14/01/2010 09:34:37 PM 699 Views
Well... Etzel - 14/01/2010 09:43:40 PM 776 Views
SH can't channel thus can't teach Elza anything *NM* darius_sedai - 14/01/2010 10:20:19 PM 275 Views
Yeah, but according to BS, he apparently could "give her the knowledge". *shrug* *NM* Etzel - 15/01/2010 07:16:22 AM 250 Views
that's your interpretation of the quote darius_sedai - 15/01/2010 05:58:30 PM 601 Views
This and the others quotes suggest that only SH and Elza were involved *NM* Etzel - 16/01/2010 09:51:24 AM 225 Views
As I said that's certainly one of of interpreting the quotes darius_sedai - 16/01/2010 03:46:55 PM 543 Views
The question is... Etzel - 16/01/2010 03:59:24 PM 556 Views
Re: The question is... darius_sedai - 16/01/2010 04:02:55 PM 546 Views
Yeah, as I said elsewhere, would be a nice question for BS, if there was another Forsaken. *NM* Etzel - 16/01/2010 04:08:05 PM 584 Views
I bet you anything he'd giva a big fat RAFO to that darius_sedai - 16/01/2010 04:08:58 PM 546 Views
BS spoke quite openly about this scene, though Etzel - 16/01/2010 04:16:09 PM 570 Views
always worth a try, but wasn't he asked to be less open recently? darius_sedai - 16/01/2010 04:31:54 PM 543 Views
Shaidar Haran can't channel. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/01/2010 09:34:51 PM 901 Views
I know... Etzel - 14/01/2010 09:45:15 PM 759 Views
I agree with you, for a related but slightly different reason ... Shishka - 14/01/2010 09:58:28 PM 840 Views
That doesn't prove anything... fionwe1987 - 14/01/2010 10:07:46 PM 788 Views
It proves enough for me ... Shishka - 14/01/2010 10:26:28 PM 673 Views
Re: That doesn't prove anything... Sidious - 15/01/2010 11:03:05 AM 511 Views
not really darius_sedai - 15/01/2010 05:29:25 PM 531 Views
I don't understand your theory Sidious - 16/01/2010 05:08:03 PM 524 Views
It's very simple darius_sedai - 16/01/2010 06:17:36 PM 515 Views
So in other words Sidious - 17/01/2010 06:31:58 PM 631 Views
no I'd continue to insist that something disproved was correct darius_sedai - 17/01/2010 06:43:41 PM 532 Views
Re: no I'd continue to insist that something disproved was correct Sidious - 18/01/2010 04:48:33 AM 559 Views
I'm talking about implanting knowledge into someone elses head darius_sedai - 18/01/2010 05:37:32 AM 561 Views
Here's Brandon's one answer Sidious - 18/01/2010 05:20:20 PM 558 Views
But... fionwe1987 - 18/01/2010 05:48:54 PM 540 Views
Exactly my point darius_sedai - 18/01/2010 06:24:25 PM 575 Views
But by this logic... Etzel - 18/01/2010 06:50:43 PM 516 Views
Yes... fionwe1987 - 18/01/2010 07:00:40 PM 575 Views
While you are right... Etzel - 18/01/2010 08:44:19 PM 560 Views
as we've discussed in another thread darius_sedai - 18/01/2010 09:08:56 PM 940 Views
I mean... Etzel - 19/01/2010 02:21:39 PM 560 Views
Weren't they specifically called Weaves that haven't been seen since the AoL? darius_sedai - 19/01/2010 05:26:38 PM 590 Views
"Elza had been given knowledge of several rarely known weaves" is the quote. Etzel - 19/01/2010 06:14:22 PM 518 Views
Well if they were secret Ajah weaves someone would have recognized them *NM* darius_sedai - 19/01/2010 06:21:19 PM 247 Views
Maybe secret BA weaves... Etzel - 19/01/2010 06:37:42 PM 763 Views
Possible since she was the only BA in the area darius_sedai - 19/01/2010 06:40:38 PM 797 Views
See, I think there's reason for her presence to be kept secret... fionwe1987 - 18/01/2010 09:10:43 PM 602 Views
I have a hard time... Etzel - 19/01/2010 02:17:52 PM 615 Views
I agree with you Sidious - 19/01/2010 04:45:59 PM 539 Views
and you may very well be correct darius_sedai - 19/01/2010 05:39:02 PM 752 Views
Yet Rand/LTT tells us only a few chapters later darius_sedai - 14/01/2010 10:27:57 PM 620 Views
Anything is possible ... Shishka - 14/01/2010 10:54:46 PM 633 Views
who knows darius_sedai - 14/01/2010 11:21:43 PM 600 Views
It's not all that convoluted, though ... Shishka - 15/01/2010 03:26:01 PM 504 Views
Cyndane/Moggy/Graendal it all amounts to the same in the end darius_sedai - 15/01/2010 05:57:10 PM 685 Views
Re: Cyndane/Moggy/Graendal it all amounts to the same in the end Shishka - 15/01/2010 06:25:32 PM 568 Views
Re: Cyndane/Moggy/Graendal it all amounts to the same in the end darius_sedai - 15/01/2010 06:44:26 PM 535 Views
Good point! Etzel - 15/01/2010 07:19:00 AM 617 Views
Re: Good point! Shishka - 15/01/2010 05:30:12 PM 511 Views
I agree Etzel - 16/01/2010 09:50:09 AM 505 Views
what doesn't make sense about this to me darius_sedai - 15/01/2010 06:04:45 PM 581 Views
Re: what doesn't make sense about this to me Shishka - 15/01/2010 06:29:59 PM 574 Views
this makes my head hurt ... or maybe all that red wine I drank last night is doing that darius_sedai - 15/01/2010 07:04:23 PM 557 Views
damn double posting darius_sedai - 15/01/2010 07:04:56 PM 521 Views
As it is often the case... Etzel - 16/01/2010 09:30:56 AM 617 Views
go re-read my statements and quit putting words in my mouth please. darius_sedai - 16/01/2010 03:59:52 PM 570 Views
Well... Etzel - 16/01/2010 04:14:28 PM 465 Views
as I said it's also possible that SH has new abilities darius_sedai - 16/01/2010 04:33:30 PM 507 Views
Re: I think Graendal was involved on some level in this part of the story RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/01/2010 09:30:53 PM 613 Views
Uhhh? fionwe1987 - 14/01/2010 09:13:13 PM 756 Views
One point darius_sedai - 14/01/2010 09:20:09 PM 707 Views
Re: One point Oberonus - 14/01/2010 09:32:00 PM 631 Views
Elza truly believes that... fionwe1987 - 14/01/2010 09:38:35 PM 623 Views
Elza "found a reason to follow the Compulsion" darius_sedai - 14/01/2010 11:23:33 PM 672 Views
So, it came from her, and would not go when the Compulsion was removed. Cannoli - 15/01/2010 05:56:32 AM 601 Views
fair enough darius_sedai - 16/01/2010 04:34:05 PM 661 Views
Not quite rAndy aL - 14/01/2010 09:38:45 PM 645 Views
But that could mean that they were to start the LB between Rand and the Great Lord immediately *NM* Voscaia Sedai - 16/01/2010 01:04:32 PM 243 Views
