Re: Oh, I agree ... found a few tidbits ... EDIT darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 19/01/2010 06:55:22 PM
For example, for me, the restriction on Travelling doesn't make sense at all. I mean "know the place you are Travelling FROM, not the place where you are Travelling TO". That's weird, isn't it?


That one doesn't bother me too much. Skimming requires that you know where you are Travelling TO (not FROM), so both combinations are covered. I'm OK with that.

For me, the weirdest thing that's happened in the series so far is when Moggy ripped Birgitte from TAR and essentially created a new body/life for her (with Elayne's help). I'd have never guessed that was possible, not in a million years.


That one is very strange IMO too ... wonder if RJ ever explained that or if we got a RAFO...

East of the Sun Con, Stockholm, Sweden June 1995 - Karl-Johan Norén reporting


When Moghedien ripped out Birgitte from Tel'aran'rhiod she "short-circuited" the Pattern, by bringing in an adult "in the flesh" instead of letting Birgitte join Gaidal Cain the "normal" way. He said also that Gaidal Cain may not have any role to play in Tarmon Gai'don.

It didn't when Romanda retook her Oaths in TGS darius_sedai - 18/01/2010 07:13:20 PM 859 Views
Hmmm ... Shishka - 18/01/2010 07:24:51 PM 1028 Views

The point I was trying to make was ... Shishka - 18/01/2010 08:05:16 PM 839 Views
Now I get it ... seems needlessly complex for the Oath Rod though darius_sedai - 18/01/2010 08:21:35 PM 828 Views
Yes, this is what I was thinking *NM* PhoenixReborn - 18/01/2010 08:29:20 PM 410 Views
What you suggested is pretty much what I've always thought ... Shishka - 18/01/2010 08:39:30 PM 846 Views
yup darius_sedai - 18/01/2010 09:02:04 PM 735 Views
I'm with you, though ... Shishka - 18/01/2010 09:27:59 PM 1004 Views
The closest evidence we have is a Stilled/Burned out woman darius_sedai - 18/01/2010 09:49:41 PM 847 Views

I think it more like aging them faster... PhoenixReborn - 18/01/2010 08:24:56 PM 937 Views
and given how things in the AoL works this seems far more likely darius_sedai - 18/01/2010 08:32:52 PM 901 Views

The Dark Ones Mark possibly could black the oath rod? *NM* Kieran - 20/01/2010 01:28:08 AM 423 Views
No, that can't be it, because when AS become Black Ajah ... Shishka - 20/01/2010 02:53:21 PM 820 Views
But Alviarin's mark is different. Perhaps the mark of a FS is too *NM* darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 04:21:16 PM 383 Views
Good point. I sort of misinterpreted what Kieran was suggesting. *NM* Shishka - 20/01/2010 07:19:02 PM 402 Views
Re: Good point. I sort of misinterpreted what Kieran was suggesting. Kieran - 22/01/2010 01:52:51 AM 1012 Views
actually it's different darius_sedai - 22/01/2010 07:32:18 AM 936 Views
actually I think it's the same... Kieran - 23/01/2010 01:49:19 AM 626 Views
Nup. Unlike the FS, her mark will not allow her to order Darkspawn (plus more). *NM* Lord Haart - 23/01/2010 11:50:36 AM 426 Views

One point... fionwe1987 - 18/01/2010 06:12:26 PM 1025 Views
Good point ... Shishka - 18/01/2010 06:21:22 PM 810 Views

Re: Mesaana and defeating the Oath Rod randfandom - 18/01/2010 09:43:34 PM 978 Views
I'm thinking the point of the thread is to discuss how to beat the Oath Rod, not Mesaana's disguise darius_sedai - 18/01/2010 09:59:18 PM 808 Views
Right, and also ... Shishka - 18/01/2010 10:17:11 PM 832 Views
Except that the best way to 'defeat' the Oath rod is - not to take the Oaths at all Lord Haart - 19/01/2010 03:18:43 AM 739 Views
IMHO... Great Lord of Chaos - 19/01/2010 03:41:10 AM 1023 Views
Another interesting possibility Skeeve the Great - 19/01/2010 05:08:42 PM 825 Views
I'd say it was highly unlikely that the Binder/Oath Rod works that way. *NM* Shishka - 19/01/2010 06:06:49 PM 352 Views
We've seen pretty weird stuff happens before Skeeve the Great - 19/01/2010 06:30:12 PM 899 Views

Heh, I had just dug up that quote myself, before I saw your edit ... Shishka - 19/01/2010 07:17:19 PM 860 Views
I agree, it seems as if Moghedien just effectively transmigrated Birgitte darius_sedai - 19/01/2010 10:00:45 PM 935 Views
she could just be posing as a non-channeler. badassashaman - 19/01/2010 05:52:01 PM 809 Views
