Re: The wording is absolutely unambiguous, but I suppose one can argue everything. RugbyPlayingAshaman Send a noteboard - 21/01/2010 06:07:09 PM
IMHO there would be no ambiguity if BS had said, in brief, what he learned from Maria.

I really don't understand why some of you argue or theorize on things with such conviction when they seem rather open-ended to me, so I'm pretty willing to play devil's advocate if that seems to be the case.

My Lanfear/Cyndane theory has been disproven. Shishka - 20/01/2010 05:12:58 PM 2859 Views
It was discussed Etzel - 20/01/2010 05:27:43 PM 1194 Views
Re: It was discussed Shishka - 20/01/2010 07:09:01 PM 978 Views
Maybe... Etzel - 20/01/2010 07:15:57 PM 917 Views
Re: Maybe... Shishka - 20/01/2010 08:53:47 PM 974 Views
Yeah, that would be a possibility! *NM* Etzel - 20/01/2010 09:01:26 PM 897 Views
That doesn't really jive with Aran'gar though darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 09:03:35 PM 912 Views
But... Etzel - 20/01/2010 09:11:47 PM 890 Views
I think it's pretty obvious that pretty much any man is going to be darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 09:41:40 PM 843 Views
The idea behind this theory is... Etzel - 21/01/2010 07:15:19 AM 1029 Views
Maybe there is a difference between male souls and female souls ... Shishka - 20/01/2010 09:35:57 PM 914 Views
Plausible darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 09:45:21 PM 1013 Views
Actually, I didn't mean to imply that my idea of female strength is related to body size ... Shishka - 20/01/2010 10:10:48 PM 892 Views
LOL ... I hear ya on that darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 10:17:02 PM 952 Views
I'm so pleased this theory is false! darius_sedai - 12/12/2010 05:00:06 PM 811 Views
people didn't like it when I proposed it kcf - 20/01/2010 05:31:18 PM 1136 Views
Thanks. Shishka - 20/01/2010 08:36:58 PM 1029 Views
I don't like the idea that she was healed by a woman Skeeve the Great - 20/01/2010 05:48:19 PM 975 Views
I agree, and it seems unlikely that a new "better" method darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 06:07:04 PM 890 Views
It's NOT due to Stilling or Healing and it's NOT due to Cyndane's weaker body... Shannow - 20/01/2010 06:46:08 PM 1017 Views
I think Moiraine's gaining strength seems a little too LotR. darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 06:55:34 PM 925 Views
I think Moraine gaining strength is VERY LotR. That's why I think RJ went with it... *NM* Shannow - 20/01/2010 06:57:39 PM 560 Views
yet he moved away from LotR very early in the series *NM* darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 06:59:05 PM 521 Views
I also like that theory Sidious - 20/01/2010 07:14:20 PM 952 Views
I think BS's error regarding Cyndane's strength can also be explained by this theory... Shannow - 20/01/2010 07:17:59 PM 917 Views
Yes perhaps Sidious - 20/01/2010 07:25:06 PM 944 Views
Cadsuane is considerably stronger than Moiraine darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 07:31:42 PM 927 Views
Nope... Shannow - 20/01/2010 07:38:55 PM 905 Views
I disagree as usual darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 07:45:29 PM 816 Views
We don't know the magnitude of what Aes Sedai consider a significant strength difference... Shannow - 20/01/2010 07:54:38 PM 898 Views
You are comparing Male and female strength here darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 08:18:45 PM 950 Views
Why do you misquote Moiraine? Shannow - 20/01/2010 08:39:55 PM 920 Views
Agreeing to disagree here ... we interpret the evidence differently and it's futile to argue. darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 08:41:08 PM 1086 Views
Cadsuane isn't too strong Sidious - 21/01/2010 04:19:41 AM 928 Views
Actually... fionwe1987 - 21/01/2010 05:57:43 AM 912 Views
Re: Actually... Sidious - 21/01/2010 12:31:53 PM 939 Views
Sorry, that was the Glossary... fionwe1987 - 21/01/2010 08:07:56 PM 827 Views
Sidious - 22/01/2010 11:05:23 AM 999 Views
So Glossary or character? fionwe1987 - 22/01/2010 10:22:15 PM 700 Views

Re: I think BS's error regarding Cyndane's strength can also be explained by this theory... Shishka - 20/01/2010 07:43:28 PM 916 Views
Agree with both your comments... Shannow - 20/01/2010 07:46:07 PM 919 Views
Re: Agree with both your comments... Shishka - 20/01/2010 08:24:16 PM 972 Views
Hmm ... I think maybe BS DID know about Cyndane being stronger than Graendal ... Shishka - 20/01/2010 09:20:31 PM 914 Views
But seriously... Etzel - 21/01/2010 12:14:16 PM 810 Views
Re: But seriously... Sidious - 21/01/2010 12:34:18 PM 988 Views
I don't think it has to be so unique... Etzel - 21/01/2010 01:13:00 PM 940 Views
Re: I don't think it has to be so unique... Sidious - 21/01/2010 04:49:42 PM 941 Views
Also would explain the question of why Moiraine left the angreal on the wagon instead of using it... Shannow - 21/01/2010 02:30:46 PM 919 Views
I think it makes more sense... Etzel - 21/01/2010 02:34:30 PM 945 Views
Lanfear would have been toast if Moiraine had the angreal, plus foreknowledge of the confrontation.. Shannow - 21/01/2010 02:38:57 PM 917 Views
In her letter to Thom Etzel - 21/01/2010 02:55:32 PM 936 Views
One other tiny thing Sareitha Sedai - 21/01/2010 03:18:03 PM 877 Views
Yes, and that is often overlooked Sidious - 21/01/2010 04:48:08 PM 824 Views
That's my interpretation, also ... Shishka - 21/01/2010 04:00:35 PM 803 Views
Nods in agreement darius_sedai - 21/01/2010 06:24:59 PM 961 Views
I think the "bubble of hope" was simply ... Shishka - 21/01/2010 07:08:44 PM 753 Views
Agreed *NM* darius_sedai - 21/01/2010 11:38:43 PM 533 Views
No, I don't think so Sidious - 21/01/2010 04:43:53 PM 997 Views
I always figured Lanfear bargained away some power to escape the Finns beetnemesis - 20/01/2010 07:37:31 PM 917 Views

Agreed... Etzel - 20/01/2010 08:36:47 PM 807 Views
Yeah ... Shishka - 20/01/2010 08:43:24 PM 953 Views
The closest I ever saw was the "Lightfriend/Purple Ajah" theory darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 08:46:20 PM 1191 Views
Yeah, the Verin revelation was cool... Etzel - 20/01/2010 08:48:53 PM 903 Views
Re: That idea has also been disproven ... callandor1000 - 21/01/2010 05:12:45 PM 887 Views
I think it may be more simple than it seems. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 21/01/2010 04:15:05 PM 1011 Views
Doesn't fit with BS's words Etzel - 21/01/2010 04:27:43 PM 838 Views
Also ... Shishka - 21/01/2010 04:32:58 PM 807 Views
I don't think BS words or Cyndane's comments really prove anything. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 21/01/2010 04:42:59 PM 947 Views
BS says that Cyndane is truly weaker. So, this theory is out. *NM* Etzel - 21/01/2010 04:46:48 PM 577 Views

Re: LOL ... I love that you of all people are going to fall back on this argument! Sidious - 22/01/2010 08:05:08 PM 994 Views
and you have zero evidence that Lanfear is considerably stronger than the others darius_sedai - 22/01/2010 11:23:11 PM 747 Views
It's also a totally abstruse explanation, though, and therefore certainy wrong. *NM* Etzel - 22/01/2010 11:55:17 AM 738 Views

Dumb question, but do transmigrated souls need to re-reach their full potential? Gher - 21/01/2010 06:19:57 PM 921 Views
It seems like they start out as powerful as they were, but I don't think it's ever been stated *NM* darius_sedai - 21/01/2010 06:44:45 PM 571 Views
