Re: Obviously #2 Shishka Send a noteboard - 01/02/2010 05:47:31 PM
I'm sure no one will agree, but Semi and Graendal being Balefired was a direct result of this revelation.


I don't think there is any question that they were a direct result - Rand thought about needing to BF the Forsaken several times, after Moridin made the revelation.

The question is whether the Shadow intended those results.

I feel that Moridin engineered both those events (with Graendal), so that Rand would severely destabilize the Pattern while attempting (and sometimes succeeding) to kill the Forsaken.


See my comments to RPA & Etzel. It's hard for me to see how Moridin & the DO would consider the BF death of any of the Chosen as a net gain, in terms of the damage caused to the Pattern. Presumably, the chaos each Chosen causes in the Pattern is much greater than his/her individual death by BF would cause.

Of course, in the Graendal case, it wasn't just one death, but, what, hundreds? But, could the Shadow have predicted that Rand/LTT would ever use BF so massively?

In Semirhage's case, the BF effect on the Pattern was negligible, I would imagine. Assuming she was set up, the purpose was to tempt Rand with the TP, not to see Semirhage balefired, I think.

Yep, I'm not really 100% on most things in the series unless there is no doubt. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 02/02/2010 08:03:31 PM 660 Views

Moridin probably just wanted the access key to prevent the Cleansing Etzel - 02/02/2010 10:26:11 AM 7147 Views
no reason to take the tool that allowed Rand to Cleanse saidin? darius_sedai - 02/02/2010 01:34:59 PM 725 Views
We don't even know if SH knew about the access key in the box Etzel - 02/02/2010 02:09:32 PM 657 Views
So the DO's Hand doesn't know about the AK? And we have a quote with Elza's orders where? darius_sedai - 02/02/2010 02:14:58 PM 669 Views
If Elza had the order to take the access key, she would have taken it Etzel - 02/02/2010 02:29:08 PM 685 Views
As I've said a million times... I'm on the fence with this theory darius_sedai - 02/02/2010 03:52:31 PM 1130 Views
Again: there wasn't a Forsaken near the opened box. *NM* Etzel - 02/02/2010 04:22:32 PM 626 Views
So SH is the idiot? Okay! darius_sedai - 02/02/2010 04:59:36 PM 744 Views
He might not know about the access key in the box or have other priorities. *NM* Etzel - 02/02/2010 07:20:36 PM 609 Views
Elza certainly knows what it is darius_sedai - 05/02/2010 06:40:46 PM 647 Views

You are actually supporting my point darius_sedai - 05/02/2010 06:39:32 PM 710 Views
Because Moridin sees it for what it is: a tool. Lord Haart - 05/02/2010 07:56:15 PM 904 Views
