Moridin also tries to tempt Rand again by saying that the DO could heal his madness or resurrect Ilyena. Therefore I definitely think that Moridin tries to make Rand a bit more trusting here (even if this fails; though Rand doesn't attack Moridin at least).


Yes, he tried to tempt Rand to convert to the Shadow (yet again), but that's just his modis operandi. I don't think he was trying to get Rand to trust him. I really doubt that any schemes Moridin has up his sleave hinge on Rand trusting him.

Moridin states in this scene that he believes that the DO win end everything, if he wins.


Yeah, so he wouldn't care about the transmigration issue. Presumably the other Forsaken would be unhappy to know that Moridin had revealed that info, since they are under the delusion that there will be life after TG, if the DO wins.

On the other hand, he might even consider that this would harm Rand as well, because of their link.


Yeah, but he's not ready to sacrifice himself for the cause, yet. Otherwise, he wouldn't care if one of the other Forsaken harmed/killed Rand, it seems to me.

But of course, he likely wouldn't really care if Rand balefires the other Forsaken, since they are competitors.


Competitors for what, exactly? As you noted, Moridin thinks the DO's victory will end EVERYTHING, so there is nothing to compete for.

I don't think he views any of the other Chosen as competition, I think he views them as tools, just as the DO does, presumably.

However, that Rand & Co. might lose their constraints to use balefire might be good for the Shadow.


Perhaps, but I'm just not sure "BF use by the Light" outweighs "Chosen deaths", at this point in the game. Whereas, I can see how "Rand TP use" outweighs "Semirhage death", in terms of benefit to the Shadow.
Rise and fall, turn the Wheel,
'cause all life is
is really just a circle.

Why did Moridin reveal that balefire prevents transmigration? Shishka - 01/02/2010 03:41:30 PM 1593 Views

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 658 Views
No, I mean, #2 means "shit". HAHAHAHA!!! *NM* callandor1000 - 04/02/2010 10:25:45 PM 412 Views

Moridin probably just wanted the access key to prevent the Cleansing Etzel - 02/02/2010 10:26:11 AM 7144 Views
no reason to take the tool that allowed Rand to Cleanse saidin? darius_sedai - 02/02/2010 01:34:59 PM 722 Views
We don't even know if SH knew about the access key in the box Etzel - 02/02/2010 02:09:32 PM 654 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 668 Views
If Elza had the order to take the access key, she would have taken it Etzel - 02/02/2010 02:29:08 PM 683 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 1127 Views
Again: there wasn't a Forsaken near the opened box. *NM* Etzel - 02/02/2010 04:22:32 PM 624 Views
So SH is the idiot? Okay! darius_sedai - 02/02/2010 04:59:36 PM 743 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 607 Views
Elza certainly knows what it is darius_sedai - 05/02/2010 06:40:46 PM 644 Views

You are actually supporting my point darius_sedai - 05/02/2010 06:39:32 PM 708 Views
Because Moridin sees it for what it is: a tool. Lord Haart - 05/02/2010 07:56:15 PM 904 Views
It's a mix, IMO Etzel - 01/02/2010 05:00:07 PM 761 Views
