- Rand was a fair distance from Natrin's Barrow. And I just don't see Graendal weaving a massive inverted ward around the place, as that would take more of the power than she has. I DEFINITELY don't see her strolling around the perimeter placing wards, she's far to decadent for that. Also, the gateway which Rand opened was NOT in sight of Graendal's palace.
- Compulsion that disappears on delving has never been seen or heard of in the series. It's pure speculation at best.
- Ramshalan had no idea what Rand intended. At best, he thought Rand was dropping him off around the place to secure support for the throne: "It is the first of many places I will send you... seek those who rule the keep. See if they are willing to support me." Rand acknowledges that Graendal will see through this, but will probably believe part of it at least. There's simply nothing prior to send Ramshalan off that indicates Rand's plan to use the CK + BF.
- If Graendal DID sense the gateway opening, she would have just left instantly. She's the kind of person that either feels safe or unsafe; what was to stop Rand from instantly Balefiring the place, or entering it himself with a bunch of AS?

one of the reasons I'm at a loss with her death ... along with the lead-up being clumsy *NM*

I am now split with a 80% belief it's Graendal and 20% that it's Moghedien *NM*

Egwene was faintly forkrooted, not heavily.

It was heavy enough to nullify her ability almost completely by TGS

The lead up was clumsy because her death scene was rather forced.
