This thought is so grotesque... Etzel Send a noteboard - 03/02/2010 07:20:20 PM
You die before you can write the scene but you are quite explicit in your notes and outline that Rand thinks he kills a Forsaken earlier, but this Forsaken appears again in the second act to taunt him, just as Ishamael did, but more effectively since it is closer to Tarmon Gaidon.


That we might really find out in ToM or AMoL that Graendal sneaked away before Rand balefired the palace. On a re-read of this scene TGS we would then laugh about Rand's pretentious & ridiculous explanation how to outsmart someone like Graendal, because - as we know now - it isn't possible at all and Rand is just an idiot to try it.

Yeah, and this is exactly what we see when Rand kills Graendal with a force of light. *NM* Etzel - 03/02/2010 09:29:08 PM 248 Views
When Rand thinks that he kills.... Jeordam - 03/02/2010 09:34:41 PM 626 Views
Well, then we agree, I also think Graendal is definitely dead! *NM* Etzel - 04/02/2010 10:06:31 AM 268 Views
