should definitely help him understand that he needs to make INFORMED decisions, not rash ones. He can't be ruled by emotion. He should especially know that rumours are often merely just sensationalised stories, or downright false. Yes, he has been told plenty of false things, but I can't believe he gets angry at Siuan for "misleading" Elayne and then fails to see that Elaida is doing the same to him (actually, he DOES see it at times, but fails to act on it).

Plus, for someone who claims to love Egwene, he has never really shown it to be love over lust. He sides against her with Elaida, considers her to be a child unable to make her own decisions, and doesn't believe her about Rand (despite her having pretty much known the exact situation).

In summation: any sense of duty that exists without question or clear justification is a bloody annoying trait for a character to have.
The first rule of being a ninja is "do no harm". Unless you intend to do harm, then do lots of harm.

Perhaps the key is that Gawyn is an even more simplistic thinker than Galad. Lord Haart - 06/02/2010 06:20:06 AM 1357 Views
Again, what? When? Fanatic-Templar - 06/02/2010 08:08:47 AM 1363 Views

Add Nynaeve and Egwene to the fight, that's something worth seeing then. Lord Haart - 05/02/2010 05:20:53 AM 1517 Views

That's not what RJ said. He said Nynaeve would be a little hard pressed Skeeve the Great - 05/02/2010 10:18:42 PM 1218 Views
she might be a little hard pressed to pass a test she should pass without thought! darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 05:56:38 PM 1117 Views
Moiraine was hard pressed to pass, and she practiced for ages and is the #1 Battle AS. Lord Haart - 06/02/2010 08:27:26 PM 1335 Views

of course it does darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 05:48:41 PM 1411 Views
That's not how it happens in New Spring. Fanatic-Templar - 06/02/2010 07:00:52 PM 1283 Views
that's because Moiraine trained and is relatively skilled (for AS) darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 07:34:05 PM 1411 Views
That's nonsensical. Fanatic-Templar - 06/02/2010 09:02:13 PM 1411 Views

Yup, plus those were complex weaves that may have required multiple flows. Lord Haart - 06/02/2010 08:30:52 PM 1358 Views
there is nothing to say that multiple weaves are involved. darius_sedai - 06/02/2010 09:16:29 PM 1290 Views
