It's only mentioned in passing, but Rand says that he had to do a bunch of research before he figured out where Graendal was.
There is no mention of "a bunch of research" ... not to mention all this happened in a couple of days, he learns of NB from Kerb on May 18th and BF's the place on the 21st. And in the meantime he goes to meet the Seanchan.

"Well known" and "largely forgotten" are about as opposite as you can get!

Or it could be due to two different authors writing the story and nothing else. *NM*

Seems absolutely obvious to me - she was tricking Sammael.

Fine, then what if she changed location after Sammael was compromised?

Go re-read it... I said there are discrepancies between what Sammael said and what Rand said

Graendal is Toast with a capital T. Not possibly dead, not likely dead, 100% gone.

The discrepancies are due to the series being over 12 books long...

I'm with you on her probably being dead only because it's so close to the end *NM*

Yes; but those pieces of evidence basically separate the 2 schools of thought on her "death scene" *NM*
