Not really. everynametaken Send a noteboard - 15/02/2010 03:29:39 AM
You'd think Maria would have caught some of these errors.


Maria is one person and to expect her to catch every little thing over a dozen books and point them out to a new author is unreasonable. I personally find your trying to form a cohesive theory about why she is not dead with your examples of contradictions a huge stretch.
But wine was the great assassin of both tradition and propriety...

Additional clues that something doesn't quite add up in Graendal's death darius_sedai - 13/02/2010 03:34:43 PM 1746 Views
I brought all this up before.. fionwe1987 - 13/02/2010 04:52:39 PM 660 Views
Glad it's been brought up before darius_sedai - 13/02/2010 04:57:11 PM 598 Views
Assuming it's not her hideout . . . Palatine - 13/02/2010 05:47:22 PM 625 Views
I don't see problems Skeeve the Great - 13/02/2010 06:03:41 PM 658 Views
Also, Rand had to do some heavy research with the head librarian beetnemesis - 13/02/2010 07:15:27 PM 608 Views
no, Rand just sent a few scouts darius_sedai - 13/02/2010 11:56:33 PM 534 Views
"Well known" and "largely forgotten" are about as opposite as you can get! darius_sedai - 13/02/2010 11:44:39 PM 616 Views
I don't think so. Skeeve the Great - 14/02/2010 04:28:04 PM 570 Views
so now she's been there for the last 50 years? darius_sedai - 14/02/2010 05:41:43 PM 471 Views
Re: so now she's been there for the last 50 years? Skeeve the Great - 14/02/2010 06:29:32 PM 523 Views
you mean the scouts he sent? darius_sedai - 14/02/2010 06:52:59 PM 545 Views
He used scouts to find the place? Skeeve the Great - 14/02/2010 07:07:16 PM 502 Views
probably, but that doesn't make a difference. darius_sedai - 14/02/2010 08:33:35 PM 508 Views
Re: probably, but that doesn't make a difference. Lord Haart - 15/02/2010 08:10:47 AM 537 Views
I agree - those are basically antonyms RugbyPlayingAshaman - 16/02/2010 06:35:31 PM 530 Views
Like rotary phones, Milli Vanilli and the Macarena? JasonD - 23/02/2010 12:22:47 AM 458 Views
More... Kieran - 13/02/2010 07:37:45 PM 580 Views
Or it could be due to two different authors writing the story and nothing else. *NM* everynametaken - 14/02/2010 12:22:27 AM 250 Views
seems like pretty big differences darius_sedai - 14/02/2010 12:26:42 AM 498 Views
Not really. everynametaken - 15/02/2010 03:29:39 AM 479 Views
it's Maria's job to find these things darius_sedai - 15/02/2010 04:43:33 AM 499 Views
Seems absolutely obvious to me - she was tricking Sammael. Lord Haart - 14/02/2010 03:45:23 AM 675 Views
Re: Seems absolutely obvious to me - she was tricking Sammael. darius_sedai - 14/02/2010 01:08:38 PM 593 Views
Fine, then what if she changed location after Sammael was compromised? Lord Haart - 14/02/2010 04:46:52 PM 551 Views
Any number of things are possible darius_sedai - 14/02/2010 05:45:35 PM 491 Views
You don't get it. Lord Haart - 14/02/2010 06:10:33 PM 480 Views
Go re-read it... I said there are discrepancies between what Sammael said and what Rand said darius_sedai - 14/02/2010 06:54:43 PM 579 Views
There aren't, really. DomA - 14/02/2010 09:56:53 PM 467 Views
so you think a kid who has likely never even seen a map knows the name of a castle darius_sedai - 14/02/2010 10:09:55 PM 568 Views
Two possibilities how Kerb knew the name Voscaia Sedai - 15/02/2010 09:04:14 AM 564 Views
There are infinite possibilities darius_sedai - 15/02/2010 12:48:23 PM 577 Views
Re: There are infinite possibilities Lord Haart - 15/02/2010 05:51:24 PM 536 Views
*sigh back* darius_sedai - 15/02/2010 06:08:28 PM 574 Views
Kerb wasn't planted by anyone. Fanatic-Templar - 15/02/2010 06:41:18 PM 521 Views
She's dead, people need to move on. *NM* Libby - 14/02/2010 07:34:31 AM 267 Views
I acknowledge that it's possible (even likely) that she is dead darius_sedai - 14/02/2010 01:09:53 PM 507 Views
Graendal is Toast with a capital T. Not possibly dead, not likely dead, 100% gone. Lord Haart - 14/02/2010 04:48:09 PM 510 Views
This from you? HA! darius_sedai - 14/02/2010 05:44:16 PM 511 Views
Look, Lord Haart - 14/02/2010 06:02:32 PM 576 Views
seriously I think you are mistaking me for another poster darius_sedai - 14/02/2010 06:58:47 PM 500 Views
The discrepancies are due to the series being over 12 books long... Libby - 15/02/2010 08:59:24 PM 541 Views
I'm glad... Jeordam - 15/02/2010 10:07:06 PM 543 Views
I'm with you on her probably being dead only because it's so close to the end *NM* darius_sedai - 16/02/2010 01:30:42 AM 247 Views
Why was Kerb highly likely to be delved? Lord Haart - 16/02/2010 06:42:37 AM 576 Views
I think that I have my names mixed up.... Jeordam - 16/02/2010 04:17:46 PM 456 Views
Re: I think that I have my names mixed up.... Lord Haart - 16/02/2010 05:43:51 PM 748 Views
The quote is in my original post! darius_sedai - 23/02/2010 12:30:14 PM 472 Views
Yes; but those pieces of evidence basically separate the 2 schools of thought on her "death scene" *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 16/02/2010 03:59:41 PM 246 Views
