Seriously, though. She was not prophecied and not a ta'veren. Without her, the Pattern would have found some other way to get what it wanted from the Tower. She & Nynaeve & Lan & Moiraine & Loial & Thom didn't have a destiny, nor do Elayne or Rand's other girlfriends, except regarding their relationship with him.


Actually they are all in Min's viewing of the lights v. darkness

And Elaida clearly Foretold Egwene uniting the Tower and making it stronger than ever. Nicola's 3 in a boat is a prophesy as was Egwene's similar Dream.

And we haven't seen the whole Prophecy of the Dragon, Cooramor or He Who Comes With the Dawn.

In the end the Pattern wove each of these individuals out for specific purposes, it didn't sit back and decide after the fact!
Domani Drag Queen in the White Tower ... Aran'gar watch out!

My sentiments exactly, though I think I'm a little more hopeful than you are. Lord Haart - 14/02/2010 07:58:01 AM 1226 Views

Just like Elayne treated him so well when she kicked him out of Andor? darius_sedai - 14/02/2010 01:35:32 PM 870 Views
What? We are no longer allowed to make predictions of the coming books unless they're pro-Egwene? Lordling - 14/02/2010 02:22:10 PM 977 Views
a theory vs. mindlessly attacking a character because you don't like them? darius_sedai - 14/02/2010 07:00:27 PM 958 Views
It IS kind of ridiculous... but how do YOU think a meeting will go? beetnemesis - 14/02/2010 07:20:08 PM 959 Views
We all do that darius_sedai - 14/02/2010 08:09:51 PM 1025 Views
Is Egwene going to do what Elayne did when she met Rand after tearing down his banners? Cannoli - 15/02/2010 11:25:27 AM 1134 Views
You just KNOW that rather than compliment all the good he's done.... Kronin al'Sulc - 14/02/2010 03:06:09 PM 820 Views
Personally, I'm rooting for Elaida's Foretelling to be fake Skeeve the Great - 14/02/2010 06:56:41 PM 1119 Views
I thought she DID say "This I Foretell?" beetnemesis - 14/02/2010 07:24:19 PM 945 Views
Yes she did. Skeeve the Great - 14/02/2010 07:34:43 PM 1161 Views
No way these are fake... she's not BA and she she says she's having a Foretelling darius_sedai - 14/02/2010 08:24:29 PM 999 Views
Good point. And the "rent in fire and blood" part is almost certain as well. Lord Haart - 16/02/2010 05:13:29 PM 761 Views

better than Nynaeve who just lies to herself in order to justify her actions! darius_sedai - 15/02/2010 05:53:17 PM 1013 Views
This is about Egwene, not Nynaeve. Lord Haart - 15/02/2010 06:09:46 PM 954 Views

Re: Well said. Gerbeaud - 15/02/2010 07:43:08 PM 862 Views
yet even Siuan seems to understand and accept Egwene's response ... odd that you can hold her to darius_sedai - 16/02/2010 01:55:35 AM 799 Views
Oh, so Elaida's treatment of Sheremin is ok because Sheremin accepted it? Lord Haart - 16/02/2010 06:49:53 AM 956 Views

I understood little sister to be a mild insult, Moiraine being so young and weak in the OP *NM* Lordling - 16/02/2010 08:25:55 PM 641 Views
maybe a touch patronizing? *NM* darius_sedai - 17/02/2010 12:51:25 PM 517 Views
Appears to be, but his thought process implies it's not as simple as him merely looking down on her. *NM* Lord Haart - 17/02/2010 05:07:19 PM 483 Views

yeah, that's worked so well on her in the past darius_sedai - 15/02/2010 01:48:05 AM 890 Views
It would be a very amusing moment. Great Lord of Chaos - 15/02/2010 03:01:37 AM 842 Views
IMO it would merely be a hypocritical moment of massive proportions darius_sedai - 15/02/2010 04:45:27 AM 843 Views
and a massive failure Sidious - 15/02/2010 06:57:18 AM 988 Views
What Egwene needs is to be shown that her actions could harm the tower. Lord Haart - 15/02/2010 08:46:30 AM 771 Views

Not quite. Lord Haart - 15/02/2010 07:11:56 PM 895 Views
Everyone else is shown to be a bit small minded. Egwene is implied to be Strong And Wise beetnemesis - 15/02/2010 09:23:47 PM 825 Views
When has she ever actually done that? Rand thinks she will, but so far she's done nothing like it! darius_sedai - 16/02/2010 02:08:23 AM 936 Views
I meant that EVERYONE is bargaining, posturing, etc. beetnemesis - 16/02/2010 02:54:29 AM 845 Views
Well miscommunication is one of the major themes of the series darius_sedai - 16/02/2010 01:17:25 PM 843 Views
the most idiotic theme IMO Sidious - 16/02/2010 03:27:26 PM 922 Views
I don't know if the theme itself is idoitic, but I would totally agree that it's gone nowhere! darius_sedai - 17/02/2010 03:16:30 AM 815 Views

That was the point of the scene in front of the Sitters during the banquet. *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 23/02/2010 06:58:50 PM 593 Views
Oh the one where Elaida tried to have her way with Egwene while the Sitters looked away? *NM* BlackAdder - 23/02/2010 10:12:04 PM 615 Views
Yes. Elaida wanted Egwene to be cowed in front of her into obedience, which would erode her support RugbyPlayingAshaman - 23/02/2010 10:18:03 PM 942 Views
I actually think it will go the opposite way. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 16/02/2010 03:44:19 PM 922 Views
