Re: Did the characters come too easily to power? Underwood Send a noteboard - 17/03/2010 01:38:02 PM
Cannoli,

I just have to say that was amazingly well-written and well thought out.
As for your question itself, whether it was too easy for them, and would it be better (or more realistic, or more mature) if the character had to actually commit...harsh acts, for the greater good, I see what you're saying. I think there's still opportunity for characters to have to make that choice, so hopefully your wishes will come true!

Once again...well done, sir. This was a very good read.

All the way through, up to ripping her self-delusional assessments of her "achievements" in KoD Cannoli - 02/04/2010 09:27:54 PM 815 Views

Look who's talking - look at how you write "long" ! Cannoli - 18/03/2010 02:06:42 PM 761 Views
I usually read Cannoli's epic-length posts... Myrdhyn - 17/03/2010 04:08:33 PM 909 Views
Ha! Imagine if I didn't double-space the paragraphs. That is a fairly new practice on my part. *NM* Cannoli - 18/03/2010 03:36:13 PM 429 Views
I'd suggest you had more paragraphs......with a lot of spacing..... *NM* car'a'aman - 19/03/2010 04:42:05 AM 454 Views
Oh I know. I've been lurking here/wotmania for a VERY long time. Myrdhyn - 22/03/2010 01:31:30 PM 841 Views

I would say those cases are both examples of aknowledging their own limitations and priorities Cannoli - 18/03/2010 04:02:13 PM 956 Views

I was more focussed on the cost of GETTING power, not the prices of discharging it responsibly Cannoli - 18/03/2010 04:27:18 PM 982 Views
I think this is an excellent analysis redqueen - 18/03/2010 01:56:33 PM 929 Views
Thanks. *NM* Cannoli - 18/03/2010 04:28:52 PM 448 Views
While most of this is true... fionwe1987 - 19/03/2010 06:47:19 AM 782 Views
Siuan's failure to properly help Rand should motivate Egwene to overthrow...oh, right. Egwene. Cannoli - 19/03/2010 11:52:10 PM 811 Views
What do you mean by "properly"? fionwe1987 - 20/03/2010 07:57:26 AM 772 Views
