This seems like a perfect example of foreshadowing. While you are right that Aran'gar implies that she killed her allies, if we just take this quote, it exactly describes Graendal's death before it happened.

Ironic foreshadowing of Graendal's death?

Hmmm, I don't think so. I think it may be indicative of his own end, though.

I don't follow your logic here

Still, this quote doesn't foreshadow Aran'gar's death at all. *NM*

That was my interpretation as well, when I read it in the book. *NM*

I don't really see "my fellow bad guys are going to die" as being terribly prophetic

Arangar's allies die because she kills them, not because of some random twists of fate...

If you're referring to the reference to "those who found graves", then it fits most Forsaken deaths

I disagree; as I explained in the other posts the parallels are there in an ironic way. *NM*

It doesn't fit with Graendal's demise enough to have been hinting at it
