Aran'gar cynically considers... Etzel Send a noteboard - 17/03/2010 09:27:34 PM
In the context of her possible alliance with Graendal that all her allies died (i.e. were actually killed by her), when they lost their usefulness,. This foreshadowing might not fit 100 %, namely that Aran'gar directly or indirectly killed Graendal, but I would say most foreshadowings aren't 100 % accurate (e.g. the Semirhage quote you mentioned also does state that Semirhage won't be sacrificed).

However, the quote still fits in an ironic way, namely that the author made Aran'gar's cynical thought actually come true: Aran'gar's new ally Graendal died lile every of her allies before at a time when she wasn't useful anymore in Arad Doman and in the story, misfortune actually played a part in it, and there isn't even a grave because of the balefire.

Hmmm, I don't think so. I think it may be indicative of his own end, though. - 17/03/2010 05:11:18 PM 594 Views

Wait, have I read this passage wrong?? - 17/03/2010 06:07:31 PM 526 Views
No, Aran'gar muses about her own alliances. *NM* - 17/03/2010 06:24:35 PM 214 Views
That was my interpretation as well, when I read it in the book. *NM* - 18/03/2010 09:01:01 PM 211 Views
I agree *NM* - 17/03/2010 06:22:48 PM 221 Views
I don't really see "my fellow bad guys are going to die" as being terribly prophetic - 17/03/2010 06:24:32 PM 519 Views

Arangar's allies die because she kills them, not because of some random twists of fate... - 17/03/2010 08:18:24 PM 524 Views
I disagree... - 17/03/2010 08:50:31 PM 482 Views
If you're referring to the reference to "those who found graves", then it fits most Forsaken deaths - 17/03/2010 09:15:03 PM 509 Views

It doesn't fit with Graendal's demise enough to have been hinting at it - 18/03/2010 03:45:35 AM 723 Views
