Yep, that's my understanding too. Gher Send a noteboard - 25/03/2010 07:00:39 PM
Brilliant theory (Bob's), and you put a nice point on it.

But I have one question about the hallway.

Rand killed Rahvin with Balefire. Enough balefire to remove everything Rahvin did for some time (like killing Mat). Even effects on objects gets removed (like the Darkhound's on Mats door when Rand BF'ed them).

Rand ducked Rahvin's balefire in the hallway. When Rand kills Rahvin, the damage to the hallway should be gone, since it happened after Mat was killed. But it isn't. Which seems impossible to me.

The balefire damage must be Rand's, since it is still there. Rahvin's would be gone. And Rand didn't duck his own balefire.

Ergo, 3 and 7 aren't in the same place.Which doesn't necessarily disprove any part of the theory, just the map.

Seems intuitively obvious to me, unless I am misremembering the Rahvin encounter, or the balefire rules.


As I understand balefire rules, balefire cannot undo balefire. So no matter how hard you balefire someone, you can't undo the damage they've done with balefire, even if you can undo the non-balefire damage they've done.

Intuitively obvious, my dear Watson newyorkersedai - 22/03/2010 01:53:54 AM 1932 Views
idle speculation != "Intuitivly obvious" Nargs - 22/03/2010 03:01:10 AM 699 Views
The best explanation for the "intuitively obvious"-comment is... Etzel - 22/03/2010 09:41:32 AM 745 Views
So again...how would Slayer know he was in the hallway? Jeordam - 22/03/2010 03:18:51 PM 829 Views
I think Slayer spied on Asmo Etzel - 22/03/2010 03:45:20 PM 587 Views
Fair enough.... Jeordam - 22/03/2010 06:25:25 PM 853 Views
I think... Etzel - 23/03/2010 09:31:41 AM 682 Views
I agree. Slayer is the most intuitively obvious candidate. *NM* Narg - 22/03/2010 06:29:07 PM 281 Views
Slayer....the book4 minor villian? *NM* Jeordam - 22/03/2010 06:34:52 PM 525 Views
Slayer actually was a major villian in TSR. Etzel - 23/03/2010 09:11:39 AM 558 Views
Re: Slayer actually was a major villian in TSR. darius_sedai - 28/03/2010 07:16:59 PM 611 Views
In my view, Graendal might have sent Slayer, which would explain her knowledge. *NM* Etzel - 29/03/2010 09:45:14 AM 609 Views
Actually that's one of my hang-ups about Slayer too darius_sedai - 06/04/2010 02:27:22 PM 584 Views
As far as I'm concerned... Fanatic-Templar - 25/03/2010 06:42:53 AM 585 Views
The problem is that people don't read the books or at least ignore what is said about Slayer... Etzel - 25/03/2010 09:41:09 AM 587 Views
Correction... Fanatic-Templar - 25/03/2010 05:22:46 PM 531 Views
So, basically... Etzel - 25/03/2010 05:50:42 PM 554 Views

well, RJ was a nuclear engineer. 'Nuff said about obviousness, huh? newyorkersedai - 26/03/2010 04:38:00 AM 632 Views

No it isn't. Fanatic-Templar - 26/03/2010 05:43:02 PM 563 Views

That Basel Gill comparison just silly... Etzel - 29/03/2010 08:49:19 PM 599 Views
Clearly, one of you has proved that Basel Gill is Demandred *NM* newyorkersedai - 29/03/2010 10:12:00 PM 278 Views
I've asked you only one question, repeatedly. Fanatic-Templar - 30/03/2010 12:34:44 AM 621 Views
Yeah, and I repeatedly tried to show you the clues... Etzel - 30/03/2010 09:17:59 AM 554 Views
You have never provided anything even resembling evidence. Fanatic-Templar - 30/03/2010 08:20:54 PM 523 Views

Egwene did it though darius_sedai - 09/04/2010 02:26:10 AM 556 Views
Not before Lord of Chaos she didn't. Fanatic-Templar - 09/04/2010 08:03:12 AM 557 Views
Rand does it in the end of TFoH, though, shortly before Asmo's death. *NM* Etzel - 09/04/2010 08:34:23 AM 278 Views
But we don't actually see that darius_sedai - 09/04/2010 12:23:37 PM 553 Views
But why would he return to his starting point, makes no sense. Etzel - 09/04/2010 12:44:21 PM 614 Views
by your argument Rand should have re-entered the waking world outside to join that battle darius_sedai - 09/04/2010 07:58:26 PM 571 Views
Hmm. True, that. Fanatic-Templar - 09/04/2010 07:28:15 PM 484 Views
I see what you are saying now darius_sedai - 09/04/2010 12:08:00 PM 505 Views

Rand's odd wounds newyorkersedai - 29/03/2010 02:48:58 AM 506 Views
RJ said that special properties of TAR was responsible for the wounds. Etzel - 29/03/2010 09:47:01 AM 522 Views
Who says the Dark One couldn't bring Asmodean back? Why would he want to? Cannoli - 25/03/2010 05:50:55 AM 606 Views
RJ said that. *NM* Etzel - 25/03/2010 09:31:32 AM 494 Views
Do you have that quote handy? darius_sedai - 28/03/2010 07:01:06 PM 532 Views

@Fanatic-Templar: Proof Slayer can't travel through T'A'R... BlackAdder - 31/03/2010 03:54:19 AM 527 Views
Exactly my point. Fanatic-Templar - 31/03/2010 05:02:41 AM 533 Views
Maybe none of it matters anyway, Slayer will go down like a punk and I know how it goes newyorkersedai - 31/03/2010 05:56:46 AM 573 Views
