Rand's odd wounds newyorkersedai Send a noteboard - 29/03/2010 02:48:58 AM
IMO, that answer also makes it rather unlikely that Graendal was there to use Compulsion on servants in the Palace (or even that Graendal & Sammael disguised themselves as those servants), as it was often suggested. The servants are obviously irrelevant, and their mention isn't supposed to be a hint to indicate that a Forsaken might be in the Palace a bit later to get servants as spies. The Palace was anyway largely empty except for Rand's troops at the time of Asmo's murder.


IIRC, RJ was very evasive about some things in the fight with Andor's usurper. There were questions, I think, about the fact that some of Rand's TaR injuries didn't go away after he BF'd Rahvin - and RJ RAFO'd those questions.

The speculation some people made is that some other Forsaken must've been around, attacking Rand by putting him in a piranha tank (basically) and then trying to change him into something else. If Rand's injuries didn't disappear because of some special propert of TaR, this would place a Forsaken in the palace - whether or not they did something to the servants.

Intuitively obvious, my dear Watson newyorkersedai - 22/03/2010 01:53:54 AM 1889 Views
idle speculation != "Intuitivly obvious" Nargs - 22/03/2010 03:01:10 AM 680 Views
The best explanation for the "intuitively obvious"-comment is... Etzel - 22/03/2010 09:41:32 AM 712 Views
So again...how would Slayer know he was in the hallway? Jeordam - 22/03/2010 03:18:51 PM 799 Views
I think Slayer spied on Asmo Etzel - 22/03/2010 03:45:20 PM 565 Views
Fair enough.... Jeordam - 22/03/2010 06:25:25 PM 815 Views
I think... Etzel - 23/03/2010 09:31:41 AM 641 Views
I agree. Slayer is the most intuitively obvious candidate. *NM* Narg - 22/03/2010 06:29:07 PM 268 Views
Slayer....the book4 minor villian? *NM* Jeordam - 22/03/2010 06:34:52 PM 501 Views
Slayer actually was a major villian in TSR. Etzel - 23/03/2010 09:11:39 AM 534 Views
Re: Slayer actually was a major villian in TSR. darius_sedai - 28/03/2010 07:16:59 PM 565 Views
In my view, Graendal might have sent Slayer, which would explain her knowledge. *NM* Etzel - 29/03/2010 09:45:14 AM 573 Views
Actually that's one of my hang-ups about Slayer too darius_sedai - 06/04/2010 02:27:22 PM 554 Views
As far as I'm concerned... Fanatic-Templar - 25/03/2010 06:42:53 AM 555 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 551 Views
Correction... Fanatic-Templar - 25/03/2010 05:22:46 PM 506 Views
So, basically... Etzel - 25/03/2010 05:50:42 PM 534 Views

well, RJ was a nuclear engineer. 'Nuff said about obviousness, huh? newyorkersedai - 26/03/2010 04:38:00 AM 589 Views
Apparently... Etzel - 26/03/2010 08:58:32 AM 558 Views

Clearly, one of you has proved that Basel Gill is Demandred *NM* newyorkersedai - 29/03/2010 10:12:00 PM 271 Views
I've asked you only one question, repeatedly. Fanatic-Templar - 30/03/2010 12:34:44 AM 599 Views
Yeah, and I repeatedly tried to show you the clues... Etzel - 30/03/2010 09:17:59 AM 533 Views

Egwene did it though darius_sedai - 09/04/2010 02:26:10 AM 533 Views
Not before Lord of Chaos she didn't. Fanatic-Templar - 09/04/2010 08:03:12 AM 529 Views
Rand does it in the end of TFoH, though, shortly before Asmo's death. *NM* Etzel - 09/04/2010 08:34:23 AM 265 Views
But we don't actually see that darius_sedai - 09/04/2010 12:23:37 PM 519 Views
But why would he return to his starting point, makes no sense. Etzel - 09/04/2010 12:44:21 PM 576 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 536 Views
Hmm. True, that. Fanatic-Templar - 09/04/2010 07:28:15 PM 467 Views
I see what you are saying now darius_sedai - 09/04/2010 12:08:00 PM 479 Views

RJ said that special properties of TAR was responsible for the wounds. Etzel - 29/03/2010 09:47:01 AM 503 Views
Who says the Dark One couldn't bring Asmodean back? Why would he want to? Cannoli - 25/03/2010 05:50:55 AM 582 Views
RJ said that. *NM* Etzel - 25/03/2010 09:31:32 AM 478 Views
Do you have that quote handy? darius_sedai - 28/03/2010 07:01:06 PM 506 Views
