Exactly my point. Fanatic-Templar Send a noteboard - 31/03/2010 05:02:41 AM
Evidence that Slayer cannot travel from one point in the real world to another by passing through the world of dreams: When attempting to flee Perrin, rather than exiting the Dreamworld beyond the Tarendrelle, where he was and where he would be out of Perrin's reach, he instead returns to the spot where he supposedly fell asleep, where Perrin is and where he is surrounded by Perrin's men. This implies he did not have a choice where he would reappear in the real world.

Where did this happen (i.e., what book/chapter?)

If this is from tSR, IIRC, Perrin shot him in the chest and Slayer woke up and rode off from the camp, clutching his chest. I don't think he had time to change where he was (that requires lots of concentration in T'A'R, even from Egwene). I don't think he had entered T'A'R in the flesh if he woke up in Perrin's camp (which he did). I think he was just dreaming in that case?


Precisely. Which is why at that point (that is, until we get to meet Slayer again in Winter's Heart) we must reasonably conclude that Slayer is a Dreamer/Dreamwalker with some special powers due to his merging of two people. (As I mentioned elsewhere, at that time I thought this meant that Luc lived and Isam died, and that Isam was therefore bound to Tel'aran'rhiod as the Heroes of the Horn are.)

As for evidence that it can be done, I believe Egwene has used T'A'R to travel to different places, no?


Yes, in Lord of Chaos.

Intuitively obvious, my dear Watson newyorkersedai - 22/03/2010 01:53:54 AM 1862 Views
idle speculation != "Intuitivly obvious" Nargs - 22/03/2010 03:01:10 AM 655 Views
The best explanation for the "intuitively obvious"-comment is... Etzel - 22/03/2010 09:41:32 AM 679 Views
So again...how would Slayer know he was in the hallway? Jeordam - 22/03/2010 03:18:51 PM 759 Views
I think Slayer spied on Asmo Etzel - 22/03/2010 03:45:20 PM 538 Views
Fair enough.... Jeordam - 22/03/2010 06:25:25 PM 782 Views
I think... Etzel - 23/03/2010 09:31:41 AM 607 Views
I agree. Slayer is the most intuitively obvious candidate. *NM* Narg - 22/03/2010 06:29:07 PM 253 Views
Slayer....the book4 minor villian? *NM* Jeordam - 22/03/2010 06:34:52 PM 469 Views
Slayer actually was a major villian in TSR. Etzel - 23/03/2010 09:11:39 AM 506 Views
Re: Slayer actually was a major villian in TSR. darius_sedai - 28/03/2010 07:16:59 PM 538 Views
In my view, Graendal might have sent Slayer, which would explain her knowledge. *NM* Etzel - 29/03/2010 09:45:14 AM 541 Views
Actually that's one of my hang-ups about Slayer too darius_sedai - 06/04/2010 02:27:22 PM 517 Views
As far as I'm concerned... Fanatic-Templar - 25/03/2010 06:42:53 AM 528 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 522 Views
Correction... Fanatic-Templar - 25/03/2010 05:22:46 PM 473 Views
So, basically... Etzel - 25/03/2010 05:50:42 PM 509 Views

That Basel Gill comparison just silly... Etzel - 29/03/2010 08:49:19 PM 536 Views
Clearly, one of you has proved that Basel Gill is Demandred *NM* newyorkersedai - 29/03/2010 10:12:00 PM 257 Views
I've asked you only one question, repeatedly. Fanatic-Templar - 30/03/2010 12:34:44 AM 573 Views
Yeah, and I repeatedly tried to show you the clues... Etzel - 30/03/2010 09:17:59 AM 503 Views
You have never provided anything even resembling evidence. Fanatic-Templar - 30/03/2010 08:20:54 PM 470 Views

Egwene did it though darius_sedai - 09/04/2010 02:26:10 AM 507 Views
Not before Lord of Chaos she didn't. Fanatic-Templar - 09/04/2010 08:03:12 AM 496 Views
Rand does it in the end of TFoH, though, shortly before Asmo's death. *NM* Etzel - 09/04/2010 08:34:23 AM 250 Views
But we don't actually see that darius_sedai - 09/04/2010 12:23:37 PM 489 Views
But why would he return to his starting point, makes no sense. Etzel - 09/04/2010 12:44:21 PM 522 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 505 Views
Hmm. True, that. Fanatic-Templar - 09/04/2010 07:28:15 PM 443 Views
I see what you are saying now darius_sedai - 09/04/2010 12:08:00 PM 444 Views

Rand's odd wounds newyorkersedai - 29/03/2010 02:48:58 AM 458 Views
RJ said that special properties of TAR was responsible for the wounds. Etzel - 29/03/2010 09:47:01 AM 468 Views
Who says the Dark One couldn't bring Asmodean back? Why would he want to? Cannoli - 25/03/2010 05:50:55 AM 547 Views
RJ said that. *NM* Etzel - 25/03/2010 09:31:32 AM 448 Views
Do you have that quote handy? darius_sedai - 28/03/2010 07:01:06 PM 480 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 523 Views
