He often just mentions that the Forsaken or other villains did something very evil off-screen. For example, he could have shown us on-screen how Semirhage brutally erased the Seanchan court, how Graendal cleverly abducted the Sharan leaders, or how Aran'gar assassinated people among the Rebels. IMO, this would be powerful scenes and make the villains more threatening & cooler.


I tend to let my imagination run with some of these things ... I kind of like that each of the FS has obviously been out there committing random acts of vileness throughout the series, makes for some mystery in things like "who killed Asmo" or "did Graendal have a hand in what happened with Semirhage in Arad Domon" etc ... if we saw every action the FS made it would be kinda dull I think.
Domani Drag Queen in the White Tower ... Aran'gar watch out!

I agree - IRL I often notice that it's less "men" vs "women", and moreso personality clashes. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 31/03/2010 02:45:16 PM 786 Views

It's less of a theme and more like a case of mental derangement RugbyPlayingAshaman - 01/04/2010 09:04:58 PM 778 Views
it's even more frustrating that it started to be used for a while darius_sedai - 08/04/2010 11:51:42 AM 807 Views
