    Yeah that's pretty much it. The timeline is one of the more interesting things to look into about the Second Age I find. Quite telling the way a few things occured.

    I'd have thought you'd be sick of being corrected by me and wouldn't be making assumptions :) She was powerhungry long before that. LTT and Mierin had a relationship prior to drilling the bore which he terminated mainly due to her ambition. Not exactly sure how long they had been broken up...

    I wish RJ could give a straight answer sometimes................. This quote while sort of suggests she wasn't twisted.....doesn't rule it out either. We should have people with bloody tape recorders at these interviews, the paraphrase things are annoying. This is the answer I really wanted...

    Well you've hit on one of my favorite things to think about there. Mierin was indeed right there at the destruction of the Sharom during the drilling of the bore but doesn't declare for the dark for a very long time. The official record seems to make her number 5. As far as I can work it out...

    It's up for debate if he'd actually "met" him or not, it's possible both ways. But he would certainly be aware of who Slayer was, and probably would be able to put two and two together when he pops out of TAR. Actually to me saying "you" sounds like something you would say from someone you...

    We know Graendal is behind it. But we don't know the how of the death. So we don't know the method she used, or even if she did it in person herself or through a proxy ie their handy dandy assassin on call, Slayer.

    He was mostly-shielded Tazren still from Lanfear. A novice could have overpowered him. The thing about how is that RJ has always said it was how and where he was killed which was why he wasn't being brought back. Not just, how. but where as well. Which makes it tricky has hell to break down...

    Paragraph breaks dude, that block of text is next to impossible to read. Lanfear maybe might turn back, although she's seemed to enjoy her fair share of "evil actions" sending people insane in their sleep and so on. She's not in Semirhages league of course mind you.

    In all likelihood that is correct, I don't think Ishy will agree with Rand that the "journey is worth it, even if you fail in the end." True...... however being a dark friend means you can be free to be as horrible as you like and suffer as many people as you want. That mindset means you are...

    So, About the Forsaken...

    Well that really depends on the strength of the argument. Which currently to be honest, is a little weak. Rand is gonna need a little more than "love makes it worthwhile" to convince Elan Morin that fighting a never ending grinding war of attrition a good path. He's gonna need a plan to end...

    Oh I agree with you, its almost certain that is true. Just niggles at the back of my mind for some reason though. I mean you read a lot of what Ishy says, and he sounds crazy sure, but most of what he says is actually true. A little exaggerated sometimes and overly dramatic, but even in the...

    So, About the Forsaken...

    Probably, I'm almost certain I'm wrong. But Ishy spent hundreds of years manipulating the course of history, pretending to be various people over the years. I'm not saying he's "totally sane", he's clearly got an anger problem at the very least. But I just can't shake the itchy feeling that...

    So, About the Forsaken...

    I dunno, I've never been terribly convinced Elan Morin was ever insane to be honest. I know its the "common knowledge", but it rubs me wrong for some odd reason. Weird of me I know, but I can't shake it for some reason.

    If anyone is a candidate for turning back to the Light, its Moridin. He only turned to the dark in the first place because he decided based upon the nature of the wheel that the dark ones triumph is inevitable. He made a logical decision to ensure his best survival to join up (Rand almost came...
