    Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: To the End!

    Re: Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: Chapters 22-27 Oh, these 2k+ names - Semirhage's alias is Anath, and under this name we first meet her in WH, arriving in Ebou Dar together with Tuon, whose truthspeaker she is.

    Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: To the End!

    Re: Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: Chapters 9-11 Yes, and in TPoD ch2 (comparing strength of the windfinders) Elayne admits that Egwene is stronger. But before Falme - two fledgelings far from their ultimate potential - why not? Fits very loosely, perhaps her capture, because she was...

    Re: Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: Chapters 9-11 @ Aduivas Ida: "forced" is used in the sense of an accelerating gain in using the power - mostly by using it whereever and whenever it is possible. It's done routinely in the Black Tower to get the Ashaman fit for battle in the shortest...

    Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: To the End!

    Re: Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: Prologue-Ch 2 I'm quite aware of Siuan's and Leaine's activities - but even then, with the AS seeing Egwene as a "biddable Child", a "grunter for the table", what was her function meant to be? The thought that she would be expendable if things went wrong...

    Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: To the End!

    Re: Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: Prologue-Ch 2 Let's make the loooong prologue short: Section #1: Elaida - ambitious, arrogant, deluded. And still in many points almost right - like with the reasons why the Salidar Aes Sedai chose Egwene, an accepted, as their Amyrlin. And there is the...
