I'm pretty sure Luthair got that from his dad, versus anything he experienced in Seanchan.
It is possible that it's a combination of both. But really , having that background information about the Aes Sedai in Seanchan fighting for more power does change a lot in my opinion. You see why they might have thought that channelers are dangerous and untrustworthy... because they actually were.
It is good to know where the Aes Sedai came from that was with Luthair - I guess they could have also traveled across the ocean to him to offer the new ter'angreal??
I mean, I thought so too, but like I posted earlier, why tf would a Westland Aes Sedai want to do that? If Luthair hated Aes Sedai like Arthur, then it doesn't make sense. But having a Seanchan Aes Sedai getting on his good side, makes more sense, since she would get more power after he wins (which she thought is going to happen and it happened)
What I am curious about now is how much of the knowledge of those Aes Sedai was left after the leashing and who was it transfered to? The sul'dam? What would sul'dam know about chanelling if they don't channel themselves? Someone needed to teach those first sul'dam in the first place. Or the first sul'dam were Aes Sedai too? But then they needed to be leashed too... argh I don't know,...
Also how was the Power kept being passed down through the generations? They couldn't have let the damane procreate could they? Were the sul'dam the ones who procreated and passed the talent of channeling on? Men were executed if found to be able to channel... so it only leaves the sul'dam I guess.
