    New Stuff Found upon Re-read

    Actually the reason I think it's accurate is because of what the TP does to the pattern. If they try and touch the DO with the One Power he can Taint or Destroy it. However if the sealing weave includes a Push Back against the DO to clear the bore, one made from the True Power, then the Dark One...

    New Stuff Found upon Re-read

    Cadsuane actually gave us the clue. "It Magnifies The Taint Causing Wildness Of The Mind". Callandor works as a Sa`Angreal for all 3 powers. "And 3 Will Become 1" Saidin, Saidar, and the True Power combined in a weave to form a permanent repair of the bore.

    New Stuff Found upon Re-read

    Wasn't talking about the TOM closing scene with the Red Veiled Aiel. We were talking about the scene in LOC where one of the Salidar Aes Sedai who was part of the Embassy sent to Rand was attacked by "Supposed" Aiel.

    Read that scene again closely. Those men weren't Aiel at all. I believe it was Fain and his remaining Darkfriends. Dark hair and eyes, and not much taller than she is. Which is why I say there not Aiel.

    Memory of Light- Chapter 2 Spoilers

    The Male bond is the same weave more or less both ways. One just has a stronger compelling/obedience portion to it. Something Aes Sedai seem to be able to do as a separate weave touching the parts of the brain where the bond is held. (Myrelle did this in the scene where Lan first came to her).

    Memory of Light- Chapter 2 Spoilers

    The majority of this novel will take place over a 16-24 hours span. Its the day before the Last Battle. And all the plots (that will be resolved) have to come together in this short span. So expect a lot of intercutting between Merrilor and other locations and events. As for the chapters...

    Do you start at new spring?

    When I started I was told wait till after Dragon Reborn then read New Spring. Which I honestly found to be helpful. I had a basic understanding of the world and Aes Sedai and found that that foreknowledge helped alot.

    The distance off the ground a channeler can lift a person off the ground is directly proportional to their level of strength in the one power. It is impossible to lift one's self with the one power. Creating a bridge can hold a person in the air for X distance where X is enumerated by the...

    If Rand had a Theme Song....

    For Rand I honestly think this song works best. Three Days Grace - It's Never Too Late http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lL2ZwXj1tXM

    Memory of Light Prologue - Spoilers

    I honestly think my favorite part of the prologue and first chapter was about Domon and Egeanin. Because it answers a question about one of Egwene's dreams. In COT Chapter 20 she dreamed of falling off a cliff and hanging for dear life when a Seanchan woman with a sword on her back saves her...

    I have always took it to mean the Aiel. How often have the Wise Ones said that he needed to "Know Their Blood For His". Now with Aviendha believing that their punishment of the 3 fold land ends after fighting the last battle. Add on top of that the Prophecies of the Aiel about how he will...

    Things I seem to have missed

    Well The cannons Aludra has made is actually not that far in advance of their over all technological state either. At least when compaired to the real world. The first Firearms known to have been invented was created in China in the 1200's. Here is a example. Chinese Hand Cannon on display...

    Twice dawns the day

    Actually some time ago a person I follow on twitter asked Brandon about what Callandor looked like. I think she was planning on making one for a cosplay or something. According to what he said. It looked like the standard kind of sword that Rand and Lan had been shown to use. A Slightly curved...

    Red Eagle games interview?

    Well if you mean the Console/PC game they said they were going to make. That project is dead. REG apparently thought a Farmville style IOS/Andriod (Mobile Phone) game was the way to go. "The Aiel War" was announced on Kickstarter as the first game to be made. It would be producted by Jet Set...

    Memory of Light Excerpts - discussion (obvious MoL spoilers).

    "Twice Dawns The Day" and now "Wait For The light". My speculation, There will be a Eclipse. During that eclipse if they Break the remaining seals they loose. They must wait for the Light to return when it ends. And ... Wait For It... "Watch For The Shadow At Noon" before breaking them. (The...

    WoT Audio Books

    My only issues with the Audio books is how between Michael and Kate they don't seem to decided how something is pronounced before they record. Often in the same book they pronounce the same words differently.

    Things I seem to have missed

    The Nynaeve bit with the crow bar is valid for the era. Knowledge of levers, fulcrums, and force, to move a object would be needed for their level of technology. Especially given how many of their large cities and structures are made in stone. So that I wouldn't call knowledge of anything super...

    Memory of Light Excerpts - discussion (obvious MoL spoilers).

    What we have gotten so far as just had my mouth watering for more. Now with the entire prologue coming out on October 2nd I'm even more excited. As far as what I hope eventually gets in the book Is a scene of Egwene with the whole Hall, The Wise Ones, and the Wind Finders all facing down Tuon...
