I agree with Merana that what Alanna did could be a sort of rape :| But what is strange for me is why she didn't release his Bond earlier, as soon as she was captured, or even sooner... She learned very quickly just how non-effective it was in controlling him :|

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Lord of Chaos, to the end! Isn't that just the first of the fool boxes that Sammael gives her?

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Lord of Chaos, to the end! I must say, Dumais Wells gives me goosebumps every time I read it :look It just shows how utterly helpless normal people really are against channelers. It also gives you another perspective on why so many societies feel the need to control...

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Lord of Chaos, to the end! Well, to be fair, a lot of things that happen in Salidar is sort of improbable :look Like Egwene as Amyrlin. And the way Rand presented it to Mat also does not help :look But yes, Mat does not come off well here, or in the beginning in Ebou...

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Lord of Chaos, to the end! If Rand went to get Elayne himself he would put himself in a position where he either have to piss off a lot of Aes Sedai, or ask them to do something :look Even if he doesn't understand how many there are, or how organised they are, he doesn't...

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Lord of Chaos, Chapters 49-54 Yeah, I think Valda shows just what kind of guy he is with his "solution" :anger And yes, the fact that Paitr and the others is caught right before their plans were executed is really an astonishing coincidence :blink But we never get any...

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Lord of Chaos, Chapters 49-54 Yes, I am not a big fan of early Egwene, but Egwene post-Aiel and Egwene the Amyrlin are not so bad ^^ And Egwene the captive novice is made of AWESOME!

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Lord of Chaos, Chapters 42-48 Already in Great Hunt it seems that Fain only felt Rand. I don't know if that was ever explained :shifty

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Lord of Chaos, Chapters 42-48 No Mother, I think the connection is the remnants of the bond Fain had to the three boys when he was hunting them in the first book. He hasn't been cut with the dagger yet, has he?

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Lord of Chaos, Chapters 42-48 Yeah... And then of course Rand sends her on a mission WITH PERRIN :desk

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Lord of Chaos, Chapters 42-48 Yes, it's like Berelain are two COMPLETELY different persons :look She is the very competent person who prevents everything in Cairhien from blowing up in Rands face, and she is the annoying person who goes after Perrin like a maniac :look

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Lord of Chaos, Chapters 42-48 Yeah, I like Min pretty much up until this point :look She gets a little boring later. And I like the way they portrayed Egwenes Raising, how utterly terrified she was. I also quite like the point when Egwene realizes that the other Aes...

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Lord of Chaos, Chapters 34-41 Kassina, Shadowspawn, specifically Trollocs and Myrdraal can't pass through a Gateway. They will die. We learn this in book... 11 I think, when Rand suddenly remembers :look And I think it is weird that the document that Morgase signed here...

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Lord of Chaos, Chapters 20-27 Years of practice for the Wise Ones?

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Lord of Chaos, Chapters 20-27 Yes, Aes Sedai are very skilled at ignoring what they don't want to see or think about :look I think this is one of the main reasons that the White Tower lost the control they had over the world around the time of the Trolloc Wars... They...

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Lord of Chaos, Chapters 14-19 Yeah, sun=fire :look

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Lord of Chaos, Chapters 14-19 Yeah, to me sun-haired means red-tinted, if not full on red hair :look But I know from pictures that Elayne is blonde now :look

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Lord of Chaos, Chapters 14-19 Another difference is that among the Whitecloaks nationality doesn't seem to matter. It is like they stop having a nationality as soon as they become Whitecloaks :look That is certainly not true in the Band, they are still conscious of their...

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Lord of Chaos, Chapters 14-19 I believe the man Sevanna met are Sammael. I think this is confirmed in later books. And yes, the Band is a quite astonishing construction, not the least that so many nobles from so many countries works together without any hitch. And the...

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Lord of Chaos, Chapters 8-13 Yeah, I always wondered what made Alanna do that, and especially since it is not exploited more :look I mean yes, we have the whole "saving-Alanna" thing in aMoL, but honestly I would think that Alanna would have released the bond earlier when...
