As I said, I'm not really in either camp, just throwing ideas out there. As for you having already said stuff in this thread - be aware that it's been going on for weeks, the posts are HUGE and frankly, I can't keep track of who is arguing for what most of the time :look I found Elaida...

Don's examples weren't all about evil taking choice away at all, unless we read different ones. For example - Ingtar choosing to reject the DO. That's a choice in favour of light, and he does that. OK he dies, but he still chooses to reject the DO. Rand himself chooses to reject Ishy (who he...

Hey, I'd rather be Elphaba than Galinda any day :P

Glad I could help :) As goodness knows the rest of the discussion being waged in this thread makes my head hurt :rofl

I seem to remember it being called something like "The woman with the gray hair"... Ah-hah, found it! Regarding who she was (generally agreed that it's Nakomi) and what she's doing there http://www.tarvalon.net/showthread.php?6400-The-woman-with-the-Gray-hair

If I remember rightly, there is an entire thread devoted to Nakomi. Just because it's not in here, doesn't mean it's not being discussed ;)

Do you think Hawking actually went and did what Mat asked? I wasn't sure if he just viewed it as an obscure joke from The Gambler.

I'm sure that Tuon either expressly states, or thinks (when we're in a section from her POV) that she has no issues with the thought of breaking the Treaty. It'd probably come back to the idea of them feeling that all those in Randland are traitors/didn't keep their Oaths, so any treaties or...

Thank you. I had totally forgotten that in my rushed read :o

This is a very good point. Also, Demandred was busy with his role (decimating the armies of the Light), Graendal was at Shayol Ghul (if not inside) dealing with the Aiel and AS there, Moghedien was... what was she doing again? Lanfear was busy in TAR, plotting to switch sides again (or at...

This. The other thing to remember is that LTT didn't really understand war - I'm sure that was mentioned in the book. Demandred was actually the better tactician. But even then, it does seem like LTT (and even Demandred's) modus operandi was just to throw loads of Power at something, and hope...

OK, at the risk of sounding like I am stalking your posts, thank you SO Much for asking this, as I was about to ask the same question :giggle I agree that the old woman is Nakomi (though I have no idea who she is beyond her name - any theories?). But there's nothing to suggest what actually...

I absolutely love this interpretation/analogy, Marlinya Sedai. Hammar's post is also brilliant, and I agree with both. I need to sit and hash out my theories in my own brain before I inflict them on anyone else, so for now I'll just stick with "I agree with Hammar and Marlinya" :giggle
