    See, I think Mat changed greatly, Jodea Sedai. Perrin remained a bit of a lump, it's true (although he did accept the mantle of leadership in the end, and this time chose duty over Faile), but Mat grew in very subtle ways. I like that he didn't lose his cheekiness/rogue-ish nature, but I feel...

    I thought this. I loved her when she was a "novice" in the Tower, standing up to Elaida and so on. I even liked it when she was dealing with becoming the Amyrlin proper later. But from what I remember, I found her pretty sanctimonius in AMOL. Didn't mean I wasn't sad when she died, I was...

    There's a difference between a white glow, and being white. The Heroes of the Horn still have colour (the reins on the horse are described as golden, Birgitte's clothes are described with reference to her yellow trousers etc), it's only the glow/aura which is white. Sorry, I loved Bela and was...

    Noal's horse is described as white :( Not Bela. Which sucks; I love the idea that Bela could be bound to the Horn :)

    This. I got hints that Cadsuane often felt that the whole system by which AS determined precedence (ie strength in the Power above all else) wasn't the best way. People she utilised very often had low strength such as Daighiean (sp?) - she saw them for the skills they had, rather than writing...

    When Tuon has the weave for Gateways revealed to her fairly early on in the book. The damane embarasses the sul'dam by babbling about how many Aes Sedai she'll trade for her freedom etc. That damane is Elaida.

    Now that you've said this, Marlinya Sedai, I agree that this is quite likely. We know from Verin talking to Mat that a stray thought can influence the location of a Gateway. I can imagine that someone who is suddenly faced with a bubble of evil would be thinking of the DO/comparing it to...

    The thing which surprised me about Cadsuane being offered Amyrlin is her age. I know it's considered rude to talk about it, but it has frequently been mentioned that most sisters believed her dead already, because of how old she is. She herself had intimated a few times that she was pretty...
