    Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: To the End!

    That would've been amazing! :joy Ok, I'm finally done with Crown of Swords. :desk Now for Path of Daggers... I'm caught up on reading, just not on typing up my notes. :o Yeah! :blink That was close. :rofl That’s how I always saw it. You can invert your weaves when you’re tying something off...

    Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: To the End!

    I always interpreted it as her misinterpreting it initially and then she kinda just runs with that interpretation for long enough that she tricks herself into thinking that those were the actual words. Of course, that theory doesn't work if we ever see her actually quoting the actual words she...

    Chapter 26: -Morgase doesn’t believe Asha’man exist. (understandably) -Morgase uses a metaphor about = being torn to shreds and then knitting those shreds up again. If something knitted is actually torn to shreds, that doesn’t really work to just knit it up again… -Morgase also, in a common...

    Oh, that makes more sense! But yeah, I'm glad I don't live in Ebou Dar. :lol

    Chapter 19: -Cadsuane is trying to push Rand in a direction he doesn’t expect to try to figure out who he is -Cadsuane asks Annoura and Merana if they had any hand in the ‘Vileness’ after the Aiel War. Reading about it in the Companion, it makes sense that they were confused at her question...

    Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: To the End!

    So... I'm crazy behind. :blink I finally just got caught up on my reading, but I'm probably about a book behind on my typing up of notes... so I don't expect anyone to read them really, but prepare for a deluge of notes. :lol Chapter 12: -As is fitting for Mat, the Band has an Old Tongue name...

    Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: To the End!

    Re: Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: Chapters 17-21 Yeah, it's a weird situation there. Technically, the Band is Dragonsworn in one definition of the word. They do follow what the Dragon says (though I suppose they never swore to him) so they kind of are dragonsworn. However, the term has taken...

    Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: To the End!

    Re: Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: Chapters 12-16 Yeah... I can kinda see where they're coming from with this 'bargain'. Nynaeve and Elayne were the ones who came asking the Sea Folk for help and, while of course it would be nice of them to just help (since this is the fate of the world we're...

    Re: Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: Chapters 12-16 Chapter 9: -Skimming can be used from a place you don't know to one you do. With Traveling you really need to know the place where you are. -Egwene thinks Alanna acts strangely. Impetuously. She wonders if there's some deeper motive. We...

    Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: To the End!

    Re: Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: Chapters 3-8 I hadn't considered that! Even knowing Sheriam is Black Ajah, it's so ingrained that Aes Sedai can't lie that I kept thinking that she couldn't and was forced to tell Egwene the truth. (though, of course, as you said, she chose to tell the truth...

    Re: Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: Chapters 3-8 Maybe that's what the Forsaken called themselves back then?

    Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: To the End!

    Re: Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: Chapters 3-8 It looks like Toveine isn't Black Ajah. From what I can find online, she was turned in the Black Tower, but didn't start off Black Ajah. Yeah, this bothers me as well. He does the same thing with the word 'farmer'. Saying that various nobles or...

    Re: Re-Readalong: A Crown of Swords: Chapters 3-8 Prologue: -Elaida's plans for her palace are insane. She wants it to be even taller than Ogier-built buildings. That sounds dangerous. :blink -She actually asks (demands?) that Ogier come and make the palace for her! -Elaida trusts Galina (Black...
