It was lost by some, but others knew of it. And only the Hundred Companions went crazy instantly. All the other male channelers went crazy slowly over time. I totally agree that the Hundred Companions needed to be taken out.

Agreed Jen (Caliden).

I've thought of that, as well as Far Madding as a new location. That, and having AS create and tie off shields on the men, then make sure that the shield never fully dissolves. I haven't had any luck convincing anyone else that it would be a good call though :-P

I mean just giving them a choice. Either be Gentled like they currently are, or accept the limitation of either living in Far Madding or a bridge town of Tar Valon. It's not like it's taking away anything ... just giving them another option.

Yeah, the Gentling sentence is more of a guaranteed Depression for life ... unless you find something to overcome it. Something I always wondered was why they *had* to Gentle men anyways. I mean, they clearly know how to shield a man, and could find a Brown to do the research on how long it...
