It's possible Jordan screwed up, too. :cheese

Eeeeeh, maybe. They do end up doing things that are out of character (like settling the blood feud). But this just seems really really wrong, and the Aiel never do anything like it again (do they?).

OK, so the question of who Compulsed Juilin is still open. Hrm.

Chapter 52 Despite having the look of a troublemaker, Mat apparently is also trustworthy-looking. He gets the dice in his head. It's funny, though, that he thinks "the dice in his head" and not "WTF WHY ARE THERE DICE IN MY HEAD." Chapter 53 Here's where we find out that Be'lal not...

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Dragon Reborn to the end! Cold, thanks. I thought that was it, but didn't have book 1 with me to confirm. Do one of the other Black sisters know Compulsion? Or maybe Be'lal himself Compulsed Juilin. Mother Guenna does say to Mat that the High Lord wanted the girls.

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Dragon Reborn to the end! Better post these before I keep forgetting and have a massive epic post at the end. :lol Chapter 48 Is the twisted ring ter'angreal addictive in some way? Egwene wants it against her skin at all times. I like noting clothing differences, so...

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Dragon Reborn to the end! I thought they were called People of the Dragon because the Dragon came from their blood.

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Dragon Reborn 44-50 Yeah, I'd see him somewhere he could play and be appreciated, which requires people, usually rich people.

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Dragon Reborn 44-50 Cool -- so it's coming up! I love questions that can be definitively answered. :lol Also: It's amazing how quickly the male Forsaken stepped in to start taking over. Rahvin in Andor, Sammael in Illian, Be'lal in Tear, Demandred over in Shara (well...

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Dragon Reborn 44-50 Hm, I must have missed Moiraine's comment that Sam didn't bother to block his dreams. Maybe it's coming up in Tear.

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Dragon Reborn 44-50 Chapter 45 When the cat is on the table when Thom and Gill are playing stones, I kept expecting it to flop down on the stones board. Why does Gill keep playing stones? He's abysmal at it. (He lost a lot to Loial in EotW. :lol ) Chapter 46 Mat...

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Dragon Reborn 44-50 Moiraine can sense Shadowspawn, normally, but Sam put some kind of weave over the Darkhounds to keep her and Lan from sensing them. Lan comments on it. It's possible Moiraine "re-invented" balefire in a moment of need. As you said, Nynaeve does, and...

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Dragon Reborn 44-50 I think I misread. :look Not disbelief in Myrddraal, just general disbelief that she's in this situation. [Also: I just realized Myrddraal has 2 d's.]

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Dragon Reborn 44-50 Chapter 42 Random thought: Whatever happened to that badger? ... Illianers don't believe in snow. :giggle Perrin: "He had never heard of any woman doing anything remotely like what the girl was singing about, but it did sound interesting." :rofl Lord...

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Dragon Reborn 44-50 Oh I know. He's annoying, and I'm loving that TDR has so little of him. ^^

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Dragon Reborn 44-50 :lol I'm reading 2 chapters a day on weekdays on my lunch hour. But I got so behind that I'm still trying to catch up. :desk

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Dragon Reborn 44-50 My guess is because the Black Sisters are still human. Regardless of how in-the-Shadow they are, they're forever human. Same reason people can't sense the Forsaken -- they're human, at their core (even if they are sort of immortal). Trollocs and...

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Dragon Reborn 37-43 And it could be the uncertainty from not knowing if he's the Dragon or not. That's why he's on his way to Tear, after all. Thanks, Ida. Do we see the specific story of the water offering? :scratch

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Dragon Reborn 37-43 (No comments on 33 and 34.) Chapter 35 Loial is coming to like adventures. ^^ Faile assumes Perrin is more than he appears. Once Faile knows why Perrin laughed at her calling herself Mandarb, she accepted it & understood and moved on -- she didn't...

Re: 2015 Re-Readalong: Dragon Reborn 30-36 I've not been taking many notes on these chapters. I think I'm getting too caught up in Mat's story. :lol Chapter 30 I wonder if Anaiya actually fell for Mat's "going along to get along" act. Mat reacted really strongly to 'the Dark One's own luck'...
