Sorry if this has been brought up before but ive recently realised that tel'aran'rhiod cannot reasonably be a reflection of every world. <br><br>for one thing it reflects the way things are in the world, and if it was a reflection of every world it w...

First of all, let me state I have no evidence to back this theory up, its just something that hit me when I was reading CoT. I think Nicola bonded Areina as her warder. Reasons Why: <br><br>1.Nicola shouldnt know the weave to be able to bond, but t...

In CoT, Aviendha's horse is named Siswai, which Elayne says means "spear" in the old tongue. It doesn't. Siswai has to mean Dragon. The error here is coming from siswai'aman, the spear of the dragon, but the secret name of the Aiel algai d'siswai, ...

In the BWB it is stated that there are around 500-1,000 Dark Friends in a city of 100,000. <br><br>This makes out to about .5% to 1%. <br><br>However the Black Ajah clearly has more then ten members. (1% of 1000 Aes Sedai) <br><br>A rough estimate wo...

There are 2 more books to go (supposedly). And we have anywhere between 3 - 8 different storylines depending on how you view it. <br><br>1. Rand - Sechan <br><br>2. Mat - Tuon <br><br>3. Perrin - Shaido <br><br>These 3 may (possibly) combine given ...

The essence of the DO has been thoroughly discussed, but not the Creator. Everybody seems to whine that the Creator doesn't do anything actively against the DO. and here's why: <br><br>RJ's world is based on duality- saidin vs saidar, light vs darkne...

I believe that at Tarmon Gai'don, Rand kills Lanfear (or better said her new incarnation) with balefire. <br><br>Now some pointers from the book why I think this'll happen: <br><br>1) Rand has problems with killing women, even if they attack him. He ...

Gholams <br><br>Try this one on for size. Its only slightly wackier than my first theory. Mordeth was a dead gholam. Lets assume Ishy found him in a stasis box and sent him to Aridhol during the Trolloc Wars to take them out of the fight by whatever ...

I was just rereading the end of WH a little while ago, and this is what I came up with. Picture this. <br><br>You are an Aes Sedai - Green, I think. You have bonded an Asha'man, and come to have at least "fondness" for each other. There is another Ae...

In CoS Mat is remembering seeing Birgitte with the heroes of the Horn at Falme, and I noticed it also said: <br><br>"Artur Hawkwing himself led, tall and hook-nosed, and behind came the rest, little more than a hundred. So few, but all those the Whee...

Now this is no great theory on any of the major questions or mysteries of the series - this is just an observation: <br><br>In the night he escapes from Tar Valon Mat is attacked by people he thinks are footpads (only later he learns that there are n...

I had a vague suspicion, and after looking at the Karaethon Cycle i thought that i should post it. <br><br>What i have been thinking is that it does not say anywhere in the Karaethon Cycle that the Dragon Reborn has to die. It says the Dragon, but i ...

I know that many here do not believe that Shai'tan (the Dark One)can be killed, and in truth, I agree with you, to a certain extent. I agree with the fact that in no way can any of the major or minor characters destroy the Dark One, not even with th...

One of the characters that has always seemed a little off to me is Chel Vanin. Although RJ really doesn't give us any kind of proof for or against, I'm not sure that Vanin is what he appears to be for multiple reasons. <br><br>First, despite being...

I know that many people refer to Norse mythology for most of RJ's legends and names, but there are alot more than that. Noting the sources could help piece together the **end** of the story, and overall gives a more enjoyable reading. I have noted a ...

This isnt so much a theory as it is something that i have been wondering about for a while. The first think that made me wonder was the Black Ajah. <br><br>How do you join the Black Ajah? <br><br>Think about it. You cant go around asking Aes Sedai if...

This Ajah is most unattractively described Ajah in the books, they are cruel, fanatical, and even less smart then the other sisters. They are hated among the other sisters in the Tower, they have a very unattractive style of life, and they fulfill a ...

What I write is not so much a theory but a question referring to the nature of the three oaths. I know that we have heard the speel from every Aes Sedai that has opened their mouths in the books about there inability to attack people and all that stu...

I'm new to this page, so if this has already been dealt with then sorry... <br><br>OK, the dark one's servants can at times tap into his power, which they call the 'true power' (and I think it was for this that Mierin and co first made the bore). Th...

The definition of Stasis is an abnormal state in which the normal flow of a liquid (such as blood) is slowed or stopped. It is also described as inactivity <br><br>I think the stasis box was created with the one power and that it allows time to flow...
