Just a random thought, Moiraine, Lan, the Aes Sedai and Rand constantly say that nothing could break cuendillar. Not even balefire can harm the seals, instead, the One Power strengthens them. <br><br>What no one considers is the True Power. This migh...

There is one thing about the Heroes of the Horn that makes me wonder: the leader of the pack is Arthur Hawkwing. Hawkwing sees Rand and remarks that he hasn't seen 'Lews Therin' for a while, and then looks at Perrin and says something like there mig...

Hi everybody. <br><br>I'm rereading the whole series for like the zillionth time (hope to finish JUST before book 10 :-) ). Point is, I came across some passages in TSR about Alanna. Everybody now sort of agrees that Alanna is no darkfriend because o...

This is more of an FYI than a theory. I'm quoting from The Creators interview on CNN , Dec 12,2000. <br><br> <br><br>Question from Arsolos: It has been reported that you have confirmed that Sammael died at the end of Crown of Swords. Could you confir...

This is a post I put up on the boards: <br><br>What if Moghedien also ripped Gaidal Cain from the wheel? If she did it to Birgitte, why not to him also? In the last fight with Birgitte, before being captured by Nynaeve, Moggy turned Birgitte into a c...

Well, This is the first time i've posted a theory, so bear with me. It is not fully fleshed out. I began working on this with the "clear away the rubble" comment. <br><br>In various mythos there is an evil being which is bound outside of time. (i.e. ...

Alright, mashadar ate sammael's soul. Here's a thought, though, what happened to Mashadar when Rand and Nynaeve turned Shadar Logoth into a big black hole in the ground? Did mashadar get destroyed along with it? If this is the case, what happened ...

Creation of the Portal Stones <br><br>Hello everybody, this is just something I noticed while re-reading Tamyrlin's “Verin and the Third Constant” theory. It's said on more than one occasion in the series that the Aes Sedai in the Age of Legends knew...

Rands dizziness when he embraces saidin is somewhat of a mystery. There is no obvious indication about where it came from. It just randomly showed up. I just accepted this. While re-reading The Great Hunt, I noticed somthing. (ch6 p87) Rand says "Sha...

More of a question then a theory... <br><br>Ok so given that you buy into the idea that the taint is gone and most people do, let's say that a strike at shayol ghul is done again and the DO performs another counterstroke.... <br><br>Well now you have...

Herid Fel, Shadar Logoth, Sammael <br><br>I was just re-reading the “Liah and Shadar Logoth” part from the theory archive, and something occurred to me. First of all, let me say I am a strong supporter of the theory that Sammael set up the whole thin...

"The seals that hold back night shall weaken, <br><br>and in the heart of winter shall winter's heart be born <br><br>amid the wailing of lamentations and the gnashing of teeth, <br><br>for winter's heart shall ride a black horse, <br><br>and the nam...

Ok... first time submitting so bear with me. I am re-reading the series for the second time and hope to finish before that magical date of Jan 7th. But as I read the final battle between Rand and Ravhin in TFOH something stuck me as little weird. Ran...

In the Shadow Rising, Rand goes into the ter'angreal to become a clan chief (duh.) While he is an Aiel in the age of legends, he witnesses a sort of growthdance, involving green men, ogier, and Aiel. the Aiel are singing a song (the ogier are too, ...

"(...)Captain Musenge ordered only two to accompany her on deck, where two dozen Ogier Gardeners in the red-and-green made a line to either seide of the doorway, great black-tasseled axes upright in front of them and grim eyes watching for any danger...

Although this is little more than a passing observation, really, I have found it curious that throughout the series, RJ has made it very clear that Aes Sedai have the "ageless" look associated with the Oath Rod while those channelers without the Thre...

Ok... This all started when I was looking back through TSR for Cain proofs and I came across something very strange to me. <br><br>In Chapter52, Need, on page 863 in paperback Nynaeve is talking to Bridgette when Cain comes along then they begin to t...

This is my first time posting, and it is unfortunate that such an idle thought is the first thing to come from me. <br><br>Anath, (read Semirhage) was appointed as Tuon's...whatever...by the Empress herself. I personally prefer the thought that the ...

Here is my little theory regarding the TP. <br><br>I think it is the ability to channel Both saidar and saidin at the same time...hence the name true power b4 it was split between males and females...that is why the Gholam could almost sense it..lik...

<br>Just to open up a discussion; is anybody any further than I am on Moridin's comment that he "plays both sides of the board"? He says this somewhere in I think aCoS or PoD or something. Most will remember more specifically than I do anyway. Many p...
