I'm afraid I have to warn you that Rhythm of War is one of my least favourite Sanderson books :look: I found it way too technical and most of it is setup for the next book, which obviously haven't happened yet. Something big happens in the middle, then the rest of the book is stalling for time...
Yeah, the way Moiraine just shows up towards the end there is a bit strange. Then again, she probably had a bit of a journey, since she couldn't use Portal Stones the way Rand & co did... I don't remember exactly where Vandene and Adealas lived, but probably closer to TarValon than Falme...
Lanfear is sort of a wild card among the Forsaken. She doesn't care about anyone or anything other than herself. Even her loyalty to the Dark One is low. That is one aspect of Lanfear that I felt the Prime show really was able to highlight. She only cares about getting Lews Therin. That is her...
Quotes like that, plus all the Foreshadowing in the first books, is what makes me certain that RJ had most of the main plotpoints for the main characters made clear before he published the first book...
I've always wanted to go to Leeds :) My dad has been a fan of Leeds United since they won the League (so about 50 years now ;) ) and has been there many times, but I haven't been yet.
And any place in the UK will have several historic sites to explore :)
Yes, I've met some people who had to have a real fight with their doctors, not just to be taken seriously, but to make the doctor understand that they are in pain.
One of my best friends was told for years that she had a mental illness. She probably have that too. But it took them years to...
I think Rand also got a glimpse of that when he has that last vision in Rhuidean, and hears how the Eye was created, by doing something like what Rand was doing, only on a smaller scale.
Yes, that chapter might look a bit boring and strange on first read through, but when you know more about the events that are referred to, it becomes so entertaining, and also a bit sad :(
It also shows that RJ had already created much of Moiraine's and Lan's backstory already, despite New...
Yeah, Prednisone is a life-saver, but it also ruins your body in many irreparable ways. Even if I could miraculously stop taking Prednisone today (not a good idea) my body wouldn't return to "normal".
I'm glad you were able to save your eye, btw. That sounds really scary. :hug
I also have a rare disease This one My rashes aren't nearly as bad as those pictures show, but most of the rest fit.
I also had the joy of it mostly affecting my lungs, so it causes my lungs to slowly deteriorate. When I got the diagnosis in 2011, they were already at 40% capacity. Now they are...
I agree with most of what you said. I am also not really a fan of early books Egwene, but I love her as the Amyrlin. I won't spoil anything, but I suspect you will like her more and more as you read on ;)
As for Perrin, I'm afraid that will only get worse :(
The Aes Sedai in Seanchan, the ones who made the a'dam wasn't bound my the oaths. That is purely a Tar Valon thing, not something others do.
And as mentioned above, Aes Sedai who are made into damane cannot be used in battle. Nor can they lie, as Suroth tested on "Pura" by punishing her when...
