Of course, he will have no say what the order is or for how many nights he is with each lady. I can just see the little schedule in a neat, firm hand, in a diary calendar. It will be very orderly. <br /><br />I agree that Sammael is just using the Shaido to wreak havoc. So like the man. But, really, with Sevanna in charge, could he really get them to reliably do anything else? Nope. <br /><br />I like your guess that Mistress Anan may be a stilled former Aes Sedai. I had not thought of this, but it might explain a lot. nrlymrtlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00572346310916207565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3936635192759786622.post-66298972506886009082014-01-28T16:59:13.970-05:002014-01-28T16:59:13.970-05:00I also like Setalle being all protective of Mat (a...I also like Setalle being all protective of Mat (as if he needs it!) . . .

I like her no-nonsense attitude and, while it almost seems not in keeping with that, I like the fact that she's so partial to Mat. Makes me like her even more. Good point about the storm being Lan on his way. I never thought of that. I can tell you it's not entirely that, but he definitely could be a contributing factor! :DLiesel K.

...Oh crumbs . . . I hate to be a disappointment! :D<br /><br />So she is the "one who is no longer"? Interesting, as I had assumed that meant the gholam. I seem to remember someone talking about the ter'angreal being studied back in Book 3 perhaps, possibly Verin, when the super girls were given a list of those stolen by the Black Ajah. I think it mentions a sister being burned out there. Of course, I might be misremembering - there are so many details in this series that I suspect that I will need to reread it many times to catch most of them.<br /><br />Good old Mat: doing what is necessary without even knowing!

I am surprised to have to announce that it is not. :D<br /><br />However, very well done on number five. Yes, the Kin is almost certainly the treasure, and they will be put to good use. And though it's never 100% confirmed, the major theory is that Setalle Anan was an Aes Sedai who was burned out in an accident. I believe she studied ter'angreal. That story is mentioned in an off-handed way somewhere else in the series. It's a good example of the kind of things you can find out if you're very attentive.<br /><br />Since she can't channel, she's not actually part of the Kin, but has some kind of vaguely defined privileged outsider status. She is the one who is no longer… Aes Sedai.<br /><br />And of course, it was Mat who picked out her inn at random back in book six. All the while the girls have been debating letting him do his ta'veren thing, he's already been at it!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17109803991051330140noreply@blogger.com
