Mad World

Male channelers as a whole usually are much stronger in the amount of power that they can hold than female channelers of comparable level (in much the same way men are generally stronger in their muscles than women) but the female can compensate this lack of brute force with far more dexterity. So in all the things that only rough power is not needed, the strongest female channelers can accomplish with the One Power, exactly the same as the strongest male.

An advantage of the female is also that only a woman can start the link for a circle, while men cannot link to form a circle of multiple channelers working together without a woman's aid. Women are more dexterous in the actual weaving of the flows, and have the advantage of linking, but cannot increase a circle beyond thirteen without the inclusion of men.

When a male channeler and a female channeler work together they are much stronger than many of the same gender, it is said that this is caused by saidin and saidar resonating, which means that the two Powers are working better together.

Wilders

A wilder is a collective term for women who have learned to channel the One Power on their own, without formal education or particular skill. It can be a derogatory term, especially when used by certain Aes Sedai who went to the White Tower to train, although at other times it is simply used as a descriptor. The term has not been used for men in living memory, as all men who can channel have been doomed to go insane from the taint on saidin, obviating any need for a formal instruction program, until recently.

Women who can channel fall into two categories; women who can be taught, and a far smaller group of women with the spark who will start to touch the saidar instinctively, whether they want to or not. Those of the latter group who survive this learning curve, approximately one in four, are called "wilders" if they do not seek out training once they discover what is happening.

Lan Mandragoran was the real hero of that story.

Why?

Also, I'm not sure you realize that saidin was cleansed by rand (with the help of nynaeve), at quite the cost btw.

You should really read the story.

Just read the series, you won't be able to put it down (I averaged 200 pages a day once I got into it) and Brandon Sanderson did a tolerable job finishing the series.

That was me, with the Potter series. I read the first 3, in 3 days, home on Christmas break.

Rarely have I had a better time reading. I don't care what people say.

Fantastic series.

Also, if you want a good laugh, think about the timing of my first post here and what else happened a couple days ago.

"You get a vote!"

"Of four who have the inborn ability that you [Nynaeve] and Egwene have, three die if we do not find them and train them.

It is not as horrible a death as the men die, but neither is it pretty, if any death can be called so. Convulsions. Screaming. It takes days, and once it begins, there is nothing that can be done to stop it, not by all the Aes Sedai in Tar Valon together."

The blue aes sedai were awesome imo.

Have a good day.

I'm looking forward to reading them. Thanks for the links. I saw you post them in a different thread. I sat on them, for days.

Timing is everything.

Agreed.

You've done more for me than you'll ever know.

Greetings Seer,
How goes the latest strain of 'insight triple seven' otherwise known as ITS. The latest in home grown herbal products from the Omega Wily production house.

Chris

Things are well enough. Enjoying seeing how all these things are fitting together, now that I have time to look.

The Ta'veren angle makes sense to me, and has since when another mentioned it.


Trying to get a bunch of cleaning done and may watch something light-hearted here shortly.

Maybe Gravity Falls again. Super clever show.


Have you seen it?

I have not seen the show now but Darrah has written about it a couple of times from memory. I might have to check it out after all. I was reading that in some places a fair bit of the show is censored and even a character was removed so the people watching the show, see a very different version of it.

^^

Anyone else get a creepy feeling up the back of their neck while they watched these.. with the whole 'wall and migrant caravan' thing currently happening?

I know I did.

Nice!

YouTube suggestion yesterday. Thought it went perfectly.

Wilders---Wildlings

Night King--Fremen?

Doesn't Paul become a terrible tyrant that commits genocide and war on several planets?

Return of the Lich King?

The Night King.

Blue within blue eyes.

It's up to his son, Leto to set it right. By merging with the worm.

"The bottom line of the Dune trilogy is: beware of heroes. Much better rely on your own judgment, and your own mistakes."

is what came across..
