“When a woman says she will obey you, of her own will, it is time to sleep lightly and watch your back.” ~ Asmodean

"Even as she lashed out, the light of saidar surrounded the other woman, and pain enveloped Liandrin. She crumpled to the carpet, trying to howl, but agony beyond anything she had ever known silenced her gaping mouth. Her eyes were going to burst from her head; her skin was going to peel away in strips. For an eternity she thrashed, and when it vanished as suddenly as it had begun ..."

Poor Liandrin ... NOT😎

Why do I picture the anti-Gaston in my head when I read about Galad? Oh, I don't mean to be complimentary either. Of all the choices someone like him could have chosen he chose to become a whitecloak? Well, I guess Lord Douchebag it is.

Tel’aran’rhiod is way cool and Melaine putting Nynaeve in her proper place is even cooler:

“This had happened once before, and she had pried out of Egwene that this was how the Aiel dressed little girls.”

Well, at least she has two braids to tug on. If you know, you know. 😊

"Men and Maidens struggle against fate even when it is clear that the Pattern weaves on despite their struggles, but you are no longer Far Dareis Mai. You must learn to ride fate. Only by surrendering to the Pattern can you begin to have some control over the course of your own life. If you fight, the Pattern will still force you, and you will find only misery where you might have found contentment instead." ~ Bair
