hat's Up With The Ugly Statements

by Young Bull: 1998-09-22 | Not yet rated

Before Winter's Heart - Archive Only: Is Olver Gaidal Cain?

This refers to the point that people are saying that Giadal is ugly (mostly discussed at the bottom). Their claim is that Nynaeve says that he is the ugliest man she ever saw. I didn't find this in the books when I quickly looked for it. But I did find in the glossary of TFoH, under Gaidal's entry it states that he is as handsome as Birgitte is beautiful. Anyone have the exact reference for the Nynaeve quote? Which one is it, handsome or ugly? If he is handsome this would invalidate the "Olver is ugly, Giadal is ugly" argument. Possibly people are getting Uno and Gaidal mixed up when they refer to the Nynaeve quote. I do believe that she states a similar opinion about Uno but again I couldn't find it in my quick search.

YB, as far as I remember, Nynaeve makes the ugly comment about Uno and I thought Birgitte or someone telling a story about them said that Gaidal is always the ugliest man alive...does anyone have these quotes?
