anfear and Egwene

Previous Categories: Miscellaneous

You said that you belive that there is a connection between Lanfear and Egwene, and I think I have it. As you should know as the wheel turns and with each turn it is slightly different each time. Brigette said that she and Cain had been spun out of the web thousands of times, each time a little diferent. Now to the Egwene conection to Lanfear is Rand. or the Soal of the Dragon, also known a Lews Therin. Lews Therin in the second age was in love with a dark haired powerfull channler(Lanfear), then as Lanfear thirsted for more control he became atracted to Illeya, a golden hair beauty. Now in the Third age the Soal Of the Dragon(Rand) was in love with a dark haired person that could channel(Egwene) and as she wanted more power(truth be told I think she is a little power hungry) he became atrackted to a golden haired beauty(Elaine). I hope you see the connection. of coure the differences are blaring, like Egwene is not Evil like Lanfear, and Rand is in love with 3 people, yet! i explaned it so you can see how the story is bacically the same.

That also brings me to another theory. I belive that Perrin and Mat may have the ability to channel, as you know Males cant sense it in other males. And if you read The Eye of the World you will see that they all( Rand, Mat and Perrin) shiver when they belive Moiraine is channeling, and even in the later books they all get a chill when near a Aes'sedai when she is channeling(i believe the cold shiver Mat has when from his medallion when it protects him is not totaly the medallion). Now another reson I belive that is the connection from age to age, I have shown that i think that in a way Egwene is a repesentation of Lanfear, and so I think Perrin is a repesentaion of Sammael. Both are blocky Men with beards, and Sammael fought at The Dragons side as Perrin does now. Another thing to make me belive that is in the Crown of swords Rand remembers that Sammael is best when he was on the defensive, and the connection to Perrin is that Perrin finally started to be a important figure when he was defending his Home.

Yet another connection is Rand thinking that Sammael with fight hard for any claim he has,,no matter how weak, and Perrin went home after being away for so long that it did not seem to be his home. Any connection to Mat in the second age I cannot find.

You brought up an interesting idea...maybe we can find all of Lews Therin's friends in Rand's friends.
