oreanin Nedeal

by Keith Wee: 1998-09-07 | Not yet rated

Before Winter's Heart - Archive Only: What is Verin's 70 Year Plan?

Possible ways Verin or Cadsuane could be Coreanin Nedeal (who incidentally lived 500 over years ago and therefore was after the War of the Hundred years) or an Aes Sedai from the Age of legends:

1) Vacoules - ACOS Moggy states time flows differently in there and that she could emerge into a world hundreds of years later in which the dark one might have won

Verin might also have been a confidante of Gitara Moroso being both roughly Aes sedai in the same period in the tower ie. over 180-220 years old.

But how then would they have gotten the other name? Just showed up at the White Tower with a differnent name after all of the Aes Sedai that knew her as Coreanin had died?

I'm sorry if I did not make myself clear in my previous submission.

Firstly I was simply stating a possible method of how Verin can be Coreanin or any Aes Sedai from the Age of Legends and what might be Verin's motive or the cause she is working toward - that is helping the Dragon Reborn for Gitara Moroso. They are seperate theories.

Secondly, I think it is possible for Coreanin, after Dreaming of the Dragon being reborn in the future, to find a Vacoule (maybe resulting from her research into areas associated with tel'aran'rhiod like portal stones), hiding in one and emerging into the world five hundred years down the road to bide her time, enter the tower or ask around to find the name and piece together the identity and background of an Aes Sedai who has retired and to assume that identity.Such patience is typical of the way Aes Sedai work.

Okay, I would then agree if she had dissappeared for that length of time that it would work because you can't know every single AS. And all of the Tower would have died by then. As I have said, it would be interesting to find out that any AS had done this to 'prolong' their life.
