n Forsaken Reborn, and Aelfinn

Before Winter's Heart - Archive Only: Miscellaneous Theories

Since 'LoC' four new forsaken figures have appeared, and some doubt reigns over who is who. It isn't that hard to figure out, Osan'gar=Aginor. During LoC, Osan'gar comments on how he made the Trollocs. This is attributed to Aginor in theWorld of Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time.

Next, in the Wheel of Time game by Legends, I am sure it states that Ishamael used the True Source exessively, resulting in saa. Suprise, suprise, so does Moridin. Also, who better for Nae'blis then the guy who
a) is nearly as strong as Rand in the Power.
b) caused the downfall of Hawkwing.
c) probably sparked the Trolloc Wars.I think that's all the proof I need.

Next, we have Aran'gar, who was obviously a male before. We have two male forsaken still dead at this point- Balthamel and Asmodean. Since the Dark One has stated that Asmodean will not be resurrected, that leaves Balthamel.

The last Forsaken reborn is Cyndane. From the text of PoD, we can assimilate that Cyndane was a female before death. The only female Forsaken to have fallen so far is Lanfear(possibly). Thus, Cyndane=Lanfear. This means that either Moiraine killed her (Moiraine? Kill Lanfear? I think not!), or the enigmatic Aelfinn did. Since we basically know Moiraine is coming back, that means that the Aelfinn killed only Lanfear. We can guess from here that either Lanfear made requests and paid with her life, and it is highly unlikely that Lanfear would be that...dumb, then the Aelfinn killed her deliberately, because she was a Forsaken! This suggests they're on Rand's side, and may even fight for Rand in the Last Battle. But this is spectulation, notlogic.
