Interview #2: Twitter 2009-2010 (WoT), Entry #27

yoniy0 (29 July 2010)

Did you consult Maria before deciding Egwene shall attempt to fall fleeing raken ? Would she be able to do so Bounded?

Brandon Sanderson (30 July 2010)

I’m a little confused at what you’re asking. Do you mean “Fell?” And what do you mean by Bounded?

yoniy0

Sorry. There has been some discussion around the Third Oath and Egwene attacking retreating raken

yoniy0

I was asking if you think she could have done the same now, after taking the Oaths (and whether you asked Maria to weigh in).

BRANDON SANDERSON

We did talk about this. I think it’s iffy. Depends on Egwene’s mindset. I don’t think most Aes Sedai could have done it.

BRANDON SANDERSON

In fact, it’s good her circle was with those who hadn’t taken the Oaths yet…

LUCKERS

I think Yoniy0 meant ‘would Egwene be able to kill (fell) fleeing to’raken were she bound by the Oaths?’

BRANDON SANDERSON

I don’t know that she would have been able to. Depends. The Oaths depend on how you view what you’re doing.

BRANDON SANDERSON

Elaida got around them (or to the side of them) by convincing herself Egwene was a Darkfriend.
