Interview #588: Goodreads ToM Fantasy Book Club Q&A with Brandon Sanderson, Entry #20

Stublore

On a slightly related note, the Chosen had protection from the taint, was this something unique to the Chosen (it occurs to me actually, that said protection could only have been given AFTER they were freed from the Bore, as such a precaution would have not been needed before Lewis Therin sealed the Bore), or would all Darkfriends have such protection?

To answer my own question, I’d guess it was unique, else male Darkfriend channelers would have been at a huge advantage after the Breaking.

Brandon Sanderson

All Darkfriends do not have such protection.

Which makes me wonder, if such protection could not be conferred after the Breaking was it because the Dark One was imprisoned and so could have less effect on the world, or was it something that needed to be done at Shayol Ghul?

Brandon Sanderson

RAFO.
