Interview #604: JordanCon 2011 - Terez, Entry #2

Ted Herman

When the Eelfinn told Mat, ‘Wise to ask for leavetaking, when you set no price’ etc., did they know he would be back?

Brandon Sanderson

The ‘Finns do not have a perfect vision of the future, but are capable of reading some things about it, and so I would say it’s likely they knew. They didn’t know everything, though.

Ted Herman

So, it’s…to the best of their knowledge, they couldn’t…

Brandon Sanderson

Yes. They sincerely tried to kill him, but they knew there was a strong possibility he’d be back.

Ted Herman

Did they know that his ashandarei was the answer to the leavetaking thing?

Brandon Sanderson

They knew what they were giving him. They were hoping he wouldn’t.

Ted Herman

Excellent. Thank you.
