Interview #605: Driving Mr. Sanderson - Terez, Entry #9

Terez (herid)

What exactly did Graendal see when Aran’gar put Compulsion on Ramshalan?

Brandon Sanderson

She doesn’t see it. We talked about this in editing when we were looking at it. It’s Graendal’s viewpoint; she’s summarizing; she doesn’t actually see it. We actually didn’t change it, because I just thought that was, ‘That’s what’s going on; it’s in her viewpoint; she doesn’t see the weaves.’ So, that isn’t an error. Maybe it’s not the clearest writing around, but I felt it was sufficiently clear when I looked at the passage. It got flagged by Maria.

Maria Simons

Actually, we did asked for this to be changed for e- and future editions. It should now read “Aran’gar shrugged, but focused as if laying down a thick and complex Compulsion on the unfortunate Ramshalan’s mind.” The answer is the same, though, really; she saw nothing.
