If cuendillar is brought into Tel’aran’rhiod , can it be destroyed in a nightmare (the same way Perrin destroyed the dreamspike)?
If you were strong enough in Tel’aran’rhiod , you could probably force it to break, but it would remanifest itself pretty quickly. (He compared it to how Perrin was able to force Hopper back together for a moment, but no more—it snapped back to “reality” pretty fast.) RJ was pretty strong on this point—it’s really, really hard to destroy the stuff. Even an opening gateway wouldn’t do it—either the edge would push the cuendillar object out of the way, or the object would block the gateway from opening or closing. (You could actually block a gateway open by sticking a piece of cuendillar in it.) RJ was firm: there are only two ways for cuendillar to be destroyed: the Pattern unraveling, and… one other thing. (From the way he said “one other thing” I think we’ll be learning about it in A Memory of Light . He enjoyed that question too.)
Brandon said in another interview that the second way to destroy cuendillar is with the True Power.
