I asked what happened to [Sheriam’s] Warder at Elf Fantasy, and got a RAFO, as I’d pretty much expected, but I had to try :) I asked “I know this is probably going to be a RAFO, but I really wonder if you forgot about him.” RJ did laugh and almost seemed to hesitate as he answered, but I don’t know if that meant that he did forget about that one small appearance in The Fires of Heaven when he wrote the Path of Daggers scene, or maybe it was because I admitted I kinda expected RAFO, or what.
There is one thing I learned from RJ’s tour in the Netherlands. I never believed Sheriam was a Black by choice, but I used to consider her being turned to the Shadow as a valid option. Perhaps that would leave her not completely willing to find out as much as she could (letting Siuan do a lot of the work). Also, since she was the one who told Egwene about the turning being possible, she would be a prime candidate plot-wise. Yet one question asked at an online chat held while he was here…Unless RJ is really trying to throw us off (which is possible ::grin::), this means that he hasn’t used it yet, not turning anyone ‘off-screen’. For now, I’m convinced Sheriam isn’t a Black at all—voluntary or involuntary. :)
