Interview #716: Twitter 2012 (WoT), Entry #6

Andrew Harrington (23 January 2012)

How do the a’dam circumvent the Aes Sedai oaths to force them to channel against non-Shadow, i.e. Whitecloaks?

Brandon Sanderson (23 January 2012)

I don’t think the a’dam can. However, if the Aes Sedai believes that the person is a Darkfriend, they can channel against them.

BRANDON SANDERSON

So conditioning their mind right, can do it. (The oaths have a provision for Darkfriends, though some editions left this out .)
