There's some timing for you. We were just talking about sinking boats and killing people on them , and I got to this in book 10. A half dozen ships making a break for Tar Valon's harbor during the siege. Egwene watching:
True, from where she sat her horse, she could have set fire to every one of those ships, or simply cut through their hulls and let them sink.... Yet doing so surely meant some of those aboard would drown... Even one death would make what she did using the Power as a weapon.
She hasn't taken the Oaths, but was trying to live by them. But she spells out the kind of details we discussed for those who have taken the Oaths:
A sister who had sworn on the Oath Rod would not be able to make herself set those weaves, perhaps not even to form them, unless she could convince herself she was in immediate danger from the ships.
Yeah, agree 100% here for the books. The show, however, has focused more on Rand being Lews than the books did at the beginning iirc. Ishamael and Lanfear are constantly referencing Lews in their conversations with Rand. In ep7 I think there's even a flashback where Lews calls himself an Aes Sedai. I feel like the show
tried/
trying to setup Rand as a male Aes Sedai soon.
I had a bigger issue with Egwene collaring Renna. Not sure they can explain that one out.
