Looking back on one particular chapter... May I add very slightly.<br /><br />Morgase had always been described a good queen, but legendary? She is hardly what I would call the stuff of legends. She hasn't done anything that would earn her such a high praise, especially during the twilight days of her regime, where her actions should have painted her as a tyrant. Compulsion or no. Infamous would be the better word. <br /><br />But I digress.

This one, for instance, from Alliandre:<br /><br />it turns out that she's Morgase Trakand. Not just a queen—the Queen.

It won't be the first... Or tenth time. <br />And since when have Morgase and Elayne been considered legends.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
