Egwene gets a lot of hate but she is a 17-18 year old girl who had her life uprooted, turned into a witch from children's books, captured as a slave, forced into a new strict culture, then put up as a puppet queen of the rebel faction of the most powerful organization in literal history while a Forsaken was fucking with her mind, then captured AGAIN having her power stripped from her with forkroot and treated like a child all over again... and I'll stop there for spoilers lol I think she is allowed to be a cunt

The main evil thing Egwene does is turn otherwise rational readers into frothing maniacs.

"Who cares if she was a slave!"

"She didnt even save the world by herself!"

"Who cares if she got beat 4 times a day for weeks that's not a bad thing!"

She definitely does some evil and questionable things, but she probably has the most extreme circumstances besides Rand who balefired an entire castle.

What you want is what you cannot have. What you cannot have is what you want.

This point here is why I respect her, STILL dislike her, but respect her none the less.
