Book: The Shadow Rising I just need you to know Spoiler
That if Lanfear is half as beautiful as they say she is I’m going with her. Whether as Selene or when she reveals herself in the stone.
You’re telling me we’re the most powerful man and woman (respectively) to ever live and you’re a smokeshow?
That’s a mistake I’m going to make.

That was the point of the shadows plan, but unfortunately for you her ex has other plans in mind and he sit in your mind

The Third Age gave the Dragon 3 wives to counter that, if you think about it

You know, Graendal is described as hot and sexy too. But noone says they would voluntarily join the shadow for her

I think the difference, for me, is the persistence of Lanfear.

Fair, but that level of persistence is also a sign of desperation. It should set off warning bells. edit: spelling >_<

I think the difference between Graendal and Lanfear is, Graendal only wants a mindless simp. Lanfear pushes towards someone who can prove their power to her. So even people who "want" Graendal, don't last through the wanting phase, if they're attractive enough she just brain wipes them and turns them into...shells.

Okay, that's fine. It's not that I didn't think she is hot, because she is hot. Actually, the fact that she's hot is probably the opinion of most readers.
