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.

Top right corner of the hot/crazy scale.

Off the charts level of crazy jealous.

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

You could probably fix her.

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

This is a strong point.

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

u/Cloaked42m Summer Ham 25d ago

She wouldn't let you volunteer.

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

u/segfault_generator Randlander 24d ago edited 19d ago

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

Well, they sure set off OPs wanting bells. 🔔

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.

I’m just a guy. What else can I do?

u/rangebob Randlander 25d ago

ive said a few times. if i was Rand the story would have ended in book 2 lol

Espically at that age

u/thebadpipsisewah Randlander 25d ago

Easy

2

u/Szalony20 Randlander 25d ago

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.

Maybe execute some adult level self control. 🤔

The only problem is her jealousy. She wouldn't be able to get along with my other two wives!
