I chose for Nynaeve the Aes Sedai, for the things she did in book 9 (you who've read it know what I mean, you who don't, go and read it!) were way cool!  |

I haven't voted yet, because I really don't know. I like Nynaeve. Whether she is Wisdom or Accepted or Aes Sedai doesn't matter to me. She rulez no matter what!  |

I voted for Aes sedai, because I somehow like the later books better. But I also like her as wisdom and accepted:))))

when she was wisdom she hated channeling and wanted to give revenge on moir.
Spoilers for book 5-10
when she was AS i felt like she to quote caddy 'threw her brain out the window for a man.' however what she did with rand in book 9 was still pretty cool. but in book 8 she and lan annoyed me alot, even though we dont hear any plotlines of her. but in book 9 she was cool book 8 i dindn't like what she was doing she was still pretty freaked out about her and lan, in book 10 well ther was 2 paragraphs of her bouncing on a bench and i cant say much more about book 10. book 7 was cool with mashiara and bosing the kin around. despite all of this my favorite time was her in tFoH because her and valan luca was SO FUNNY!
End of spoilers

You have to take her as an Aes Sedai...
Wisdom's have a small village view of the world...
Nynaeve has become a shaker of the world, and a Wisdom does not have the breadth of vision that an Aes Sedai has...
It is a matter of Nynaeve's growth as a grown woman...
She mentioned it herself in {tFoH} when she was thinking about being a grown woman and chasing after the Black Ajah... It was freightning but satisfying...
She has been to the Blight... She has fought Trollics... She has been to Tear, and Tanchico, and Ebou Dar, and Caemlyn and Far Madding....and trained in the WT
A Wisdom would never do any of these things..

Nynaeve is Nynaeve, no matter how you look at her. I liked her as Wisdom, Accepted, and I still love her as Aes Sedai. They are simply stages signifying her growth, maturity, and experience in the world. I mean, c'mon...how could you NOT love her no matter what? ;DTEXT

Aes Sedai. As Wisdom, she hadn't really grown into herself, and as Accepted, people looked down on her (which bothers me; no one must look down!).

But I kinda like the way people are when they're looked down at ...they fight harder.

both Wisdom and As had there pros and cons: when she was wisdom, she was a far stronger character than her AS-ness, less indecisive etc. But she didn't know about the whole channelling lark as AS she feels undemined too much (and IS undermined by Egwene). Plus, AS hood has too mnay strictures. But she knows about channelling and she's become worldly-wise. I think the coolest thing for N would be if she was some type of free lance channeler, out from under Egwenes thumb (please?) but with access to the tower library  |

Nynaeve is a younger Cadsuane...she will not stay in the Tower but will rebuild Malkier and be an "Aes Sedai" Queen...and probably the greatest Aes Sedai of the New Age...

I think the coolest thing for N would be if she was some type of free lance channeler, out from under Egwenes thumb (please?) but with access to the tower library Out of destruction and turmoil comes even greater strength... I was not very proud of Egwene in TFOH...because see seemed to be badgering Nynaeve all the time... Nynaeve became Wisdom a little young and tended to do the same thing to others that Egwene did to her... I feel that what has happened to Nynaeve was a grinding stone to hone and sharpen her...she must control her temper and see the larger picture...I thought that one of the crowning moments in the books was when she allowed the husband she loves to leave her and go to the Blight...she showed more maturity in {The Knife Of Dreams} than most of the Aes Sedai have shown...her tutilage under Cadsuane is showing... I feel the same about Egwene in the same book...she is showing more maturity under great pain and hardship than 90% of the Aes Sedai... In a way Nynaeve is the female equivelent of Rand... She is having more to do with fighting the Shadow than Egwene is...she is fighting side by side with Rand while Egwene is fighting a side battle for the White Tower... |
