Paradoxical

"No, child. There is one Creator, who exists everywhere at once for all of these worlds. In the same way, there is only one Dark One, who also exists in all of these worlds at once. If he is freed from the prison the Creator made in one world, he is freed on all. So long as he is kept prisoner in one, he remains imprisoned on all."

"That does not make sense," Egwene protested.

"Paradox, child. The Dark One is the embodiment of paradox and chaos, the destroyer of reason and logic, the breaker of balance, the unmaker of order."

~ page 239, The Dragon Reborn, Robert Jordan

Egwene is right - it doesn't make sense. So if the Dark One is imprisoned on one world but freed on another...and Verin Sadai drew several worlds, at that. Huh.

Luke, apparently, has read my entire freaking blog in what I assume is one sitting.

O.o...

But it's LONG!!!

Um, yeah, no duh, Steph.

I have "Maneater" turned on as I do my homework in hopes of getting it completely ingrained into my head. Why? I don't know.

Luke mentioned the movie "28 Days Later", and seeing as how I know nothing about any movies, I went to check it out.

I am NOT watching that, NEVER. Oooooh my gosh. NEVER.

Wouldn't you know. It's 11:50 and I'm not done my homework. I should go...

Thinking on it, I think...I suppose being a Myrddraal is rather fitting...though I should think that one of the Eyeless are by far more scarier.

I think that's poor grammar. More scarier. Ah well. G'night.

It is not that long and besides, I am used to going through long archives, I read web-comics (like an addict).
Ya, the dark one (or should I say DARK ONE) is confusing. He seems to almost be on par with the creator and can taint the source, but can't step outside of the pattern (time) or subvert balefire. He is like some kind of weird demigod. Although he can still do a lot with just his finger through the bore. I mean dark friends are everywhere.
I am not surprised that you can read so quickly, but I am that you have enough time to read that much.
You wouldn't like 28 days later. It has british zombies, except by zombie we mean OMG spry freaky raving mad zombies. So, ya it has some tense moments.
I think I'll start cycling through myrddraal synonyms

No offence Steph, but that's just another blog wit HIS name in it. And you don't believe me (or Kaeli) when we say their COULD be something brewing. What's the movie 28 Day's Later about anyway? And the thing at the begginging(sp?) made no sence
