Bonding the Dark One, possibilities and consequences

[zilcho]

After some thinking I got this question which I couldn't resolve by arguing with myself so I bring it to the experts, would it be possible to bond the dark one? If the first is true then what would happen?

 

Could be a badass warder.

 

Is it possible that Rand somehow bond to the dark one drawing him out from whatever murky hole he was hiding in making him vurnable, either thrue becoming exposed in the pattern or thru Rand himself, could it be so that by bonding the Dark One and then dying Rand will take him down?

lol..interesting...

but i don't think so...

 

he is more of a force...and not a physical being....

so i'm not sure it would work...

 

and i don't think anyone would be able to control him even with the bond...

RJ was asked about the possibility of bonding a Fade once. While possible, it would not be advisable (probably not survivable). I would say that if you could bond Shai'tan, the attempt would kill you.

Bonding the Dark One would be the Holy Mother of All Bad Ideas.  That is one "little bundle" of emotions you do not want in your head. Assuming such a thing could be done and that you could survive, you'd probably become a drooling vegetable. If you were lucky. If unlucky, you might become Shadar Haran .25 :(
