Where are the Rhuidean relics?

[GrandpaG]

I searched for this topic because I was sure that it had been discussed many times before but I'm not finding it so I'm posting out of frustration.  Please indulge a feeble old brain.  Thanks.

 

After the Moraine/Lanfear battle, what happened to all of the Age of Legends relics that were in the wagon train?  I have guesses.  That's not what I seek.  If you know for sure, please let me know.  Thank you.

 

Love,

i remeber reading a post on it but not which post it was, i think it was on TGS spoiler board because back then when i saw it i wasnt visiting anywhere else here.

 

if IIRC from what was said they are in a warehouse somewhere heavily warded.

 

weather that right or wrong will take a wiser head than mine

Ten Four Eleanor... A warehouse in Cairhien. Luckers would have a quote I'm sure Gramps. There is an Ask a Question Get An Answer Thread in the spoiler board as well.

 

Ask A Simple Question, Get A Simple Answer Thread

 

and I believe that issue was addressed somewhere in the first 50 pages of the The Big Unnoticed Thing thread, not that you wanna go wadin' thru THAT felkakarb.

Week 3 Question: After Moiraine fought Lanfear in Cairhien, what happened to the wagons full of ter'angreal and such that came out of the Aiel Waste? Are they just in some storeroom there? And what happened to Moiraine's horse Aldieb?

 

Robert Jordan Answers: The ter'angreal and so forth that came from Rhuidean are still in Cairhien for the moment, warded by Rand so they aren't accessible to anyone but him. Aldieb is in the stables at the Sun Palace.

Whew!!!

 

That's a relief!!!

 

For as much importance as Moraine placed on those objects, I couldn't see them just sitting on their wagons at the docks waiting for lord knows who/whom to come along and help themselves.  Let's all hope that Rand's wards are affective.  Maybe he'll let Aviendha check them out to see what each one does?

 

Thank you!!!

I imagined they were in Cairhien and that they were warded.

In past threads, I speculated in a warehouse.

 

The items that were too big to fit on the carts, those are still in Rhuidean; the scene of the items' loading tells this.

 

[GrandpaG]

Moraine didn't have Aviendha's ability to identify what those items were made to do, right?  She took her best guess.  Except the door.  Did Rand put wards on the stuff left behind, too?  What if something that Moraine left behind as not important is really another Callandor or something?

The Glass Columns terangreal & Rhuidean's 3 Arches, I think those do not have wards.

The other terangreal left might have wards.

The scene tells that Moiraine would have took everything if she could; that implies that she saw the items as important.

there are a whole bunch of Aiel there. that gotta count for something

[GrandpaG]

Let's hope these Aiel don't fail the Aes Sedai.  Some of those objects could be very powerful even though Moraine didn't realize it.  Like maybe the oversize Frisbee-like discs that could really be flying saucers?  If the AOL Aes Sedai packed them into the wagons for safe keeping, they all MUST be valuable...IMO.

 

Does Rand even know about Aviendha's special Talent?

The current books do not tell.  I would guess that he does not know.
