Rand Skywalker?

I have a simple question.

 

who killed asmo?

 

Luckers. Everyone knows that.

Are we sure the Seanchan beasties aren't shadowspawn?

 

I know the first reaction is ACK SHADOWSPAWN.  And then someone familiar with Seanchan are like no, WORSE, Seanchan! 

 

But, i have to wonder, is it possible that the critters are shadowspawn, just domesticated?

 

We know that the Seanchan exotics are from another world accessed via portal stone. So, I tend to think they aren't Shadowspawn, but I suppose they could technically be other world Shadowspawn.

The Seanchan section in the Wheel of Time companion book states that the original inhabitants of the Seanchan isles brought the grolm, lopar, raken and others from other worlds via portal stones in order to eradicate all of the shadowspawn in their lands. This is why the Seanchan think Trollocs are fairy tales.
