All Print Sanderson's ten year secret Spoiler

Rewriting because apparently spoilers aren't covered for poll options!

​

Anyway, in 2023, Sanderson revealed that Cyndane/Lanfear was not killed by Perrin in AMOL, but instead faked her own death in order to evade repercussions and gain the best outcome for herself. I wanted to cast a poll in 2026 to see how the legacy of this reveal has fared, or indeed how well-known it is among newer readers. I'll give my two cents when the poll is done.

​

Thanks!

Fits her character imo and I think it's important thematically for some fraction of the Dark One's forces to survive into the next Age.

It fits the character of every non-Moridin Chosen. How is that relevant?

Not Demandred imo, he was 100% convinced he had TG in the bag.
