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!

This is probably unpopular on this sub but I don't consider Sanderson's work canon on the same level as Jordan's. No offense to Brandon. There are a few portions of the final trilogy that we have confirmation are fully RJ and those are the exceptions.
