Discussion:
Black Ajah 3 Oaths
(too old to reply)

Are there any ideas about what the three oaths placed on the black
ajah sisters are? There is most likely an oath against betraying
another BA sister or any BA plans, but what could the other 2 be?

Some possibilities:

-To do anything in your power to avoid being discovered yourself
-Not to betray anything that could lead to another BA being
discovered.
-To obey those DF's placed above you (Well, obey any direct orders,
since Liandrin was able to try to attack Moghedien)

Any other ideas? I've been trying to think this out from the
Forsaken/DO's perspective; if I had a secret society of evil
channelers and I wanted to keep them secret and under my thumb, what
sort of oaths would I make them take?

This could well constitute 2 of the 3 - they don't have to be the same oath.

Not possible - this would prevent torturing a Black sister into
forswearing the Black oaths and reswearing the First when it's been made
quite clear to her that the point is to prove she's Black. But that works.

Falls under not betraying the BA.

Unlikely - Moggy's behavior with Liandrin's thirteen doesn't make sense
if she could just give them orders and be sure they'd be obeyed. It
would also be out of the Dark's normal SOP - obedience is enforced by
fear and threats of retribution. And doesn't Liandrin try to talk at
least one of the others into explicit disobedience of Moggy's orders?

There's a reasonable section in the FAQ on this - not terribly
extensive, but some ideas that make sense.

On another note, it seems rather stupid of the BA Hunters not to have
explicitly asked this question. Seems like a rather obvious and useful
thing for them to know.

I suspect them of having efficiently asked this off stage.

They probably have. I'm betting they just did so off-screen.

I'm just thinking that seems sufficently important and obvious Jordan
would've had them do it on-screen. Unless he's deliberately hiding it
from us for no apparent reason (possible).

Which would then fall under the RAFO scenario.

Since they are able to lie, but there is the danger of being caught at it,
it seems to me that they might have modified the original oath(s) such that
they must keep them except under certain circumstances, e.g. I will speak no
word that is not true unless I think the word "strawberries". This would
prevent accidental slips.

Wouldn't that mean that you're in trouble with some of the
following statements?

"Strawberries are red"
"Strawberries are green"
"Strawberries are yellow"
"Strawberries are brown"

So after all these posts, here I sit wondering how an Aes Sedai would use
the One Power to make deserts. And what about the Dark One; shouldn't he
have any? Imagine Meseanna (sp?) making a creme brule using the True Power,
and if the DO not liking it and balefiring it out of existance. Oh, my mind
boggles. What is Randland coming to.

BTW, anyone know the recipe for a Two-Rivers Upside Down Cake?

Heh.

Strangely enough I used to know a guy who was the bassist for the
Strawbery Alarm Clock. He took the money, quit the band, and bought a
record store I spent a lot of money at during the 70s.

He probable would have been pleased to know then, that they were my friend's
favorite band. Then again, this guy really liked the music group
"H.P.Lovcecraft" -- another obscure psychedelic group -- and he also
performed in cabaret shows around New York.

Has it been stated anywhere that there are definitely 3 Black Ajah oaths?
Why not four, or six, or as many as they need?

Yes, they replaced their oaths with "a new trinity"

Page 601 0f The Gathering Storm: But Black Ajah member Verin only told Egwene
one oath: "I swear not to betray the Great Lord, to keep my secrets until the
hour of my death". Why didn't she quote the other two oaths?

Page 601: Verin says that members of the BA can double cross other Darkfriends
or even turn against the Chosen, as selfishness must be preserved. BAs are
only prohibited from betraying the Great Lord of the Dark or betraying the BA
to outsiders.

How did Verin find herself in a situation in which she had to join the BA? How
was it that she had promised to take the oaths to the DO when she had had no
desire to do so?

Why just three? IIRC, when they had the first BA AS forswear all her
oaths, her pain from doing so was purportedly equivalent to that which
could be expected from removing a great many oaths, not just three.
(from the POV of the AS who was having them forswear their oaths.)

Because the books say just three. Pay attention - someone's already quoted
chapter and verse in this thread.

Perhaps it's exponential.

That was written and posted after I made my reply, but due to the
delay of google.com (which I must use at work), mine *posted* after.
But, now I see clearly that "a new trinity" would of course imply
three. That is, of course, if the "a new trinity" quote is a BA
thinking it, rather than someone else. (for example, was it the POV of
the women looking for BA with the oath rod?)

I was attempting to paraphrase. Can anyone help with the quote from
when they discover the first BA with the oath rod? My books are about
9 hours away right now....

It was Galina Casban, the Head of the Red Ajah... and a Darkfriend and
Black Ajah to boot.
