Do the snake men that Mat encounters in the twisted red doorframe in TSR have the same ability as Min (or min has the same ability as them)?

It says, (but I can't quote cause I don't have the books here), that they looked above Mat's head before they answered his questions.  I believe that Min also looks above people's heads.

I don't think this is the case, I cannot really elaborate but I don't think they actually see anything. Also if you remember the "foxes" they seem to breathe deeply as if to draw in his Aura for want of a better word.

Q: Also, is there any relation between what the Aelfinn do and Min's ability?

 

A:No, there is no connection between what the Aelfinn do and what Min does.

Pretty straightforward.  Jordan says no.

Thought to be fair Robert, I too thought there was a connection between Min and the Aelfinn until RJ clarified it. The similarities are there, irrespective if they were actually correct.

I didn't say "That's a dumb question."

 

I just provided the answer ...

Oh, i misread the 'pretty straightforward'. Sorry.

No worries, mate.  Its my comeuppance for being an argumentative bastard.  ;D

So Min isnt part Aelfinn then? ;)

I never made that connection-shows how much attention I pay!-I just assumed they looked over Matts head to avoid looking him in the eye or something
