Question about lifespan and Min

Featured Replies

Well, I was just wondering about this. Rand, Elayne and Avienda can all channel which means they have a lot longer lifespan that people who can't. So does Min get any kind of extended life, or does she just get the short end of the stick?

Well, if you think about it, Rand may be the one who gets the short end of the stick. Min may very well live past him, but yeah she'll be wrinkly.

Min's ability may prove to offer some sort of extended life span, and with the new healing those who cannot channel will probably start to live longer as they did in the AoL, but I don't see her hitting 300.

Wont the bond extend her life? Obviously not as long as a channeler who hasnt sworn on the oath rod, but I thought warders lived a little longer than normal folks.

No, I don't think extended life is a part of the Warder-bond. And, for that matter, Min isn't a Warder... she's on the AS side of the bond - Rand is the warder all three girls share.

Warders display greater vitality in their older years... still retaining the ability to fight physically and win into their 70's... but they dont live longer.

 

The longer life span in the Age of Legends had as much to do with Sung crops and general increase in standard of living as it did access to Healing. I doubt we can expect to see any increase in life expectancy any time soon.
