Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. The Ogier can live to be very old. How many life spans of humans can they live through?

Answer: 3 to 4

Because the Ogier can live for so long they are not even considered an adult until they reach the age of 100.

Answer: 41

The Ogier can not go long without being in a stedding. During the breaking many Ogier roamed the earth slowly dying of something they called the longing.

3. When the Ogier harbored the male Aes Sedai in the stedding, the Aes Sedai gave them a gift. This gift was called what?

Answer: The Ways

The Ways were often used to connect the stedding and the Ogier's building sites. You could enter the ways by going into a stone door onto a series of bridges and stone islands. You could travel a day in the Ways and come out on the other side of the world.

4. Occasionally the Ogier will gather for an inter-stedding meeting. Only mature Ogier were allowed to attend. What was this meeting called?

Answer: The Stump

The stump was often held on the polished stump of a fallen down tree. These trees were known as the Great Trees and would never be cut down by the Ogier. Many of the quarrels with men began because of the cutting down of the Great Trees.

5. Some years after the Ways were built they became corrupt and haunted by something that gave no mercy to its victims. What was this thing called?

Answer: Machin Shin

The Ogier believed that Machin Shin was either sent by the Dark Lord or else simply arose from the taint of Saidin. Many Ogier never returned from their run-ins with Machin Shina and those who did had lost their minds.

6. The Stedding have a sort of 'aurora' about them that make them unique from normal places. Which one of these is a part of the Stedding's special 'auroras'?

Answer: Aes Sedai Cannot Channel Inside One

The Aes Sedai feel very strange inside a Stedding and cannot long endure being inside one. The other 'aurora' of the stedding are that evil things will not willingly enter one. There may be others but because of the Aes Sedai's inability to channel inside one they cannot be studied.

7. When the Ogier were driven from the stedding during the breaking they traveled the world seeking safety. During their journeys they picked up a skill that was unrivaled. What was this skill?

Answer: Masonry

This was the skill that the Ogier were known for both near and far. This seemed strange to them because they believed their best skill to be with trees and the masonry rather dull.

8. The Ogier were also known for something else. During the Age of Legends they would perform this marvellous feat with the help of the Nym and of the Aiel. What was this called?

Answer: Tree Singing

The Ogier have marvellously deep voices which they would join together with the higher melodious voices of the Aiel and the beautiful dancing of the Nym.

9. Lanfear, when she is masquerading as Selene, calls Loial the official ceremonious title of the Ogier. What was this title?

Answer: Brother to the Trees

Tia Avende Alantin (Brother to the Trees) arose from the Ogier's ability to Tree Sing and their closeness to the trees.

10. The Ogier are usually smaller than people.

Answer: False

The Ogier tower over normal people often being half again as tall as a normal sized adult.
