Theory? That word sounds familiar for some reason.

Who would you hate to be left in a room with? Paidan Fain, Elaida, Mazrim Taim, Cadsuane, Semirhage, Ishamael, Demandred, Lanfear, Sammael, Graendal, Mesaana, Moghedien, Dashiva, Halima, Asmodean, Be'lal, Rahvin, renegade Asha'man, Alviarin, Sevanna, Masema, Lord Gawyn, any Red Ajah, nobility from Tear, Cairhien, Illian, or Andor, the rebel armies who want me out of their nations, the bands of marauding Dragonsworn, the Ever Victorious Seanchan army, the Seanchan Blood, the Whitecloaks, the gholam, Lord Luc/Isam, the Sea Folk Sailmistresses and Windfinders, Alanna, Mat with fireworks, Elayne's giggly entourage of Queen's Guards, Two Rivers folk who know what I've become, women whom I will be forced to kill, Lews Therin and that third dude, Gray Men, Trollocs, Darkhounds, Draghkar, Darkfriends, dreadlords, myrdraal, and Shai'tan.

Worst feeling: Being trapped inside a chest by a group of Aes Sedai led by the Red Ajah, beaten nightly, starved, whipped, and tortured.
Or going insane and killing innocent women by accident.
Or knowing I am doomed.
Or knowing that the world and my friends will be glad to be rid of me.
