    In TEoTW Elaida supposedly had a foretelling. She said "'This I
    Foretell, and swear under the Light that I can say no clearer. From
    this day Andor marches toward pain and division. The Shadow has yet
    to darken it's blackest and I cannot see if the Light will come after.
    Where the world has wept one tear, it will weep thousands. This I Foretell'....'This too I Foretell. Pain and division will come to the
    whole world, and this man [Rand]stands at the heart of it.'" yet in
    ACoS Elaida had yet another Foretelling. "Suddenly the Foretelling
    took hold of her, a certainty about things she could not see stronger
    than if they had been laid out in front of her.....'The White tower
    will be whole again, except for remnants cast out and scorned, whole
    and stronger than ever......this I Foretell'. As usual, the
    Foretelling left her trembling, gasping for breath."

    Why didn't the ACoS Foretelling warn Elaida that she would not be the Amyrlin of the reunited Tower?
