Everyone in these books needs communication lessons. (Up to book 6 spoilers within).

First read of the series. Largely enjoying it so far, especially book 6. But holy hell no one in this series is able to communicate. Why in the world have Rand and Egwene largely withheld information that Gaebril was Rahvin?

Obviously it wouldn't be some panacea, there would still be rumours Rand killed Morgase, or that he was a forsaken himself or whatever else floating around the common folk. But I don't understand why he's made no effort beyond saying "trust me bro, I want to see Elayne sit the throne" to actually explain his actions to the nobles of Andor. At least to the Trakand loyalists.

Same with Egwene. She runs into Gawyn, who's convinced that Rand offed his mum and usurped her throne. Does she give him the play by play and explain that they actually heard Morgase was dead at the hands of a forsaken before Rand set foot in Caemlyn, or that he loves and is loyal to Elayne? No she just says "no sweetie Rand didn't do it. You'll just have to trust me".

There's a million more examples, and it's most of the main cast not just Rand and Egwene but god guys what are you doing.
