His Blood On The Rocks Of Shayol Ghul

Ok, this might be a losing effort, but I'm going to bring it up again anyways. :) Now, as we all know, it says in the books a few times "His blood on the slopes of Shayol Ghul, washing away the Shadow, sacrifice for man's salvation." Now, these prophicies are translated from the Old Tongue. And as has been stated, the Old Tongue can be trickey to translate. So here is my theory.

I beleive that blood means Blood, as in kin, relatives, etc. I think this ties in with the Prophicies of Rhuiden. Why you ask? Because Rand is half Aiel. Meaning the blood of Aiel runs in his veins. Rand's Blood, in this case, means the Aiel. He will lead the Aiel to Shyol Ghul itself, and only a "remnant of a remnant" will survive the attack. Any comments?
