#redirect [[Majhere]]
 
 
==General==
 
 
 
Majhere is the title of the head servant of [[the Stone of Tear]], like a ''[[shatayan]]'' in the [[Borderlands]] or the Holder of the Keys in [[Cairhien (Nation)|Cairhien]].
 
 
 
The current majhere is a small but broad [[Tairen]] with her gray hair in coiled braids, an extra chin and black, deep-set eyes  ({{tsr|16}}; {{tsr|17}})
 
 
 
==Timeline==
 
 
 
* She gets [[Perrin]] a room, but is shocked that he wants one without a sitting room ({{tsr|2}}).
 
 
 
* When Rand accidentally burns a mattress, he says aloud that she is not likely to be willing to give him a new mattress every day ({{tsr|7}}).
 
 
 
* [[Rand]] makes a flower out of feathers for her ({{tsr|8}}).
 
 
 
* She supervises some of her servants, but the heat of the day is taking her energies so she cannot make them work faster ({{tsr|9}}).
 
 
 
* After the [[Shadowspawn]] attack on the Stone, she supervises the servants cleaning whatever remains of the fighting. Perrin walks past her and she later tells [[Gaul]] where he went ({{tsr|16}}).
 
 
 
* When she sees [[Thom]] after he has planted rumors among the servants, she reprimands him for being idle and he leaves ({{tsr|17}}).
 
 
 
==Miscellaneous==
 
 
 
* Perrin being a friend of the [[Dragon Reborn]] sets him, in the majhere's Tairen view, on the same level with a Lord of the Land ({{tsr|2}}). She does not curtsy much deeper for High Lords than she does for him, however ({{tsr|16}}).
 
 
 
* She commands the servants in the Stone and sees to the daily matters that need to be taken care of ({{tsr|2}}), but if someone does not set a pace to suit her she tends to rap knuckles or flick ears ({{tsr|9}}).
 
 
 
* She has a firm voice. Gaul thinks that she is as hard as a Wise One ({{tsr|16}}).
 
 
 
* Thom thinks that she is a horrible woman and would have managed to set the [[Trollocs]] to sweeping if she had managed to lay her hands on them ({{tsr|17}}).
 
 
 
==Quotes==
 
 
 
"I can find work for [[gleeman|gleemen]], too," the majhere's voice said behind him. "Idle hands are idle hands." (The majhere to Thom; {{tsr2|Chapter 17}}).
