Rand meets the Borderland leaders and insists they swear to him
Summary
Rand is going to meet with the Borderland rulers. Cadsuane thinks it foolish. Min has a viewing that suggests callandor might be used against Rand. Before they leave, he tells Naeff that he has been unable to Travel to the Black Tower and asks Naeff to go there in disguise and seek out the loyal men. He is to tell them they are not weapons. Rand knows he has to deal with the Black Tower, but worries it is too much of a problem right then. He tells Cadsuane to be ready to open a gateway and that he knows she has a Well. She calls him "boy" again, and he suggests "Rand Sedai" might be more appropriate. He and Min talk about how he has Lews Therin's memories, but the difference between then and now is Rand was raised better.
They travel to Far Madding and are taken to see the leaders. The four leaders each step up to Rand and slap him, drawing blood. Paitar asks him how Tellindal Tirraso died. Rand is able to answer and they agree to explain themselves. Paitar tells of a prophecy given to one of his ancestors, that if the Dragon Reborn cannot answer, they should kill him rather than let him face the Dark One. Rand tells them that just a few weeks earlier, he would have answered their violence with balefire and that the guards only stop the One Power. He tells them he will have the Aes Sedai with them taught Traveling if they swear to him, otherwise he will leave them there. He tells them that the next day he is going to meet the monarchs of the world and then is going to Shayol Ghul to break the Seals. He asks them to bring Hurin to him.
