Egwene deals with trivial matters and thinks on how Sheriam would keep her in the dark if she let her. She tells Sheriam that she has discovered two sisters of every Ajah except the Blue left a few days after Leane and Siuan arrived and asks why. Sheriam tries to avoid answering but Egwene forces her to tell her that they were sent to spread tales of Logain and the Reds. Siuan realises that they were worried that the Sitters might be Black Ajah, which is why none were told. She is pressing the issue, about how much trouble this would cause if it came out when Egwene feels a sharp pain, the feeling of hope from Moghedien, then nothing. She goes to investigate. After finding her gone, she realises that a man channeling has freed her and worries it might have been Logain.

Characters: Bael, Davram Bashere, Deira Bashere, Jalani, Melaine, Rand, Sulin

Setting: Andor

Point of view: Rand

Rand broods, suspicious of everyone except Min. He think about the flashes of color he saw while captured that reminded him of Mat and Perrin. He travels to Andor with Jonan Adley, Eben Hopwill, Fedwin Morr and the Maidens. They dress him as a prisoner and blindfold him to avoid recognition in case Elayne is about and they take him to Bashere. Once there, Bashere is questioned about his intentions. Bael argues that the White Tower has put itself against Rand, but Rand says he has enough enemies without fighting the Tower. They tell him the rebels are camped outside Cairhien and Bael suggests sending the Spears to finish them. Rand is somewhat distracted, thinking about the angreal he lost and how to get it back. He is informed of nine Aes Sedai at an inn called the Silver Swan and that others have come and gone since he left a month before. Bashere tells him of the large number of men he now has following him, who were not capable of learning to channel.

He is told Dyelin has hanged and flogged some nobles who declared her as a competitor for the throne, and that she, Pelivar and Luan imprisoned Elenia and Naean for declaring themselves, but also that the feeling in the country is for Dyelin. He decides then that the Spears are to march on Illian.
