Quotes

Siuan snorted forcefully. "Mother, by now even Lelaine and Romanda know you're the Amyrlin Seat in truth, whether or not they'll admit it. That pair wouldn't have fallen in line with Deane Aryman. I think they're beginning to see you as another Edarna Noregovna." (Siuan to Egwene; Crossroads of Twilight, Chapter 30)

Edarna was believed to have been the most politically skilled woman ever to hold the staff and stole. (Egwene; Crossroads of Twilight, Chapter 30)

Egwene's chair almost dropped her onto the carpets again. She needed to get a chair that did not try to fold up every time she moved. She was willing to bet Edarna never jumped as if she had itchcloak down her back. (Egwene when Sheriam catches her muttering aloud to herself; Crossroads of Twilight, Chapter 30)
