General

Baelome is a Ghealdanin noblewoman. Masema almost had her beheaded for calling Rand by his name instead of 'Lord Dragon'. She beseeched him to let the sentence drop, so instead she was hung by her wrists and strapped. Afterwards she thanked Masema for his mercy.

Quotes

"Remember the Lady Baelome, Uno? Right after the first rumors came from Tear naming the Lord Dragon, Nynaeve, she said something about "this Rand al'Thor" in Masema's hearing, and he called for an axe and a chopping block without pause for breath." (Ragan to Uno; The Fires of Heaven, Chapter 39)
