Meira

Author: Kyria d'Oreyn

General

Meira is a Wise One of the White Cliff sept of the Shaido Aiel. She has a long, grim and narrow face and a thin mouth (ACoS, Prologue; ACoS, Ch. 20). Her eyes resemble sapphires (KoD, Ch. 5).

Timeline

• Although she is not directly mentioned, she is one of the thirteen Wise Ones who murdered Desaine (LoC, Ch. 53).

• She stays with Sevanna during the battle at Dumai's Wells (ACoS, Prologue).

• Two days after the battle, she and the other Wise Ones activate the call box "Caddar" (Sammael) had given Sevanna to call him (ACoS, Ch. 20).

• She reached the decision with the other Wise Ones that Sevanna is to have Therava as her advisor (TPoD, Ch. 11).

• After the Wise Ones question a Seanchan soldier, they make Galina swear to obey them, Sevanna and Therava most of all (TPoD, Ch. 11).

• She stops Faile to question her about the things Sevanna said (KoD, Ch. 5).

Quotes

"Meira was not so frightening as Therava, but the grim-faced woman was hard enough, and shorter than Faile. Her narrow mouth always grew even tighter when she was confronted with a woman taller than she." (Faile; Knife of Dreams, Chapter 5)
