General

Talene Minly is an Aes Sedai and Sitter for the Green Ajah, but is actually Black Ajah. She sided with Elaida when the Tower split (WH, Prologue).

Talene and three other Sitters were suspicious of Seaine and Pevara’s peculiar behaviour. Saerin realised that they were hunting the Black Ajah and swore on the oath rod that she was not Black Ajah.

They took Talene to the Chair of Remorse and forced her to admit to being Black Ajah. She was also forced to swear a personal oath of obedience to the Sitters (WH, Prologue).

Talene is statuesque and has golden hair; she is beautiful (ACoS, Ch. 32). She speaks with a deep voice (TPoD, Ch. 26). Talene has blue eyes (WH, Prologue). She is tall (CoT, Ch. 21).
