Notes

So Lanfear did Heal him.
How long was she there and what did she learn?
And what was that?
The Big Mystery. Verin says Moiraine sent her but Moiraine denies it. What really happened? See the discussion in the FAQ, Section 2.2.7, local FAQ, Section 2.2.7.
A tribute to Robert Heinlein. To Sail Beyond the Sunset was his last book.
