Rand wakes up, opens his tent flaps and sees Katerin guarding his tent. He asks her if his clerks have returned from Tear and when she responds that they have, he tells her to send word to the other rulers that he'll meet them in one hour. She then leaves to relay his command. There are still three other Maidens guarding his tent. He turns around to find Aviendha standing naked in the tent. He takes the nearby barrel of water and turns it into a warm, soapy shower for them both and then rinses them both off. She tells him that she will ask a boon of him today.
All of the armies are gathering, including the Aiel and the Sea Folk. Darlin and Gregorin come forward to greet Egwene. She tells them that Silviana has some words for each of them. Roedran approaches, but not too close. Egwene mentions that his rule is consolidating, which he acknowledges. She then tells him "You're welcome."
Egwene sees Rand crossing the field with a large bundle floating next to him. The grass is turning green as he walks on it. She asks Gawyn to go find out how he's doing that. As Rand is crossing the field, the bundle comes apart and becomes a massive pavilion staked to the ground. When it's complete, Rand tells the leaders that they can each bring five. Egwene brings Silviana, Saerin, Romanda, Lelaine and Gawyn.
