During the Shadow War, two giant statues sa'angreal, one attuned to saidin and one to saidar, were constructed. They were to be used to destroy the Shadow's forces and erect a barrier around Shayol Ghul until there was a safe method to permanently seal the Bore. The great sa'angreal were so powerful that using them required special control ter'angreal which were assembled in an area far removed. The control statues were lost and the giant statues were never used (SaSG).
Rand found one each of the male and female control ter'angreal in Rhuidean and he now has them hidden in the Sun Palace in Cairhien. A second female statue that is broken lies in the museum in the Panarchs Palace in Tanchico.
