Scene 3 - Blood Calls Blood#
Ishamael enters a cavern in the Cairhien countryside with a seal overhead. He chants in the Old Tongue and channels, breaking the seal. Debris falls, revealing a crouching figure. Ishamael chants, "Blood feeds blood. Blood calls blood. Blood is. Blood was and blood shall ever be," and the figure begins to stand[1].
Scene 5 - It's Been Decades#
Anvaere[2] rises from her bed in her home in Cairhien, dresses, and applies makeup. She rings a bell, summoning a servant who assists with her dressing. She then rests on a couch. Her butler, Jhonas, enters and announces that her older sister has arrived.
In another room, Jhonas brings Moiraine to Anvaere. After a brief greeting, Moiraine declines tea, stating she has stabled her horse, requests her old room if available, and asks to keep a low profile in the city. Anvaere begins to reply, but Moiraine interrupts, asking Jhonas for a bottle of Ghealdanin red wine from the cellar and starting to order a dress. Anvaere interrupts, shouting that it’s been decades and insisting Moiraine sit for tea. Moiraine suggests lunch instead, as she has a meeting this morning, and then departs.
Scene 6 - A Chance To Get Away#
Rand is cleaning up the debris from the burned-down inn. Selene takes the blame for the fire, saying she forgot to blow out the candles. She tells Rand that she's having the inn rebuilt, which means she has time to get away for a while and stay at her family's cabin near Kinslayer's Dagger. She invites Rand to come with her, but Rand declines, stating that he's not good company right now. She says that since the fire drove off all the other tenants, he'll have the place to himself, if he wants that.
Scene 7 - It Wasn't Real#
Nynaeve lies in her bed in the White Tower, recalling her experience in the Three Arches. A knock on the door interrupts her thoughts. She rises, placing her novice ring on her finger, and opens the door to find Egwene standing there. Egwene offers Nynaeve honeycakes, and they begin to talk. Egwene reaches for Nynaeve’s novice ring, but Nynaeve pulls her hand away. Egwene offers her friendship and hugs Nynaeve, who hesitantly returns the embrace. Egwene reassures Nynaeve that her experience in the Three Arches was not real[3].
Scene 8 - Dinner With the Mosvanis#
On the grounds of the Mosvani family hold in Arafel, surrounded by olive trees and conical stone huts, a gathering is underway in a central clearing with Alanna, Maksim, Ihvon, and Lan present. Maksim play-swordfights with children while Lan watches. Alanna helps others prepare a meal as the children clamor for Maksim. He suggests they play with Ihvon, but Ihvon declines, saying he’ll join after eating. Everyone sits at wooden tables for dinner, and Alanna warns that she’ll set anyone on fire if they complain about the food. A family member remarks that it’s been a while since Alanna brought a new man home, suggesting she might be slowing down in her old age.
Scene 9 - Not Looking to Repeat#
After dinner, Alanna approaches Lan as he relieves himself against a tree near the Mosvani family hold in Arafel. Lan remarks that Maksim and Ihvon always check on him when he steps away, starting with a joke and sharing a warm memory to give him something to live for. Alanna interrupts, saying she’ll skip that approach, and notes that she doesn’t think Lan will kill himself because his bond with Moiraine was taken by her, not ripped away. She asks what he wants to do now, mentioning that she, Maksim, and Ihvon are heading to the White Tower tomorrow, and invites him to join them. Lan says he doesn’t know. Alanna informs him that Nynaeve will go through the Three Arches tomorrow, the fastest anyone has done so since Cadsuane, suggesting Nynaeve might soon need a Warder. Lan responds that he’s not looking to repeat his failures. Alanna wishes Lan had known Moiraine before she changed about twenty years ago, a year or two before their bonding[5].
Scene 10 - Memories of Childhood#
Moiraine has returned to her own room in the Damodred house in Cairhien. She’s going through the room, inspecting various items that evoke memories: a dollhouse, books, a ballerina box, and a box containing cigars, which she sniffs. She uncovers a mirror, pauses to smile at her reflection, and notices a picture of her and Anvaere as a child. She leaves her room and sees a bottle of Ghealdanin red wine on a nearby table. She sees her sister talking to her butler, grabs the bottle, and leaves the house.
Scene 11 - Time With Your Ward / Are You Training Him Yet? / What You Really Want / Teach Him Everything#
Moiraine is at the asylum talking to Celestin about Rand coming there every day, but he hasn't shown up for work today. Moiraine asks Celestin if she know where he lives, but Celestin responds by asking if he's in some sort of trouble. Moiraine then asks to see Logain and Celestin grants access.
Logain recognizes her when she enters says he should kill her. He then realizes she's the one who wanted him here instead of the White Tower. She takes out the bottle of wine and pours two glasses. She asks if he's started training Rand, but he doesn't answer, assuming that she sent Rand as well. She asks him where Rand is staying but he refuses to say and knocks a glass of wine from her hand. She says that she can give him what he really wants, and then produces a knife, saying that if he helps her, she'll give him the knife. She asks again where Rand is staying and this time he tells her that Rand is staying at the Crescent Inn. He tells her that Rand has as much power as he did, but fears it, hates it, so he can't control it. She tells him to teach Rand everything he knows about channelling and once she's satisfied with Rand's progress, she'll give him the knife. She then leaves.
