! __Rand__ POV

[Rand|Rand alThor] walks the halls of the [Royal Palace] in [Caemlyn] accompanied by [Bael], [Bashere|Davram Bashere] and a bunch of [Maidens|Maidens of the Spear] and [Knife Hands] of the [Jhirad] sept. Four of the [Maidens|Maidens of the Spear] are [Sulin], [Enaila], [Jalani] and [Dagendra]. [Somara] is not with them. [Reene Harfor], the First Maid, and [Halwin Norry], the Chief Clerk have helped him keep the palace running and in order. He has the [Waygates|Ways] in [Caemlyn], [Cairhien|Cairhien (City)] and [Tear|Tear (City)] under guard, but he wonders what to do about the rest.[1] [Taim|Mazrim Taim] taught him the trick of not feeling heat or cold.[2] News arrived this morning of trouble in the [Borderlands]. [Bashere|Davram Bashere] has heard nothing from home since he left months ago. [Rand|Rand alThor] worries about [Masema|Masema Dagar] and what to do about him.[3] [Bashere|Davram Bashere] tells him that [Ellorien|Ellorien Traemane] of House [Traemane|Andor] and [Pelivar|Pelivar Coelan] of House [Coelan|Andor] are in the city. [Dyelin|Dyelin Taravin] of House [Taravin|Andor] is nearby town. [Rand|Rand alThor] asks him to send invitations to them and to have [Arymilla|Arymilla Marne] send them so they will not be coming from a foreigner. [Bael] reports that the [Red Shields] reported two [Aes Sedai] staying at a nearby inn. There are also stories of an [Aes Sedai] in town who [Heals|Weaves] dogs and cats.[4] [Rand|Rand alThor] wonders if [Elaida|Elaida do Avriny aRoihan] has heard of his amnesty.[5] He hears [Lews Therin|Lews Therin Telamon]'s voice in his head. As they walk into a courtyard [Rand|Rand alThor] sees [Aviendha] and [Lews Therin|Lews Therin Telamon] moans about [Ilyena|Ilyena Therin Moerelle]. [Rand|Rand alThor] is very confused about his feelings for [Aviendha], [Elayne|Elayne Trakand] and [Min|Min Farshaw]. 

[Rand|Rand alThor] decides to go meet the two [Aes Sedai] and has [Jeade'en|JeadeEn (Rand)] saddled. He has the [little fat man] %%ot [angreal|Angreal]%% with him. [Bael], [Bashere|Davram Bashere] and several [Maidens|Maidens of the Spear] and [Knife Hands] accompany him to the inn called [Culain's Hound|Culains Hound]. The innkeeper is Master [Dilham]. There are many girls in the inn and [Rand|Rand alThor] recognizes many of them, [Bodewhin Cauthon], [Hilde Barran], [Jerilin al'Caar], [Marisa Ahan], [Emry Lewin], [Elise Marwin], [Darea Candwin], [Larine Ayellin], [Jancy Torfinn], [Susa al'Seen] and [Marce Eldin].[6] They tell him they are going to [Tar Valon] to become [Aes Sedai]. They tell him about [Perrin|Perrin Aybara], [Faile|Zarine Bashere], [Padan Fain], the [Whitecloaks|Children of the Light] and the [Trollocs]. They ask about [Mat|Matrim Cauthon], [Egwene|Egwene alVere] and [Nynaeve|Nynaeve alMeara]. [Verin|Verin Mathwin], [Alanna|Alanna Mosvani] and their [Warders][7] are with them. [Cilia Cole] was tested, but the [Aes Sedai] thought she was too old to bring along. [Rand|Rand alThor] and the [Aes Sedai] go to a private dining room to talk. They only learned of the split at [Whitebridge]. They will not be taking the girls to [Tar Valon]. They also will not tell [Rand|Rand alThor] what, if anything, they know about the rebels. [Alanna|Alanna Mosvani] casually asks where [Mat|Matrim Cauthon] is.[8] [Alanna|Alanna Mosvani] touches [Rand|Rand alThor] and bonds him as a [Warder|Warders]. [Lews Therin|Lews Therin Telamon] reacts with confusion then stunned shock. [Rand|Rand alThor] shields both of them in anger. He tells them both that they may stay in [Caemlyn], but they are barred from the [Inner City|Caemlyn] unless he invites them.[9] Back in the common room, the girls have been told he is the [Dragon Reborn|Rand alThor], but they are skeptical. In anger he [channels|True Source] terrifying them. Realizing what he has done he apologizes then he and his party prepare to return to the [Royal Palace].
