! __Egwene__ POV

[Sheriam|Sheriam Bayanar], [Anaiya], [Beonin|Beonin Marinye], [Carlinya], [Morvrin] and [Myrelle|Myrelle Berengari] keep [Egwene|Egwene alVere] up late telling her mostly useless information and planning her speech. The only piece of use is that [Merana|Merana Ambrey] is heading an embassy to [Rand|Rand alThor] that should be nearly to [Caemlyn] by now. They have sent emissaries to every nation to plead their case. [Gareth Bryne] is leading their army. [Logain|Logain Ablar] was also [Healed|Weaves]. [Anaiya] prepared one of the rooms in the [Little Tower|Salidar] as hers. The next morning, her new maid [Chesa] helps her dress. While she is dressing, [Romanda|Romanda Cassin] and [Lelaine|Lelaine Akashi] show up to give her advice. [Chesa] tells her than many of the servants such as [Nildra] and [Kaylin] are gossips. When she is ready, she goes outside where a crowd is waiting. [Romanda|Romanda Cassin] announces her as the new [Amyrlin|Aes Sedai]. In her speech, [Egwene|Egwene alVere] names [Sheriam Bayanar] as her [Keeper|Aes Sedai]. Keeping with tradition, she absolves all [novices] and [Accepted] of their penances. She also raises [Theodrin Dabei], [Faolain Orande], [Nynaeve al'Meara] and [Elayne Trakand] to full [Aes Sedai]. Finally she declares a feast day in celebration. 

Afterwards [Sheriam|Sheriam Bayanar] leads her to her study. [Romanda|Romanda Cassin] and [Lelaine|Lelaine Akashi] follow closely behind. They are furious because she raised the [Accepted] on her own. All three tell her to consult with them before making any more decrees. [Egwene|Egwene alVere] dismisses them then [Elayne|Elayne Trakand] and [Nynaeve|Nynaeve alMeara] enter. They have a gleeful reunion. [Nynaeve|Nynaeve alMeara] demonstrates her [Healing|Weaves] weave. [Egwene|Egwene alVere] has little feel for [Healing|Weaves] and can barely follow. [Elayne|Elayne Trakand] then demonstrates her skill with %%ot [ter'angreal|Angreal]%%. Despite her strength in [Fire|One Power] and [Earth|One Power], [Egwene|Egwene alVere] cannot follow at all.[1] They tell her that [Min|Min Farshaw] is also with the embassy to [Rand|Rand alThor]. She tells them that [Rand|Rand alThor] wants to give the [Lion Throne|Royal Palace] and [Sun Throne|Sun Palace] to [Elayne|Elayne Trakand]. [Elayne|Elayne Trakand] is furious as they are not his to give. They also tell her about the weather %%ot [ter'angreal|Angreal]%% in [Ebou Dar]. The [Sitters] sent a letter to [Merilille|Merilille Ceandevin], but she will never find it as she is busy with Queen [Tylin|Tylin Quintara]. It is clear to [Egwene|Egwene alVere] that the [Salidar Aes Sedai] chose her because of her connection to [Rand|Rand alThor] and because they think they can use her as a puppet. She remembers [Moiraine|Moiraine Damodred]'s lectures on the Game of Houses and thinks that she will have to use every bit of it. She tells them the trip to [Ebou Dar] may not take as long as they think.[2]
