[Nynaeve|Nynaeve alMeara] finally admits that she captured [Moghedien] and that most of their "discoveries" came from her. She shows [Egwene|Egwene alVere] the %%ot [a'dam|aDam]%% bracelet. Only [Siuan|Siuan Sanche], [Leane|Leane Sharif] and [Birgitte|Birgitte Trahelion] also know. [Egwene|Egwene alVere] says she will not ask about [Birgitte|Birgitte Trahelion].

[Egwene|Egwene alVere] tells [Siuan|Siuan Sanche] that she means to have her help in being successful. She will take advice from [Siuan|Siuan Sanche] but that is all. [Siuan|Siuan Sanche] grudgingly admires [Egwene|Egwene alVere]'s strength, then proceeds to give her a lot of good advice on how to get the [Salidar Aes Sedai] moving. \\ \\ More [Egwene POV] ! __Romanda Cassin__ POV [Romanda|Romanda Cassin] is with three other [Sitters] who support her.[4] They supported [Egwene|Egwene alVere] solely to keep the stole from [Lelaine|Lelaine Akashi].

She thinks the [Wise Ones|Aiel] would be proud of her. %% %%collapsebox-closed ! Notes (Possible Spoilers) [#1] Ironic since he used [Asmodean] in much the same way! \\[#2] Note that a gateway of %%ot [saidin|Said]%% requires both [Spirit|One Power] and [Fire|One Power]. ([KoD,Ch21]) \\[#3] The first indication that [Moghedien] has some activity going on in [Ebou Dar], confirmed in [LoC,Epilogue]. \\[#4] They are [Varilin], [Saroiya] and [Magla Daronos]. ([TPoD,Ch19]) \\[#5] They include [Lyrelle|Lyrelle Arienwin], [Takima] and [Faiselle]. ([TPoD,Ch19]) Two books later there are only three visible supporters, so either she loses one, the fourth is a secret, or this is simply an error. \\[#6] Is this just to avoid [Logain|Logain Ablar] detecting [Halima|Halima Saranov] using %%ot [saidin|Said]%% or is there some other reason? Also, she uses the term [severing|Stilling] from the [Age of Legends]. %% ---- More [Category Chapters|Category.Chapters], [a'Dam Chapter Icon]
