Chronology (Possible Spoilers)#

• In a courtyard, several Aes Sedai meet to discuss the novices. Sheriam, the Mistress of Novices, is leading the conversation. Sheriam notes that they can't afford any losses and that the White Tower used to be full, but now fewer girls come to the Tower and they have lesser power. Liandrin asks permission just to talk with her. Sheriam agrees to allow her to talk to Nynaeve and then ends the meeting. Alanna tells Sheriam that this is a mistake. (Episode 201)
• Sheriam visits Alanna, with her warders Ihvon and Maksim present, discussing Liandrin’s plan for Nynaeve’s Accepted test. She seems uncomfortable with Alanna’s notion that powerful individuals signal the Last Battle, notes Liandrin has called for a vote, and questions if Alanna will be present, noticing her packed saddlebags (Scene 13 - Episode 202)
• Sheriam encounters Egwene and Elayne outside their rooms, asking Egwene where Nynaeve is, and imposes a three-month punishment on Elayne for moving furniture, requiring her presence in Sheriam’s office before breakfast (Scene 19 - Episode 202)
• Sheriam and Leane are present in a chamber with Liandrin for Nynaeve’s formal ceremony. After the ceremony, they escort Nynaeve to an adjacent room containing the Three Arches (Scene 26 - Episode 202)
