! __Sheriam__ POV

[Sheriam|Sheriam Bayanar] enters her tent and checks once again to make sure her tormentor has not returned. She silently thanks [Romanda|Romanda Cassin] that [Halima|AranGar] is gone.[1] [Chesa] still keeps [Egwene|Egwene alVere]'s tent neat. [Sheriam|Sheriam Bayanar] joined her "friends" solely for power; she has no interest in the Last Battle or the [Chosen|Forsaken].[2] Suddenly, she senses a woman of great strength outside her tent. A black figure enters and [Sheriam|Sheriam Bayanar] makes obeisance. The figure says that [Egwene|Egwene alVere] must be deposed and the %%ot [Tel'aran'rhiod|TelAranRhiod]%% meetings must end. [Sheriam|Sheriam Bayanar] explains that the [Hall|Sitters] has dream %%ot [ter'angreal|Angreal]%%. She truthfully says that there are twenty, eighteen for the [Hall|Sitters], one for her, and one other that [Leane|Leane Sharif] had when she was captured.[3] The figure orders [Sheriam|Sheriam Bayanar] to steal all of them. She has three days, and will lose a finger or toe for each one she misses. The figure opens a gateway to the halls of the [White Tower] and vanishes.[4]
