! __Perrin__ POV

As [Perrin|Perrin Aybara] leaves, [Rand|Rand alThor] calls upon a [Maiden|Maidens of the Spear] to tell [Sulin] to prepare rooms for [Perrin|Perrin Aybara] and [Faile|Zarine Bashere] and to obey them as they would him. [Perrin|Perrin Aybara] sees [Davram Bashere] down the hall. They go to a sitting room and talk about [Zarine|Zarine Bashere]. [Bashere|Davram Bashere] mentions a "Broken Crown"[1] which [Perrin|Perrin Aybara] knows nothing about. [Bashere|Davram Bashere] learns that [Zarine|Zarine Bashere] wants to be called [Faile|Zarine Bashere] and that she is a [Hunter of the Horn|Horn of Valere]. [Bashere|Davram Bashere] challenges [Perrin|Perrin Aybara], threatening to kill him, but [Perrin|Perrin Aybara] stands up to him. [Bashere|Davram Bashere] takes [Perrin|Perrin Aybara] to his wife, [Deira Bashere], and [Faile|Zarine Bashere]. [Perrin|Perrin Aybara] hears the two fighting, but it stops when the men enter the room. [Deira Bashere] also tries to bully [Perrin|Perrin Aybara] and again he resists. The [Bashere|Davram Bashere]s accept [Perrin|Perrin Aybara] as [Faile|Zarine Bashere]'s husband.

! __Rand__ POV

After [Perrin|Perrin Aybara] leaves, [Rand|Rand alThor] thinks that he needs [Perrin|Perrin Aybara] or [Mat|Matrim Cauthon] in [Tear|Tear (Country)] to convince [Sammael] of the attack. [Min|Min Farshaw] enters. [Min|Min Farshaw] had been talking with [Faile|Zarine Bashere] until [Bashere|Davram Bashere] came in for her. She says "He's found his falcon, and I wouldn't be surprised if she kills him when the hawk appears." [Rand|Rand alThor] then asks her if she saw anything concerning him. She says "When you two were together, I saw those fireflies and the darkness stronger than ever...But with the two of you in the same room, the fireflies were holding their own instead of being eaten faster than they can swarm, the way they do when you're alone. And there's something else I saw when you two were together. Twice he's going to have to be there, or you...If he's not, something bad will happen to you. Very bad." She reminds him of telling him about [Merana|Merana Ambrey] meeting with Lord [Pelivar|Pelivar Coelan]. She then returns to [The Crown of Roses]. [Lews Therin|Lews Therin Telamon] starts speaking again. [Rand|Rand alThor] notices that [Lews Therin|Lews Therin Telamon] is getting more persistent.

! __Demira Eriff__ POV

[Demira Eriff] comes into sight of the [Origan Gate|Caemlyn], which allows access into the [Inner City|Caemlyn] of [Caemlyn]. She is [Aes Sedai] from [Arad Doman]. She is there to meet [Milam Harnder], the Second Librarian in the [Royal Palace] library. He has been her agent for thirty years. The palace library is not as good as those in the [White Tower], [Cairhien|Cairhien (Country)], or [Terhana Library] in [Bandar Eban], but she is looking for information on the [seals|Seals].[2] She waits, does not see him, and starts back to [The Crown of Roses]. She was in [Caemlyn] some years ago and knows her way around. [Stevan] is her [Warder|Warder]. She enters an alley, apparently trying to take a shortcut back to the inn. She notes that cats seem to sense [Aes Sedai] and not be afraid. Dogs will growl at an [Aes Sedai], then slink away. She rounds a corner to find five or six [Aiel] coming toward her, laughing and talking. They make room for her to pass. One of the faces looks familiar, that of a squat fellow with villainous eyes. As she passes, a spear stabs her. She tries reaching for %%ot [saidar|Said]%%, but she is stabbed again and passes out while a man with black eyes says something to her.[3]

\\[#2] [Nesune Bihara], another [Brown Ajah] sister, is also interested in the [seals|Seals]. ([LoC,Ch25]) Is this just normal [Brown Ajah] inquisitiveness or is there something more to it?
\\[#3] By their description, the men are clearly not [Aiel]. Who ordered the attack and why are topics of discussion. See the [FAQ, Section 1.4.07|http://steelypips.org/wot-tgs/node/56.html].
