! __Egwene__ POV

[Egwene|Egwene alVere], [Elayne|Elayne Trakand] and [Nynaeve|Nynaeve alMeara] arrive at [Tear|Tear (City)] on the ''[Darter]''. They are calling themselves [Joslyn|Egwene], [Caryla|Elayne] and [Maryim|Nynaeve] respectively. [Egwene|Egwene alVere] has been very seasick and [Nynaeve|Nynaeve alMeara] is even worse. [Egwene|Egwene alVere] and [Nynaeve|Nynaeve alMeara] spend a lot of time arguing. Captain [Canin] tells her they are docking. She has been using the [twisted ring], occasionally glimpsing [Rand|Rand alThor] or [Mat|Matrim Cauthon] or [Perrin|Perrin Aybara], but not learning anything useful. She has had more dreams as well:

* A [Whitecloak|Children of the Light] putting Master [Luhhan|Haral Luhhan] in the middle of a huge, toothed trap for bait.
* [Perrin|Perrin Aybara] with a falcon on his shoulder.
* [Perrin|Perrin Aybara] choosing between that axe he wore now and a blacksmith's hammer.
* [Mat|Matrim Cauthon] dicing with the [Dark One|ShaiTan].
* [Mat|Matrim Cauthon] shouting at her, "I am coming."
* [Rand|Rand alThor] sneaking through utter darkness toward %%ot [Callandor]%%, while all around him six men and five women walked, some hunting him and some ignoring him, some trying to guide him toward the shining crystal sword and some trying to stop him from reaching it, appearing not to know where he was, or only to see him in flashes. One of the men had eyes of flame, and he wanted [Rand|Rand alThor] dead with a desperation she could nearly taste. She thought she knew him. [Ba'alzamon|Ishamael].
* [Rand|Rand alThor] in that dry, dusty chamber again, with those small creatures settling into his skin.
* [Rand|Rand alThor] confronting a horde of [Seanchan|Seanchan (People)].
* [Rand|Rand alThor] confronting her, and the women with her, and one of ''them'' was a [Seanchan|Seanchan (People)].[1]

She tells Captain [Canin] to have their horses put ashore including [Mist]. Once they are all ashore, they admire the view of the [Stone of Tear]. [Elayne|Elayne Trakand] recalls [Atuan] Sedai telling her the [White Tower] could not build it today. They mount their horses and begin riding through the city while they discuss how to find [Liandrin]. [Elayne|Elayne Trakand] suggests hiring a thief-taker like [Hurin]. They do not want to stay at an inn, as that will make them easier to find, so [Nynaeve|Nynaeve alMeara] looks for a Wisdom, or her [Tairen|Tear (Country)] equivalent, and eventually finds one. [Egwene|Egwene alVere] ties [Mist] beside [Nynaeve|Nynaeve alMeara]'s horse thinking that [Gaidin] is a poor name for a horse. The woman who opens the door introduces herself as Mother [Guenna|Ailhuin Guenna]. [Nynaeve|Nynaeve alMeara] asks for something for a queasy stomach and the two of them start discussing herbs. When [Nynaeve|Nynaeve alMeara] asks about the weather, Mother [Guenna|Ailhuin Guenna] mentions [Sea Folk] [Windfinders|Sea Folk]. After a while, she tells them to call her [Ailhuin|Ailhuin Guenna]. The main complaint she has heard lately is bad dreams.[2] [Nynaeve|Nynaeve alMeara] offers to hire her spare bedroom and she agrees. [Nynaeve|Nynaeve alMeara] tells her they are hunting thieves and [Darkfriends]. The things they stole were old and not of much value. [Ailhuin|Ailhuin Guenna] tells her about [Leuese Mulan] who pulled up some %%ot [cuendillar]%% dishes in his fishing nets and got rich. [Ailhuin|Ailhuin Guenna] says she has decided on the man they need, [Juilin Sandar], a thief-catcher. [Ailhuin|Ailhuin Guenna] leaves to go find him. [Egwene|Egwene alVere] tells [Nynaeve|Nynaeve alMeara] that she is as good a manipulator as [Moiraine|Moiraine Damodred] causing her to go white. [Elayne|Elayne Trakand] slaps her for it. They wait for [Ailhuin|Ailhuin Guenna] to return.
