__[Perrin|Perrin Aybara]__ POV - [Perrin|Perrin Aybara] and [Egwene|Egwene alVere] take turns riding [Bela]. [Egwene|Egwene alVere] now has trouble lighting fires with the [One Power].[1] In two days they reach forested hills that flatten out in another day. They pass lots of old ruins. [Perrin|Perrin Aybara] dreams of [Ba'alzamon|Ishamael] chasing him through mazes. [Egwene|Egwene alVere] has nightmares of [Shadar Logoth|Aridhol (City)]. After about four days they smell smoke. They meet [Elyas Machera]. He has been watching them for two days. They tell him they are headed for [Caemlyn] and he tells them they are headed too far north. He seems to know about [Aiel]. Four wolves come up. [Elyas|Elyas Machera] introduces them as [Dapple|../creatures/wolves/dapple], [Burn|../creatures/wolves/burn], [Hopper] and [ Wind|../creatures/wolves/wind_wolf]. [Elyas|Elyas Machera] says he talks to them. The wolves came to him, not vice versa. Wolves running with men is older than the [Age of Legends]. Each wolf knows the history of all wolves. The wolves tell [Elyas|Elyas Machera] they can talk to [Perrin|Perrin Aybara]. [Perrin|Perrin Aybara] and [Egwene|Egwene alVere] make up a story about being from [Saldaea],[2] but the wolves know they are lying so [Perrin|Perrin Aybara] tells [Elyas|Elyas Machera] the whole truth except for the [Ba'alzamon|Ishamael] dreams. [Dapple|../creatures/wolves/dapple] is the leader of the pack. [Burn|../creatures/wolves/burn] was injured by [Trollocs]. [Elyas|Elyas Machera] avoids [Aes Sedai]. Talking to wolves has nothing to do with the [One Power], but when they learned he could, the [Red Ajah] wanted to gentle him. He accused them of being [Black Ajah] and killed two [Warders] escaping. He says, "[Aes Sedai] don't like old things coming again. There are other things, other folk." ...  "[Red Ajah] and some others. The [Amyrlin|Aes Sedai]..."[3] [Perrin|Perrin Aybara] knows one of the wolves is named [Hopper] and starts to feel their presence. [Elyas|Elyas Machera] offers to let them stay with him, but they insist on going to [Caemlyn] so he agrees to escort them back south to the road starting in the morning. 


!! Notes


[#1] She successfully [channeled|True Source] a fire the first morning before [Perrin|Perrin Aybara] found her. ([TEotW,Ch20])\\
[#2] [Elyas|Elyas Machera] lived with a [Saldaean|Saldaea] woman for a year so it is obvious to him that they are lying. ([TPoD,Ch10])\\
[#3] It is not at all clear what he means about the [Amyrlin Seat|Aes Sedai]. The timing is vague so it is not even possible to determine which [Amyrlin Seat|Aes Sedai] he is thinking about.\\
