! __Egwene__ POV

[Egwene|Egwene alVere] rides [Mist] through [Jangai Pass]. The wide road through the pass was called the [Silk Path]. After four days they have reached the western end of the pass and are entering [Cairhien|Cairhien (Country)]. The [Gaelin River] runs a few miles to the north. [Moiraine|Moiraine Damodred] and [Lan|al'Lan Mandragoran] ride behind the second wagon in [Kadere|Hadnan Kadere]'s train, the one carrying the [twisted red doorway|Twisted Red Doorway]. [Isendre], still wearing black, runs with the [Maidens|Maidens of the Spear]. [Adelin], [Maira] of the [Serai] [Tomanelle] and the other [Maidens|Maidens of the Spear] who were guarding [Rand|Rand alThor]'s tent now carry dolls, apparently on orders from [Amys] and [Bair].[1] 

They are near the town of [Selean]. [Couladin] and the [Shaido] apparently killed or carried off everyone. [Egwene|Egwene alVere] joins [Aviendha], [Amys] and thirty other [Wise Ones|Aiel] following behind [Rand|Rand alThor]. [Mat|Matrim Cauthon] and [Natael|Asmodean] are with them. [Rand|Rand alThor] talks with the seven clan chiefs.[2] [Stone Dog|Stone Dogs] scouts report that [Timolan] and the [Miagoma] are following a day behind.

[Rand|Rand alThor] tells the clan chiefs that they can take their fifth, but it must not include food. He will hang any man who disobeys. [Rhuarc], [Bael], [Dhearic], [Han] and [Jheran] are not pleased, but they accept his orders. [Aviendha] is annoyed that [Rand|Rand alThor] now carries the sword she gave him. Near tears, she begs [Egwene|Egwene alVere] to intercede for her with [Amys], [Bair] and [Melaine]. She cannot bear staying in [Rand|Rand alThor]'s tent any more. [Sorilea], [Wise One|Aiel] of [Shende] Hold, overhears and joins the conversation. [Melaine] and [Aeron|aeron], a [Wise One|Aiel] of the [Black Water] [Nakai], start to join as well, but [Sorilea] chases them off. [Sorilea] then chews out [Egwene|Egwene alVere] and [Aviendha] for even thinking about questioning a [Wise One|Aiel]'s orders. She is disappointed that [Rand|Rand alThor]'s "gift" of the jewels was not an interest gift. She plans to set up [Aviendha] with [Feran], one of the [Black Eyes]. His greatfather is [Sorilea]'s sister-son. 

The [Black Eyes] have vowed to kill [Couladin], another %%ot [Seia Doon|Black Eyes]%%. [Sorilea] is pleased that [Rand|Rand alThor] is showing the clan chiefs that he is in charge. After [Sorilea] leaves, [Aviendha] tells [Egwene|Egwene alVere] that [Feran] is interested in [Enaila]. [Egwene|Egwene alVere] thinks challenging [Nynaeve|Nynaeve alMeara] was nothing compared to going against [Sorilea]. [Egwene|Egwene alVere] agrees to talk to the [Wise Ones|Aiel] for [Aviendha].
