! __Rand__ POV

[Rand|Rand alThor] walks back to his rooms. [Eianrod] was already abandoned when [Couladin] and the [Shaido] came through. Back in his room he finds [Aviendha] standing there naked. She was not expecting him for some time. In a panic, she opens a gateway and [Travels|Weaves][1] to the opposite side of the world into a snowstorm.[2] [Rand|Rand alThor] blocks the gateway open and follows.[3] He finds her in a frozen creek and uses the [One Power] to build an igloo around them. He warms the interior with [Air|One Power] and [Fire|One Power] and then warms her up with body heat. He is a little too successful; she wakes and they make love.[4] [Aviendha] says that the rings do not lie.[5] Later, [Aviendha] astounds [Rand|Rand alThor] telling him that he still belongs to [Elayne|Elayne Trakand]. [Rand|Rand alThor] recalls what happened when [Nynaeve|Nynaeve alMeara] caught [Kimry Lewin] and [Bar Dowtry] in his father's barn. After [Nynaeve|Nynaeve alMeara] was done with them, [Mistress Lewin] took over. He suspects that life with [Aviendha] has not gotten any easier.

! Notes (Possible Spoilers)

[#1] She blocks this weave from her mind. Even with [Elayne|Elayne Trakand]'s instruction she will only be able to do a poor job of [Traveling|Weaves]. ([TPoD,Ch1]) This is a consequence of the second-learned weave limitation. ([TPoD,Ch12], [KoD,Ch23])
\\[#2] It is the land of [Seanchan|Seanchan (Country)] and, given the snow, the southern hemisphere.
\\[#3] [Rand|Rand alThor] did this before at [Rhuidean]. ([TSR,Ch58]) [Asmodean] later comments on the extreme difficulty of blocking someone else's gateway. ([TFoH,Ch32])
\\[#4] Is [Aviendha] now pregnant? No. Otherwise, she could not have participated in the ceremony in [WH,Prologue] and she would be several months along by [TGS,Ch26].
\\[#5] [Aviendha] learned from the [three rings|Three Arches] in [Rhuidean] that this was inevitable. ([TSR,Ch34])
