! __Rand__ POV

[Rand|Rand alThor] and [Hurin] meet [Loial] and [Mat|Matrim Cauthon]. [Hurin] says the men who stole the [Horn|Horn of Valere] met with [Trollocs] and entered a garden. [Verin|Verin Mathwin] is talking with [Barthanes|Barthanes Damodred].[1] [Loial] learned that the [Ogier] left [Cairhien|Cairhien (City)] because [Galldrian|Galldrian su Riatin Rie] quit paying them. 

They enter the garden and find the [Waygate|Ways]. [Hurin] says they went into it. [Rand|Rand alThor] sends [Mat|Matrim Cauthon] to get [Ingtar|Ingtar Shinowa] and [Verin|Verin Mathwin]. [Rand|Rand alThor] opens the [Waygate|Ways] and %%ot [Machin Shin]%% is waiting. It chants [al'Thor|Rand alThor].[2] [Rand|Rand alThor] [channels|True Source] [Fire|One Power] at %%ot [Machin Shin]%% and [Loial] gets the [Waygate|Ways] closed. [Hurin] thinks the fire was from %%ot [Machin Shin]%%. Coming out of garden, [Rand|Rand alThor] thinks he sees and hears someone else leaving.[3] As they enter the manor, they see %%brown [Verin|Verin Mathwin]%% and [Ingtar|Ingtar Shinowa] talking alone. He looks dazed. As they all prepare to leave, [Barthanes|Barthanes Damodred] draws [Rand|Rand alThor] aside. He tells him [Fain|Padan Fain] left a message. He is waiting for [Rand|Rand alThor] on [Toman Head]. [Barthanes|Barthanes Damodred] quizzes [Rand|Rand alThor] directly and seems shocked by it.[4] [Verin|Verin Mathwin] refuses to believe that [Fain|Padan Fain] used %%ot [Machin Shin]%%. She says ten [Aes Sedai] could not do it. Back at [The Great Tree] they rejoin [Perrin|Perrin Aybara]. Mistress [Tiedra] charges a lot, but she keeps the inn very well. [Ingtar|Ingtar Shinowa] says, "I am lost." [Rand|Rand alThor] tells them about the message from [Barthanes|Barthanes Damodred] and says he is going to [Toman Head]. [Verin|Verin Mathwin] agrees and says they will try [Stedding Tsofu]. It is only six hundred years old, but the Elders were still growing [Ways] then.[5] They send [Hurin] with a message for [Uno|Uno Nomesta] and the other [Shienarans|Shienar] to be ready to leave at first light.

! Notes (Possible Spoilers)

[#1] Is she just making conversation or is this something sinister?\\
[#2] So apparently some of [Fain|Padan Fain]'s personality was impressed on it.\\
[#3] No clue as to who it might be.\\
[#4] Probably more of [Rand|Rand alThor]'s %%ot [ta'veren|Wheel of Time]%% effect.\\
[#5] An ongoing question - [Verin|Verin Mathwin] always seems to know quite a lot. Is it common knowledge for [Browns|Brown Ajah] or does she have special sources?\\
