Summary
She sees flickers of saidar, coils of silver unspooling from her soul, drifting upward, dissipating in the merciless heat like dew under the morning sun on a meadow.
No, no, no. Light, no.
There is a keening wounded animal screaming Siuan’s name into the dessert.
That wounded animal sound is coming from herself, Moiraine realises.
Or: Moiraine has to fight a Forsaken, a probably fatal gut wound, and intense grief.

Summary
There is a golden bonfire somewhere outside London, built at the central meadow of a luxurious retreat with ten bungalows and a main house, and only about 50 people know it exists.
People clad in red robes stitched with golden dragons curling down the sleeves dance around it. Wine sloshes in crystal cups glittering like frozen starlight in hands as the gathered whirl round and round the giant stack of burning firewood as sparks dance upward, licking at the dark sky above.
Siuan does not dance, she keeps to the edge of the gathering, but has put on a red cardigan to keep to the theme. She observes, rather than participates.
According to Moiraine, the red clothing stands for the blood the Dragon Reborn will spill on the stone of Shayol Ghul when he defeats the Dark One and saves the world.Or: Moiraine and Siuan meet in every life and try to get it right somehow. Another one of those lives happens to involve a cult in modern-day Great Britain worshipping the Dragon Reborn.
