Summary
Aviendha sat with her nose pressed against the window pane, utterly fascinated. All had been normal when she had gone to sleep last night, but now the entire world had turned white.
Snow. Elayne had described it to her before, saying that it was like sand but pure white and made of cold water, but Aviendha’s attempts to imagine it paled in comparison to the reality. It was wondrous.
She felt a shift in her new bond with Rand. Sleep into wakefulness. “You’re cold,” he said, voice warm and rough with sleep. “Come back to bed.”

Summary
On the way out of the Waste, Rand spent a great deal of time with Aviendha. The Wise Ones had assigned her as his teacher in Aiel ways, and Rand wouldn’t be surprised if they also wanted her to spy on him, but if that was the case, he didn’t think she was in on it. Aviendha was almost shockingly forthright and blunt—not a deceptive bone in her body.
Her bluntness was difficult to get used to, after months of his life spent revolving around Lanfear.

Summary
Then Rand had come to them in Caemlyn, and after they’d all confessed their feelings and Elayne had bonded him to both of them as their Warder, he’d noticed Elayne wearing the bracelet and asked about it. And Elayne had said—
The heady feelings of love returned and a new bond had made her carefree and daring, and she’d joked that perhaps, in order to fully finish meeting their toh, Rand and Aviendha might show her how they’d spent that night in the snow-hut, so that she would no longer feel that she’d been left out or missed something important.
And now here they were.

Summary
“You might have met them while you were in Caemlyn,” Rand said. “One of them is Elayne Trakand, the Queen. And the other is Aviendha of the Taardad Aiel, who was living in the palace with Elayne the last time I saw them.”
Months ago. It had been months since he’d last seen them, and there was a permanent ache in his chest from how badly he missed them. An ache he was only letting himself feel now, after months of forcing it away into the Void.
This news did seem to startle Tam, far more than the revelation of two partners had. “The Queen,” he repeated. “So then, you’re about to become a father?”
Rand stared at him. About to become…? “What are you talking about?” he said, heart in his throat.

Summary
There was nothing Mat hated more than having to sit still indoors for hours at a time—Rand was willing to bet that he was being fussier about it than the twins were.
Rand smiled to himself and wrapped his arm more snugly around Aviendha. They were having a lovely and relaxing morning so far. Not being an official part of the royal family meant not having to sit for any portraits.

Summary
Aviendha had come over too and was peering over her shoulder. “That does not look correct,” she agreed. Elayne burst into tears, and Aviendha hastily added, “But there is no need to weep over cakes, shade of my heart.”
“Bloody pregnancy moods!” Elayne blubbered, wiping her eyes in annoyance, but she couldn’t stop crying. “Everything’s ruined, we made Rand wait all this time for nothing, and now he’s—b-burn me, he’s coming this way!”
Elayne and Aviendha attempt to bake honeycakes for Rand’s nameday.

Summary
Mat had never had a single direct conversation with Aviendha before the day she beckoned him away from the tents to speak privately and proceeded to end his life with a single sentence. “I have noticed your interest in Rand al’Thor,” she said.
Three conversations between Mat and Aviendha.

Summary
“Fine,” Mat said. “You’re in a worse noose now than I was, that’s for certain sure. Some men might envy you getting to have two women, but burn me if you didn’t wind up with the two worst ones in the world.” More glares from the Maidens.
“Elayne is wonderful,” Rand said defensively. “And Aviendha is…” He tried to think of one positive adjective to describe her and came up blank. “Well, she’s not as bad as all that.” She would warm up to him eventually, wouldn’t she?
“Either way, I don’t envy you,” Mat said. Then why did he seem so cross?

Summary
“If I told you, then it wouldn’t be private,” Elayne pointed out, just as Aviendha said, “We were discussing whether men receive pleasure from having something inside them.”
Elayne felt her face immediately flare up. “Aviendha!”
Birgitte laughed. “So, Rand had a good time last night, did he? You did have the bond masked for quite a while.”
Elayne wanted to protest that it was none of Birgitte’s business, but what ended up coming out was, “So it’s true? Men do like…that?”

Mat licked his lips. “I…I think you can do anything you set your mind to, my Lady,” he said.
“That is correct,” Elayne said, and she let go of him with a small shove backwards. “Get up. I am going to take a firm hand with Rand, and you will watch me, and then you will beg forgiveness for daring to question my capabilities. Understood?”
She was shocked by her own boldness, but the pure lust in Rand’s bond and in Mat’s eyes was heady and intoxicating. It made her feel in control, as if she could do anything. As if she could have the Dragon and his general on their knees begging her for mercy and loving every moment of it.

Summary
“Light, no,” Rand said. “If you tell Mat he’s experiencing a feeling even a moment before he’s good and ready to admit—to himself, let alone aloud—that he’s experiencing said feeling, he’ll just throw a fit and sink even deeper into denial. Stubborn woolhead.”
“Then we must endeavor to help him grow ready to admit it,” Aviendha said, undeterred.
The slightest hint of a smile touched Rand’s eyes. “I’ll settle for him and Elayne just being willing to sit in a room together by the time I next see them,” he said. “If you manage to successfully matchmake them, I’ll start to suspect you’re the Creator herself.”

Summary
Rand made a tearful little noise and drew his knees up into his chest, burying his face in them. “Two soulmates. And neither of them is Egwene,” he said. “What am I going to do?”
Mat was reaching to pat him on the back, and his hand froze when he caught sight of the very edge of a black letter, almost completely hidden by the curls at the nape of his neck; he was in need of a haircut. Mat seized a fistful of hair and pushed it out of the way, making Rand yelp. “What are you doing?”
“Blood and ashes, Rand,” Mat said in amazement. “You have three.”

“Could you repeat that?” Egwene said, brow furrowed in bewilderment.
“Tell her that Rand would like to give Aviendha some feathers, but he won’t unless Elayne agrees,” Mat said, as if he were talking to a toddler. “Honestly, Egwene, it’s not that hard to remember.”
Rand was blushing like the sun, and even Aviendha seemed a bit flustered. What on earth was going on here? Why did Rand want to give Aviendha feathers, and why would Elayne care?
