"Lie still Shaarad, or I will say I have touched you armed and allow you to choose how your honor stands."
—Chiad while tending to a wounded Gaul during the Battle of Emond's Field
Chiad later joins Faile when she heads to the Two Rivers to confront the Whitecloaks.[2] There seems to be an attraction between Gaul and her, even though their respective clans have a blood feud with each other. She stays with Gaul to fight Trollocs during the Battle of Emond's Field instead of going with Faile and Bain to Watch Hill.[3]
Dumai's Wells[]
Chiad accompanies Faile when she goes with Perrin Aybara to meet Rand al'Thor in Caemlyn. Gaul wants to marry her, but she doesn't want to give up the spear. She is Rand's guard when he is taken by the White TowerAes Sedai.
Chiad then moves out with Perrin and Faile when they Travel to Ghealdan to track down Masema Dagar. While out hunting, she is captured by the Shaido and made gai'shain.
She helps Arrela Shiego and Lacile Aldorwin escape the Shaido camp but refuses to escape herself. She and Bain help Faile by making sure captive Dairaine Saighan doesn't run to Sevanna to inform her of Faile's planned escape.
During the Battle of Malden, she is rescued by Gaul and now serves as his gai'shain. She recovers some clothing of Rolan, Kinhuin, and Jhoradin so that Faile can carry out a funeral service for the fallen men.
Bain offers Gaul some freshly sharpened spears the day of Perrin's trial. She travels with Perrin and the rest of his huge force to the Field of Merrilor to prepare for the Last Battle. Bain and Chiad watch Gaul leave through the gateway with Perrin in their attempt to stop Slayer.
