Isendre was in the company of a band of peddlers in the Aiel Waste and was also a Darkfriend.
Appearance[]
She was young with dark hair and a pale, beautiful, heart-shaped face. She had dark eyes and a smoky voice.
Activities[]
She accompanied Hadnan Kadere and the rest of the peddlers into the Aiel Waste where they met up with Rand al'Thor.[1] She seemed to enjoy giving Rand seductive smiles on their way to Alcair Dal even though she was with Kadere. She even flirted with Matrim Cauthon for awhile. She was disgusted by Keille and was very rude to her and wasn't aware that she was, in fact, Lanfear in disguise. Lanfear got even with her later by planting stolen necklaces in her wagon, which the Aiel found and beat her for punishment.[2]
Seven times she tried to reach Rand's room to seduce him, but the maidens stopped her all but once. She was switched each time by the maidens, after which she was named Sorda as an insult to her slinking attempted to bed Rand. During this time, she was stripped of all her clothes except for the jewelry she had been caught with and forced to walk around with only that on her body.
The last time when she entered his room Aviendha was there.[3] After this attempt she was made da'tsang by Maidens of the Spear in which she was forced to wear a harsh black woolen cloak all day long. When the Aiel began to move towards Cairhien she once again tried to sleep with Rand but again failed, revealing that she had only ever managed to sleep with Asmodean, who revealed nothing to her. After this attempt to bed Rand, the Maidens shaved her bald and a beat her with stinging nettles all over her body, this finally broke the woman and she told Kadere she wasn't going to try anymore, believing that Aviendha had been sleeping with him this whole time. She was killed by Kadere when he begins to worry that she will reveal that they are both Darkfriends.
