Salindi Casolan was an Aes Sedai sitter who lived at the time of the formation of the White Tower.[1]

History[]

Circa 47 AB, Salindi is recorded as being one of more than twelve delegates who each sat for their sovereign ajahs (note the lowercase), in negotiations centered around unifying all female channelers of differing allegiances into one indivisible society.[2] It is known that one outcome of these discussions was a decision to establish a new city as a center of Aes Sedai power. It is also known that many decisions made at these conferences were not unanimous and that various dissenting delegates threatened to walk out of negotiations at different times.[2] Salindi's allegiances in these discussions is not recorded and the weight of her political influence is unknown.

Fifty-one years later in 98 AB Salindi was recorded as being one of seven women providing assistance and council to Elisane Tishar, herself a former delegate who became the first Amyrlin Seat.[2] This is strong evidence that Salindi and her six colleagues represent the founding Aes Sedai who chartered the seven Ajah sisterhoods that would come to define Aes Sedai power and influence.
