Sheraine Caminelle is an Aes Sedai of the Blue Ajah[1] captured by the Seanchan at Falme and renamed Mylen.
Appearance[]
Sheraine is slender[2] and very short, indicating that she is from Cairhien.[3][4] She is a pretty little woman, 4'10 tall, pale with dark hair and eyes.[3] She physically resembles fellow Cairhienin Moiraine Damodred.
Upon her capture by the Seanchan, she refuses to eat and becomes skin and bones. After Tuon takes her in, she becomes healthier, plumper and rounder of bosom and bottom.
Activities[]
Capture in Falme[]
When the Seanchan arrive at Falme, Sheraine and her Warder are ambushed and her Warder killed.[2] She is made damane and renamed Mylen. She refused to cooperate with the sul'dam holding her, refusing to eat or drink, and nearly died. She was taken back to Seanchan, and Tuon bought her on the docks at Shon Kifar. All of the der'sul'dam had despaired and expected her to die, but Tuon successfully trained her. Mylen has become a perfect damane and was chosen to be one of six damane to accompany Tuon across the Aryth Ocean.[3]
Mylen is with Tuon in Ebou Dar. She is kenneled in the attic of the Tarasin Palace with the other damane, including three other Aes Sedai: Teslyn Baradon, Edesina Azzedin, and Guisin. Teslyn tells Mat Cauthon that Mylen or Guisin would report any escape attempts because they have accepted their role as damane.[3]
Mylen is useless as a weapon; because of the Three Oaths, she can only use the One Power as a weapon against Shadowspawn or to defend herself or another Aes Sedai. She taught Healing to Tuon, who in turn taught it to all of her damane. She is Tuon's special pride as a trainer of damane. The way Tuon speaks of her Healing hints that Mylen is at least moderately talented with it.
Search for Tuon[]
When Tuon is kidnapped by Mat, Mylen is beside herself and insists on joining Melitene on the hunt to track her down. Mylen believed that Tuon was kidnapped by Aes Sedai, and was furious and a little guilty because she herself had been Aes Sedai.
When the camp where Tuon is held is found, she goes with Karede to meet with the leader of it. Mylen is greeted by Joline Maza, Edesina and Teslyn who all try to get Mylen to come with them. Instead she shields them all. Matrim Cauthon orders her to release the shields. She channels at Mat and the weaves dissolve around him. Karede then orders her to release the shields, which she then does. She then goes with Karede and Tuon back to Ebou Dar.[5]
It is likely that Mylen fought at the Last Battle in the Seanchan ranks.
