Summary[]
- Point of view: Perrin Aybara
Perrin on his horse Stepper, along with Uno Nomesta, Masema Dagar, Ragan and two other unnamed Shienaran soldiers, are waiting for a woman coming to see Moiraine Sedai. Perrin finds himself using his wolf-enhanced senses and tries to stop using them. He almost tries to contact the wolves to find out more about what is in the mountains around them but refuses to. The Shienarans are deferring to Perrin and he isn't sure why they should since he sees himself as just a blacksmith apprentice. Perrin spots the woman first in the distance coming from the west. Masema spots a raven which Perrin kills with an arrow.
The woman comes into view of the waiting party, and everyone see she's one of the Tuatha'an. They ride out to meet her, where Perrin starts subtly questioning her to see if she's the one they are waiting for. The woman, called Leya, gives the name Moiraine, confirming she is the one. Perrin asks another question to confirm her identity and is satisfied with the answer.
The men start guiding Leya to the camp of the Dragon Reborn. Perrin begins to make idle conversation with her which quickly becomes slightly heated on the subject of the Way of the Leaf. Perrin ends the conversation and they ride through the wilderness in silence until they reach the camp.
