Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. A lot of people don't realize this, and I don't like them to know, but my real name is . . .
2. I don't really care what other people think of me, but I can't help but notice when people sneer at me for wearing boy's clothes. What can I say? It's a habit I picked up living with my dad, who worked in the mines in this mountain range.
3. After my dad died, I had to live with my three Aunts near Baerlon. They TRIED to make me into a proper lady, but to no avail. Do you know what their names were?
4. It was shortly after Bel Tine that Mistress Alys came back to Baerlon from her visit to the Two Rivers. I was working as a serving girl at this inn at the time.
5. I was shocked when I saw all the people come into the yard of the inn with Mistress Alys. You see, I have this talent for 'seeing things' about people. You can be sure that whatever I 'see' about a person will come true. I saw lots more stuff than I usually do when that group walked in. What I saw about that sheepherder REALLY shocked me. I learned that I would . . .
6. It wasn't until much later that I got a message from Moiraine Sedai (Mistress Alys) that she wanted me to go to this city and help her. Unfortunately, she never showed up. While I was there I became friends with Egwene and Nynaeve, who I met in Baerlon, and Elayne, who I was surprised to discover was one of the 'other two women' that I would share Rand with. That was a little tough to swallow when I met her. Do you know what city it was?
7. Do you have any idea how disgusted I was when we were tricked by that Red Sister into going into the Ways? She told us that we were going to help Rand, but instead delivered us into the hands of some invaders who call themselves the Seanchan. That Red Sister (but I'm sure she was Black Ajah!) was named . . .
8. Luckily, Nynaeve and Elayne rescued Egwene and me from the clutches of the Seanchan. Afterwards we hooked up with Rand and Perrin and company, and I stayed with them over the winter. I knew that Rand was special after everything I 'saw' about him. But can you believe that he is claiming to be the Dragon Reborn. That woolheaded sheepherder! Then he went and ran off after forcing his dreams on everybody in the camp. He was dreaming about . . .
9. After Rand ran off, Moiraine Sedai sent me back to the White Tower to update the Amyrlin Seat on what had happened at Falme. I once again received a shock when I saw all the auras of death and conflict around many of the Aes Sedai and Warders. Sure enough, it wasn't long before there was a coup in the Tower. Do you know what happened to the Amyrlin Seat and her Keeper?
10. I managed to talk the Mistress of the Kitchens (my inadvertent protector at the Tower) into freeing the Amyrlin Seat and the Keeper, but we were apprehended on the Tower grounds by Gawyn, Elayne's brother. Even though he and his followers had fought against the Amyrlin Seat, he ended up letting us go. What was his group called?
11. We escaped the White Tower, but it wasn't long before we got into trouble. Siuan Sanche, the former Amyrlin Seat, was trying to lead us to where the rebel Aes Sedai were gathering, when we were accused of trespassing, assault, theft, and the killing of livestock by one Admer Nem in a small town in Andor. Lord Gareth Bryne himself presided at our farce of a trial. What was the name of the town?
12. We eventually found out where the rebel Aes Sedai were holed up. Siuan found one of her eyes-and-ears at the Nine Horse Hitch in Lugard who passed on a cryptic name that apparently told Siuan where to find them. What was that name again?
13. We finally reached the rebel Aes Sedai, and for a while things were OK. Then Lord Bryne showed up. Our sworn oaths came back to haunt us. More specifically me, as Siuan always passed on whatever she was tasked with to me. Even so, it was nice to see some old friends again - Nynaeve and Elayne arrived not much longer after we did. They had someone with them that reminded me of someone from stories of legend. She reminded me a lot of . . .
14. Poor Elayne. We'd come to terms with each other and our love for Rand, but then I found out I'd be going with the embassy to Rand in Caemlyn, and she had to stay behind. I know she wanted so much to be with him, but . . . When I first saw him, I was so elated! He looked so regal and handsome sitting there. Was he sitting on the Lion Throne of Andor?
15. While in Caemlyn I stayed at The Crown of Roses with the Salidar embassy. It was a good thing I did, too. When Rand put limits on their movement around Caemlyn they decided that a show of force might put Rand in his place. After that little episode Rand learned of more Aes Sedai entering the city. When he realized that there were enough in the city to shield him and keep him shielded, he opened a gateway and whisked me to Cairhien with him. Do you know how many Aes Sedai it takes to shield a male who can channel and hold him shielded?
16. Shortly after arriving in Cairhien, Rand received the Tower embassy in his chambers. That's when they sprang their trap and shielded Rand, taking me captive as well. Apparently the young girls with them were recentyl raised Aes Sedai or perhaps Novices or Accepted - able to participate in a link without having the ageless Aes Sedai look. Who took over leadership of the Tower 'embassy' after this honorless attack?
17. The Aiel and other supporters of Rand's caught up with us at Sufai's Wells where there was a great battle. The Asha'man were brutally efficient in the fight.
18. Well, after all that was taken care of, Rand got back to his planning and, and . . . He's changed so much since I first saw him in Baerlon! He's trying to improve life in Cairhien and Caemlyn and Tear by starting schools! Oh! That reminds me of that poor old scholar who was killed for helping Rand. I so enjoyed spending time with him. Do you remember his name?
19. Elayne, Aviendha (the other woman who loves Rand) and I came to an understanding, and Elayne did something to Rand that allowed us all to be aware of each other and always know where the others are. I feel so much closer to everyone now! What did she do?
20. I've been with Rand now for some time. Aviendha has been, as well. Poor Elayne has to be off in Andor trying to secure her throne. Things seem to be getting harder, and with so many enemies around, we have to spend a lot of time kind of in hiding. For a long time Rand was worried about going mad, as all male channelers have done since the Age of Legends, but he says that he finally fixed that problem. What did he do? I'm still not quite clear on that.
