calf-eyes or no calf-eyes. тАЬGawyn, I am summoned to the Amyrlin. Where can I find you, when she is
done with me?тАЭ

тАЬI will be in the practice yard. The only time I can stop worrying is when I am working the sword with
Hammar.тАЭ Hammar was a blademaster, and the Warder who taught the sword. тАЬMost days IтАЩm there
until the sun sets.тАЭ

тАЬGood, then. I will come as soon as I can. And try to watch what you say. If you make the Amyrlin
angry with you, Elayne and Egwene might share in it.тАЭ

тАЬThat I cannot promise,тАЭ he said firmly. тАЬSomething is wrong in the world. Civil war in Cairhien. The
same and worse in Tarabon and Arad Doman. False Dragons. Troubles and rumors of troubles
everywhere. I donтАЩt say the Tower is behind it, but even here things are not what they should be. Or
what they seem, Elayne and Egwene vanishing isnтАЩt the whole of it. Still, they are the part that concerns
me. Iwill find out where they are. And if they have been hurt. . . . If they are dead. . . .тАЭ

He scowled, and for an instant his face was that bloody mask again. More: a sword floated above his
head, and a banner waved behind it. The long-hilted sword, like those most Warders used, had a heron
engraved on its slightly curved blade, symbol of a blademaster, and Min could not say whether it
belonged to Gawyn or threatened him. The banner bore GawynтАЩs sigil of the charging White Boar, but on
a field of green rather than the red of Andor. Both sword and banner faded with the blood.

тАЬBe careful, Gawyn.тАЭ She meant it two ways. Careful of what he said, and careful in a way she could not
explain, even to herself. тАЬYou must be very careful.тАЭ

His eyes searched her face as if he had heard some of her deeper meaning. тАЬI . . . will try,тАЭ he said
finally. He put on a grin, almost the grin she remembered, but the effort was plain. тАЬI suppose I had better
get myself back to the practice yard if I expect to keep up with Galad. I managed two out of five against
Hammar this morning, but Galad actually won three, the last time he bothered to come to the yard.тАЭ
Suddenly he appeared to really see her for the first time, and his grin became genuine. тАЬYou ought to
wear dresses more often. ItтАЩs pretty on you. Remember, I will be there till sunset.тАЭ

As he strode away with something very close to the dangerous grace of a Warder, Min realized she was
smoothing the dress over her hip and stopped immediately.The Light burn all men!

Sahra exhaled as if she had been holding her breath. тАЬHe is very good-looking, isnтАЩt he?тАЭ she said

dreamily. тАЬNot as good-looking as Lord Galad, of course. And you really know him.тАЭ It was half a
question, but only half.

Min echoed the noviceтАЩs sigh. The girl would talk with her friends in the novicesтАЩ quarters. The son of a
queen was a natural topic, especially when he was handsome and had an air about him like the hero in a
gleemanтАЩs tale. A strange woman only made for more interesting speculation. Still, there was nothing to
be done about it. At any rate, it could hardly cause any harm now.

тАЬThe Amyrlin Seat must be wondering why we havenтАЩt come,тАЭ she said.
