Question about a quote from Eye of the World

[RandTherin6814]

I am currently rereading WOT for the first time since first reading it. I was just reading the following quote from chapter 12.

 

“You must handle it,” Moiraine said in answer to something unheard from Lan. “He will remember too much as it is, and no help for it. If I stand out in his thoughts. . . .”

 

I am trying to figure out what this might be referring to and can't remember what it might be. If somebody could point out what this is meant to reference I would appreciate it.

chapter 12 of which book?

It is from the first book when they are crossing the river to leave Two Rivers.

The ferryman.

just noticed the thread title.  did not notice at the time of my previous post.

 

like another poster told, "his" refers to the ferryman.

it seems she did not want the ferryman to think about her more than necessary.

Ohhhhhh, ok that makes sense. I started reading chapter 12 at the beginning of a reading session and didn't make that connection. WAY over thought that one, thanks guys!
