did the atha'an miere steal tuon ship?

just a minor curiosity

in KoD 22, when there is the seafolk assembly, they are holding it atop one of the great seanchan ships stolen during the escape from ebou dar. it is described as very big and with balconies. there are also regular chairs, not the usual stuff attached to the ship. those things point to a luxury cruise ship designed for a noble patron. and maybe there are more similarities in the descriptions that i missed.

is there any confirmation that the ship is indeed the victory of kidron that tuon used in WH 14?

I never saw it mentioned, but with those kind of details it seems that this is very likely, just not spelled out for us readers.  Kind of fitting, the Seafolk making off with Tuon's ship.  Quite a prize for the Seafolk.

I disagree. All the Seanchan ships were different from the Sea folk ships. No reason to believe the sea folk capture any specific ship or that this ship was that ship.

that said, it is possible, good eye.

It's possible but you have to remember some nobles came over with Tuon so it's possible they have just a random noble ship.
