*I* reckon that while we're still working on Sids, I will throw THIS one out there :):

 

 

The last hope that this “binder” was something else vanished as she felt the oath settle on her, as if she suddenly wore a garment that covered her far too tightly from her scalp to the soles of her feet. Throwing back her head, she screamed. In part that was because it suddenly seemed as if the burning of her skin was being pressed deep into her flesh, but mainly, it was pure despair.

 

“Be quiet!” She was snapped at, sharply. “I do not want to listen to you wailing!” Her teeth clicked shut, nearly biting her tongue, and she struggled to swallow her sobs. Nothing but obedience was possible, now.

BONUS!!!

 

 

A pleasant surprise to have time to find much of anything useful with al’Thor and those puppies who called themselves Asha’man constantly in and out of Sammael’s chambers in the Great Hall of the Council. They had stripped it bare of what she had not taken. Dangerous puppies, all of them, especially al’Thor. And she had not wanted to risk anyone being able to draw a line from Sammael to her

This is Galina Casban, and I believe it is in TPoD

This is Graendal, also in TPoD in her palace before Moggy and Cyndane (and Shaidar Haran) arrive.

 

 

Back to my quote, it is neither Siuan nor Min, although it takes place with the Salidar Aes Sedai.

Sid...Verin?

No sir.

clue: This takes place shortly after an incident with the PoV character and another character described later in the series as having "shoulders an axe-handle wide"

Nynaeve in LoC chapter: To Heal Again?

After she healed Logain that is.

This is correct. They were trying to make her angry by pretending to think she didn't do it back when she was blocked. Logain was described as having shoulders an axe-handle wide by Toveine Gazal in TPoD "The Extra Bit".

I'll try one here :D

He did not mean to eavesdrop on the women's talk, but some of the words reached out and grabbed him.

"Sounds crazy to me."

Someone with a PoV overhearing women's conversation, and they say "Sounds crazy to me." I'm going to suppose that these women are not among the main characters, nobles, or Aes Sedai. Min might say something like that, but I can't remember her fitting this situation. I'm guessing at an inn, or maybe a servant's area in a palace. I don't remember this from Mat's PoV's. Perrin visited several inns in TDR, and he has exceptional hearing... Thom had a PoV in the Stone of Tear in TSR where he was talking to servants... Rand was all over small inns in TEOTW. Rand was at an inn in WH in Far Madding. Lan was at an inn in NS. Rand was in the women's quarters in Fal Dara in TGH... Perrin in So Habor, but I don't think so. Bayle Domon was at Easing the Badger in TGH, but I don't think this is him.

 

It sounds like it might be Rand, so I'll guess Rand in TEoTW. It might be one they ate in the kitchen in, but I can't remember the circumstances.

I'm very impressed :)

It is indeed Rand in an inn in TEoTW, the inn is The Dancing Cartman and the chapter is Four Kings in Shadow.

The women were discussing the darkfriend Howal Gode.

Posted

ah, so they think he's crazy for staying there at the worst inn in town with his silks.

 

(I was going to say Perrin in TDR but changed my guess after I typed it out :P )

 

Let me try one out:

"You must miss him," **** said, trying to edge around her and her wide skirts. She gave a tinkling laugh as if he had said the funniest thing in the world.

 

bonus points for naming 'her' ;)

heh, you're right. but the lady was Alaine Chuliandred.

 

Also, I liked Thom's line shortly afterward: "I recognize those three, boy. Breane Taborwin alone would give you an education such as every man should have at least once in his life, if he can live through it. Worried about their husbands. I like that, boy."

Well, I was SORTA right, but now I am going to pull out a Real STUMPER!!!

 

 

She was suspicious of any damane who had called herself Aes Sedai. History fascinated her, and she had even read translations from the myriad of languages that had existed before the Consolidation began. Those ancient rulers reveled in their murderous, capricious rule, and delighted in setting down how they came to power and how they crushed neighboring states and undermined other rulers. Most had died by assassination, often at the hands of their own heirs or followers. She knew very well what Aes Sedai were like.

There aren't a lot of Seanchan PoV's, and this person is definitely Seanchan.

I think this is Bethamin in WH, when she's meticulously checking the kennels. She is suspicious of Teslyn.

Sure, how about this

"Do you now, boy?" She sounded almost amused. And something else he could not make out. She certainly did not look amused. "Stand up, boy, and let me have a look at you."

Ooh I got this one. That's TGH, siuan meeting Rand, his PoV, in Fal Dara. He's doing all Lan told him, and absolutely petrified, poor thing.

Absolutely right

Rand, TGH "The Dragon Reborn"
