I don't know whether you left her out deliberately or forgot her, but I've got the feeling that the presence of Duharra Basaheen (Red / Black) in Caemlyn is of some significance for ToM

Linda said...

Yes, I should add her.

I think I missed this, but how do you know the Seanchan got away with 40 damane?

Bill Morgan said...

Oh, and thanks.
