Asked by SiriWarbreaker

In Lord of Chaos, chapter 30, the secret hand signal of the Black Ajah is revealed to be hands held at the side with both thumbs thrust hard through the first two fingers.

In addition, each member of the Black Ajah is a member of a heart. Each heart has three members. A Black Ajah member knows the other two members of her heart and another member, who the other two members of her heart do not know.

Can a warder be bonded to more than one Aes Sedai at a time?

User Avatar

Asked by SiriWarbreaker

Yes, although it is almost unheard of. The Aes Sedai can bond him separately or at the same time using a combined weave. This combined weave can also include non channelers.

Is it possible to break a bond between an Aes Sedai and a warder without damage?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes, an Aes Sedai can release her Warder voluntarily with no harm, although this is almost never done. A bond can only be forcibly dissolved by the Severing of the Aes Sedai, or the death of either party.

What kind of bond does an Aes Sedai have with the warders?

User Avatar

Asked by Archlawrence92

An Aes Sedai uses a special weave of the Power to link another person to herself. This link is referred to as the Warder Bond and is used to provide a protector (Warder) for the Aes Sedai. The bond allows the Aes Sedai to know information about the Warder such as mood, health and general location and vice-versa. The Aes Sedai can also draw strength from her Warder using the bond, and can use it to force the Warder to obey if necessary. The bond provides the Warder with extra stamina and endurance, allowing them to continue on under harsh conditions much longer than a normal person.

How did Mat get the hanging scar in the Wheel of Time series?

User Avatar

Asked by Myrab51

In book four Mat went with Rand into Rhuidean in the Waste while Rand was in a Ter'angreal that was showing him the history of the Aiel people. Mat went through a Ter'angreal doorway that led him to the world of the Eelfinn, where he hoped to get answers to questions he had asked in another Ter'angreal doorway he had entered in Tear (The Aelfinn doorway). However, instead of answering questions, the Eelfinn gave Mat things he inadvertently asked for, like giving him memories from other people to fill the holes in his memory and giving him the Ter'angreal fox necklace that prevented the One Power from being used on him. He also asked for a way out of the Eelfinn world, which they provided although not in the way he would have wished. Since Mat did not set a price before asking for these things the Eelfinn set the price themselves. They took him outside of the doorway, back to Rhuidean, and hung him from Avendesora, the Tree of Life. But luckily for Mat and all us fans out there, Rand was able to get to him in time.

Where in the Wheel of Time series did Rand find Mat hanging?

User Avatar

Asked by Myrab51

Chapter 26 of book 4, The Shadow Rising. It was after Rand came out of the columns, where he learned about the Aiel's history, in Rhuidean. Mat was hanging from the Tree of Life, Avendesora.

What are Aes Sedai?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Aes Sedai: Wielders of the One Power. Since the Time of Madness,

all surviving Aes Sedai are women. Widely distrusted and feared,

even hated, they are blamed by many for the Breaking of the World,

and are thought to meddle in the affairs of nations. At the same time,

few rulers will be without an Aes Sedai adviser, even in lands where the

existence of such a connection must be kept secret. After some years of

channelling the One Power, Aes Sedai take on an ageless quality, so that

an Aes Sedai who is old enough to be a grandmother may show no signs of age

except perhaps a few gray hairs.

What is the relationship between Damane and sul'dam in 'The Great Hunt'?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Sul'dam are essentially trainers and the leash-holders of the damane. Damane are used as weapons and treated like pets, and are trained to accept and even agree with this treatment. The relationship can be a mutually affectionate one, and most damane look upon sul'dam as their masters and protectors. It must be noted that the sul'dam are very good at what they do and can even reduce former Aes Sedai to this state.
