Chapter 34: The Last Village

This summary contains spoilers up to and including this chapter. Switch to Unspoiled mode

Rand and Mat sleep in haystacks near Carysford, where streams of travelers head to Caemlyn to see the false Dragon. Rand spots a Fade conferring with an innkeeper who is offering a bounty for two young thieves with a heron-mark sword.

Rand persuades farmer Almen Bunt to give them a ride, and Bunt talks through the night about Caemlyn, Queen Morgase, and the Aes Sedai Elaida.

Rand dreams of a Fade dragging his bound companions and wakes at dawn within sight of Caemlyn.
