The Dragon Reborn/Chapter 46

==Summary==
: 
Mat decides to try again to get into the palace and to deliver the letter from Elayne to Morgase. He climbs up the wall that Rand used when he first met Elayne. Mat drops down into the palace gardens, where he avoids the guards. Mat hears a man with a commanding voice talking about plots. The man tells Comar to go to Tear and quietly kill Elayne and also kill the other two which Mat realizes must be Egwene and Nynaeve. Mat wonders again what the three women are up to, going to Tear. Mat peeks through the window and sees a man muttering to himself, which must be Comar.
Tallanvor sees Mat and almost draws his blade. Mat manages to tell him he has a letter from Elayne, showing the seal. Tallanvor wants to deliver the letter but Mat tells him he promised to deliver the letter to Morgase himself. On the way to Morgase, Mat ponders on what his reward will be when he tells Morgase of the plot against her daughter. When Mat gives the letter to Morgase, Gaebril ask to see the letter. Mat realizes Gaebril is the voice he heard ordering Comar to kill Elayne so he can't reveal the plot. Gaebril reads that Elayne is out of the Tower again on a service for the Amyrlin Seat and questions Mat about it. Mat claims to be Thom Grinwell and says he knows nothing about it, as he was only visiting his sister Else. Gaebril considers putting Mat to the question, but Morgase disagrees and Gaebril lets it go. Morgase tells Mat to tell Elayne that she will not remove Elayne from the Tower prematurely after all as she had previously decided that in anger. Mat acknowledges this but doubts he will see Elayne again as he will not return to Tar Valon. Gaebril accepts Mat's tale and dismisses him with ten gold marks. Gaebril then starts talking to Morgase about claiming the Sun Throne of Cairhien and Tallanvor leads Mat away.
