Aran

Aran son of Malan son of Senar was an Ogier writer who lived shortly after the Breaking of the World.
==History==
Aran was noted for his strict honesty, and his unwillingness to cite any sources that he could not verify.
Aran was the first to suggest that Ishamael had only been partially trapped in the Bore when Lews Therin Telamon and the Hundred Companions sealed the Dark One's prison. In his manuscripts, he quotes Aes Sedai who lived during the Breaking of the World who claimed there were sightings of Ishamael after the Bore was sealed. 
His manuscript was never completed, but the last pages suggest that Aran had become doubtful of his own thesis towards the end of his research.
