The Path of Daggers/Chapter 2

==Summary==
Elayne watches the Windfinders as they come through Aviendha's Gateway, judging their strength in the Power. Most are not that strong, but three of the youngest are very strong, one as strong as Nynaeve. Horses bring through what was found in the Kin storeroom and Elayne begins sorting to get rid of the junk and see if she can find anything useful. The Windfinders have trouble mounting their horses since they have never ridden before. The Warders return from scouting and indicate that there is no danger nearby. Elayne finds a small amber turtle brooch angreal and several ter'angreal:
* a blue stone root-like carving
* a small ivory box with red and green stripes
* a flexible black rod (which Nynaeve says feels like pain)
* a tiny crystal vial filled with dark red liquid
* a two-foot bronze statue of a jolly bearded man holding a book
Vandene warns Elayne to stop messing with unknown objects of the Power: twenty-five years ago an Aes Sedai named Martine Janata burned herself out doing just that. 
Suddenly, Merilille shrieks, startling everyone. Elayne sees that Aviendha has come through the Gateway and is in the process of Unweaving it; a dangerous, nearly impossible, task. Aviendha's reasoning is that the residue could be read by one of the Forsaken on their tails, if they possess the talent for it, which Aviendha also possesses. Vandene and the other Aes Sedai try to bully Aviendha but she stands up to them and mocks their inability to do what she can. 
Nynaeve gets everyone moving toward the farm while Aviendha privately tells Elayne that the man she saw watching frightened her. Elayne thinks Aviendha would never admit this to anyone else. 
As Moridin watches the party depart, he is frustrated because he doesn't understand how Aviendha was able to make the Gateway disappear completely without any residue. He angrily reflects on other skills the people of this time had discovered that no one in his own Age had dreamed of: a way to Heal severing, the Warder bond, and now Unweaving. 
A servant, Madic, approaches to report the rumors of what the party took with them, including a ter'angreal that could fix the weather, called the Bowl of the Winds. Rage surges through Moridin—the Great Lord strained to fix the seasons in place, and will be very displeased if that is changed. Moridin realizes that he has inadvertently killed Madic in his anger and use of the True Power, but no matter. He must find the women before they can use the Bowl of the Winds or meddle with any of his carefully laid plans.
 
The gholam smells blood and finds the corpse of Madic. He begins to feed while planning to follow the women. He can feel where they Traveled to.
