Outside in the distance is the sound of barking and howling. Perrin screams.
Swirls of magic come to Egwene's hand and take the shape of fire. She launches it at Valda. It fizzles against his chest.
Egwene looks at Perrin. Unnoticed by Valda, the ropes binding Perrin sizzle.
The ropes snap. Perrin rises, growling, and moves toward Valda.
Valda drops his dagger. Egwene, who has also released herself, picks it up and stabs him in the shoulder. Valda drops. The clamor outside the tent is getting louder. Perrin come to his senses.

Lan runs through the halls, and finds Stepin sitting before the large statues of the Warders in the halls. Lan walks over and sees the pool of blood, from where Stepin has stabbed himself in the stomach with his dagger. Lan drops to his knees besides Stepin and rests his hand and his forehead to Stepin's shoulder.
=== Funeral ===
In Stepin's room, Stepin is laid on a bed, wearing white. Warders and Aes Sedai surround him, all wearing white. There's a deep, dirgelike chanting.
Lan steps forward. The chanting stops, and Lan places his hand on Stepin's chest. He kneels beside him. The Lead Warder begins rhythmically pounding his fist to his chest, and others join in. Lan looks up at Moiraine, and they share a look. Lan grips Stepin's hand, then pounds his fist to his own chest and cries out in anguish.
