If Rand was to fight back, he must learn to control the masculine half of the True Source that the Dark One had corrupted… but could he control this power? Learning that the Two Rivers were in danger, Perrin would return to their village with Faile Bashere. Elayne, Nynaeve al'Meara, Juilin Sandar and Thom Merrilin had a dangerous mission: to hunt the Black Ajah.
