Egwene (left in white) Nynaeve (middle in white) form part of the five potential Dragons that Moiraine took under her wing, after season one they both went back to The White Tower to become novice and learn how to control their powers, both usually can only wild their power when they are under a lot of pressure, fear, anger, they has to start from the bottom as most Aes Sadai do, Egwene has all the willing to learn but Nynaeve on the other hand refuse, she is hard headed and feels she do not belong there but at the same time wont leave because she is there to protect Egwene, latter on we will find out that this is not so true and that formula doesn’t work anymore.
Things between Moiraine and Lan are very tense, she doesn't tell him much and he is lost without her, for some inexplicably reason she keeps pushing him away, not sure if she feels he will die for nothing protecting her or if she doesn't need him to protect her anymore, the bond between Warder and Aes Sadai is close to what loves feels, its said that the Warder can feel everything his Aes Sedai does, if she is afraid, sick, in pain, worry, not been able to know all this things from Moiraine is killing Lan and he is doesn't seem to be patient enough to know that Moiraine doesnt want him close for now, he thinks he know her because they had this bond before but you never stop knowing a person, you cant go through all circumstances in life with everyone you think you know.
At The White Tower Aes Sedai fight for power, they all do in some way, Liandrin Guirale is part of the Red Ajah, those Aes Sedai who police the misuse of the power, they have no Warder and are very powerful, Liandrin has shown in season one how she show no mercy for the enemy, she is trying to show Nynaeve her true power because she thinks she is the best weapon that has come to their door step in over a thousand years, the perfect weapon against The Dark One, she tries to make Nynaeye to focus her anger and wild the power but she sort of understand Liandrin just wants to manipulate her.
Next to Liandrin is Mat, who is in a very comfortable “jail” because he has a history of taking a dagger from a place that was full of shadows, shadows that belong to The Dark One, he got posses by this dark power that was on the dagger but at the same time he was feeding from it becoming more powerful like he was destine to use the dark power, now Mat is under observation, prisoner at The White Tower, seems that Liandrin is the one in charge to watch him.
