Just before arriving in Tar Valon, the Amyrlin Seat visits Nynaeve and Egwene in their stateroom aboard the River Queen to give them a lesson in the One Power.
In their stateroom aboard the River Queen, Egwene and Nynaeve are indulging in their own misery. Nynaeve can’t keep her stomach settled, and Egwene keeps having dreams suggesting that Rand is in trouble. If these two really are the most powerful recruits the Aes Sedai have found in years, I think the forces of the Light are in trouble.
Siuan visits and says she’ll give them a lesson in the One Power. This consists primarily of provoking Nynaeve into getting angry enough to channel, until she finally slams Siuan against the wall. When Siuan finally leaves, Nynaeve is so spitting mad that she throws a pillow against the door and calls her a hag. Nice attitude! With diplomacy skills like that, she is surely destined for great things.
The boat arrives at Tar Valon, and Sheriam Sedai shows up to escort Egwene and Nynaeve to the White Tower.
