MeLaan is a kandra of the Seventh Generation. She wears a willowy True Body of wood; like many of her generation, its form is unnatural and exaggerated. She was raised by TenSoon, an honor rarely granted to the Third Generation – and is his strongest supporter. She idolizes him, in a combination of hero worship and crush. When TenSoon refuses to rebel against the First and Second Generations, she accuses him of abandoning them. She is present at his sentencing, when he escapes. She is in the Trustwarren- the Lord Ruler's atium cache- when the First Generation call for the Resolution.
