Morgase Trakand, at the time, Queen of Andor, sat as judge in the case of Tham Felmley's brother's murder. During the trial, several people condemned him as the murderer. At the end of the trial, Morgase found him guilty and sentenced him to hang. Two years later, it was revealed that one of Tham's workers, also one of the men who condemned him at the trial, was the murderer. Morgase speaks of this example to Perrin Aybara when discussing the difficulties of being a ruler with him.
