Perrin has a restless night either thinking of Faile being hurt by the things he said or by watching him mount a gallows. He heads to Loial's room while servants clean up after the battle with the Trollocs. Loial has been writing down the events of last night in his journal. The room is filled with flowers. Faile steps out from among them and announces that Loial is a hero, having saved many children from the Trollocs. Elayne resolves to write another letter to Rand, this time chastising him instead of the previous letter that expresses her love for him.
