    A Moment in Tyme's Current Timeline of Major Events


In our game, our timeline of the events in Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time
series have occurred up to the end of book nine, 'Winter's Heart'.  From
there, our timeline has drifted into a mirror reality of sorts, such as
what one might find if one were to use a Portal stone, and find oneself
in an alternate version of the world Robert Jordan has written, only with
different events.


1000 NE

The season is currently:
Spring

All channelers, both male and female, would have felt a great use
of both Saidin and Saidar in the far western reaches of Andor,
beyond Baerlon.  This great pulse of channeling was felt all
around the world, it is said even as far away as Seanchan and
the mysterious land of Shara.  When it ended, men who can channel
would notice that they no longer feel sick when seizing Saidin.
This is not yet widely known, and most do not believe it is true,
but it appears as though Saidin, the male half of the True Source,
has been cleansed.



THE WHITE TOWER

Elaida do Avriny a'Roihan has been the Amyrlin Seat in the White
Tower, and with her rise to the Stole and the fall of Siuan Sanche,
many Aes Sedai left the Tower and created a Rebel Tower in the small
village of Salidar in Altara.  They chose Egwene al'Vere, an Accepted
who had not even been raised to the Shawl as their Amyrlin, due to
her exceptional strength in the One Power and, some say, hoping they
could control her due to her youth and inexperience.  Egwene, however
turned out to be more of a handful than expected, and proved herself
to be quite fit for the job.  After over a year of rebellion, these
Salidar Aes Sedai have returned to Tar Valon with Egwene at their
head, and Gareth Bryne leading their army.  Unfortunately, Egwene
was captured in the attempt to take the Tower, and held prisoner for
a time.  Eventually, however, slowly but surely, she managed to win
the Aes Sedai to her cause, pointing out the terrible mistakes made
by Elaida.  As a result, Elaida was deposed, stripped of the stole,
stilled and sent to live out the rest of her days on the Farm.  The
whereabouts of her former Keeper of the Chronicles, Alviarin, are
unknown at this time.  Meanwhile, the White Tower must now contend
with old rivalries, mend their differences, and become strong once
again.  Egwene must now struggle for the respect of those who think
she is too young for the job, and who resent that she has not yet
taken the Three Oaths, nor passed the test to be come a true Aes
Sedai.


THE BLACK TOWER

The Black Tower has sent many of its Asha'man throughout the lands
on an effort to recruit new members.  Far too many of the new
recruits do not survive the process, but perhaps now with the
taint cleansed, this will prove a more promising endeavor.  Mazrim
Taim appears to have taken command of the Black Tower in the
absence of the Dragon.  Asha'man have also begun bonding Aes
Sedai, particularly those who were sent by Elaida with the intent
of bonding and/or gentling them.  Logain is apparently off in
Cairhien, doing recruiting work for the Lord Dragon.


THE AIEL

The main contingent of Aiel loyal to the Car'a'carn remain in Cairhein,
and there are, per the books, quite a few with Perrin in his pursuit of
the Shaido through Altara in search of Faile and the other captives,
including Morgase and Queen Alliandre of Ghealdan. There are two small,
but notable contingents elsewhere.  One is camped near Tar Valon to assist
Egwene, should she need it, in her early days as Amyrlin at the reunited
White Tower.  The other contingent is in Caemlyn to provide similar
assistance to Elayne.

Saban, 1000 NE - The majority of the Aiel in Tar Valon have departed,
heading south to Andor.  Only about 1000 Aiel remain in Tar Valon to
assist Egwene.  There are rumors that some manner of arrangement has
been made to encourage Gaidin to train with the Aiel.  

ANDOR

Elayne Trakand has returned to Andor to lay claim to the Lion Throne
with Morgase presumed dead.  She has attained the support of the number
of Houses she needs to secure her claim, but after much trouble, including
an attempt by the Black Ajah, and those against her claim, to kidnap her.
There are still some Houses who do not support her.  They are as follows:

House Sarand (High Seat Elenia Sarand now imprisoned.)
House Arawn  (High Seat Naean Arawn now imprisoned.)
House Marne  (High Seat Arymilla Marne now imprisoned.)
House Traemane (Still sore over High Seat sentenced to flogging by Morgase)
House Candraed (High Seat Lady Danine unable to make up her mind.)


Elayne has appointed Birgitte Trahelion, presumably from Kandor, as
Captain-General of Andor.  The First Prince of the Sword, Gawyn Trakand,
is currently in Tar Valon assisting with the reunification of the White
Tower.  Elayne has also secured the assistance of nine Windfinders of
the Seafolk, and she is also accompanied by many members of the Kin.
There are also Aiel in Caemlyn, some of whom advise and protect Elayne.
It is also said that Elayne is filling out the ranks of the Queen's
Guard with mercenaries and Hunters for the Horn.  Additionally,
during a battle with the Seanchan, a group of twenty-nine sul'dam and
five damane were delivered to the Royal Palace by Mazrim Taim after
Rand's recent attack on the Seanchan.

It is rumored that Elayne is pregnant.  It is uncertain who the father
is at this time.  It is also rumored that Elayne plans to lay claim to
the Sun Throne as well, in the near future.

The Black Tower is in Andor to stay, though Elayne has demanded that she
be allowed to regularly inspect the progress of its building, and to keep
tabs on what the Asha'man are doing.  She was given a tour personally by
Mazrim Taim, along with Birgitte and a retinue of Queen's Guards.  What
relations the Queen has with the Black Tower are yet to be seen, but
Elayne has openly declared that she will honor Rand's amnesty for male
channelers, and it's obvious that she doesn't really have the power to
make them go away.


THE BAND OF THE RED HAND

Now successfully escaped from Altara, Mat and his companions have left
Luca's traveling menagerie with a small party, to rejoin the rest of his
company.  The Band of the Red Hand is said to be currently on its way to
Caemlyn.  For what purpose, no one seems to know.  Perhaps it is in
answer to Queen Elayne's recent call for mercenaries to fill out the
ranks of the Queen's Guards.

CAIRHIEN

Dobraine Taborwin is currently Steward in Cairhien, appointed by Rand
just before he left with Cadsuane and Nynaeve.  Logain and some of the
Asha'man are also located in Cairhien, presumably to look for new recruits.

TEAR

Darlin Sisnera is currently Rand's steward in Tear.

ILLIAN

Gregorin den Lushenos is currently Rand's steward in Illian.  The
whereabouts of King Mattin Stepaneos is uncertain at this time,
though it is rumored he is being kept as a 'guest' in the White Tower.

Arad Doman

Surprisingly, Arad Doman is still holding its own against the Seanchan
invaders under the leadership of Lord Rodel Ituralde.  King Alsalam Saeed
Almadar, however, appears to have gone missing, presumed to be in hiding,
along with his family, 'for their own protection.'

BORDERLANDS

The Borderlands are vulnerable, with the majority of its armies south
of Andor searching for Rand.  There are far too few armsmen to protect
the Blightborder, and this has many people concerned.  Especially since
the harsh winter finally seems to be coming to an end, which is the only
thing that seems to have kept the Shadow from overwhelming the Borderlands.
Many eyes look to the north with fear, wondering why their rulers would
abandon those vital lands at such a time.

GHEALDAN

Ghealdan is in a very war-torn state at this point in the timeline. The
Dragonsworn, who at first seemed to follow the Prophet with a firm devotion,
now seem divided, given Masema's strange behavior.  It's rumored that he
is even allied with the High Lady Suroth of the Seanchan, throwing further
havoc into the mix.  Additionally, the Children of the Light under Eamon
Valda have retreated into Ghealda, in order to escape the rule of the Seanchan.
There is rumor of a Lord Perrin Goldeneyes, who is apparently gathering an
army, and they are in some sort of conflict with the Shaido Aiel in the area.  
All of these things make for a very volatile brew, and so the nation is not
producing goods as it normally would, and is filled with fleeing refugees.
More chaotic still, some of those refugees are leaving Ghealdan, while
some are coming to flee the Seanchan.  Queen Alliandre is rumored to have
abdicated her throne, and sworn fealty to Lord Goldeneyes, though this
can hardly be believed.  Other rumors say she has disappeared entirely.

SEANCHAN

Lands the Seanchan currently control:

Tarabon
Almoth Plain
Amadicia
Altara


The Corenne has arrived and landed in Ebou Dar, and with it, the
Daughter of the Nine Moons, who disappeared from Altara not long ago,
leaving the High Lady Suroth in charge of the Corenne.  Queen Tylin
Qintara is dead, and Prince Beslan is also missing.  Even so, the
Seanchan hold a firm grip on the land, putting an end to much of
the violence in the Rahad, and bringing with them many crafters,
farmers, merchants, and other common folk.

The Seanchan have also overrun Amadicia, driving the Children of
the Light out, or chaining them up in work-gangs, as they do with
all those who resist the swearing of the Oaths.  The Seanchan invaded
Amadicia, capturing Amador and the Fortress of the Light in a daring
assault using airborne troops dropped into the city by to'raken. Attempts
by the Children to retake the city in alliance with the Amadician army
were defeated at the Battle of Jeramel. High Lady Suroth is said to have
taken up residence in the Fortress of the Light, but that she may now
be in Altara.  Stories differ.

Even so, the Seanchan have suffered their own losses.  Rand, leading
a large group of Asha'man, ravaged the Seanchan, halting their attempt
to invade Illian.  The Seanchan lost twenty-nine sul'dam and five damane,
and now must work to conceal secrets that have been learned by both the
Oathbreakers and their own people.   The Daughter of the Nine Moons has
gone missing, along with her Voice, Selucia.  Seekers for Truth are hunting
down a pair of rogue sul'dam, a member of the Low Blood by the name of
Egeanin, and a man by the name of Mat Cauthon is wanted for questioning
in connection with these events.

The Seanchan have been wounded, but they are still a force to be
reckoned with, and are perhaps even more intent on capturing more
damane than ever, and forcing the nations to become a part of the
Empire.

THE CHILDREN OF THE LIGHT

The Children of the Light are largely split.  Some of them have fallen
under the sway of the Seanchan, and have begun grudgingly serving them
under the command of Eamon Valda.  Others, however, have broken away,
and they are in the process of trying to convince Elayne, Queen of
Andor, to allow them an official embassy in Caemlyn.
