What happened here
- Night on the rooftops
Crouched on a rooftop across from the Stone with his fireworks bundled on his back, Mat is choosing a way in when veiled spears find him in the dark.
- A cell beneath the Stone
Waking bruised and shielded in a cell beneath the Stone, with a Black sister on guard outside the door, Egwene resolves to try the World of Dreams once more.
- In the Heart of the Stone
Reaching the Heart at last, Rand finds the crystal sword turning where his dreams showed it, and a white-haired man in a striped coat waiting among the columns.
- Down to the cells
While Egwene searches a dream of the cells beneath the Stone, Mat and Juilin come down to the waking ones, past a room hung with whips and irons.
- Dawn over the Stone
As Tear wakes and looks up at the Stone, Moiraine, the women, Mat and an Aiel chief meet in the High Lords' council room to weigh what the night has won.
