"Well, I suppose since we can't get out of here for now we should try to find out where we are." Rand suggested as he wove the Mask of Mirrors around him and Min. He opened the door slightly, and seeing no one in the hall he pushed the door, creaking noisily on its hinges, open the rest of the way.
Rand and Min wandered down the hall until they came to a set of stairs leading down. They cautiously walked down the extremely long staircase. Hearing voices coming closer, they hurried to the nearest room and shut the door. "Blood and ashes." Rand muttered as he realized the voices were coming right towards them. Min saw a balcony and they hurried over to it and closed the curtain.
The door opened and four women strode in, one sat at a high backed chair behind a polished wood desk. Rand peeked through the curtain slightly and quickly closed it.
Min looked around in shock, "Uh, Rand," she said.
Rand was pacing muttering, "Blood and bloody flaming ashes. Of all the bloody-"
"Rand," Min cut in "we're in-"
"The White Tower, I know." he said. "I just saw Elaida in that room." he said with an amused grin when he felt surprise coming through the bond.
Min grinned and gave a slight shake of her head, "So, what are we going to do now?"
"I'm not sure." he said quietly. Rand peeked through the curtains again. The other women had left and Elaida was the only one in the room. His shoulder burned where the fresh stab wound was. Wincing, he turned away from Min pretending to be looking around.
Min felt the change in the bond and frowned worriedly at Rand. Looking out beyond the city's walls, Min saw something and grinned. "Can you Travel to just beyond the city walls?" she asked keeping her voice to a whisper.
Rand frowned, noticing the change in the bond, then said thoughtfully, "Maybe, since I can see it." He seized Saidin and wove the weaves for a gateway. Nothing happened. He tried it again and after a moment the gateway opened. He stepped through and Min followed. Looking around he realized that he was outside of Tar Valon. 'It worked.' he thought.
"We should get as far away as we can that way the guards don't see us." Min said and began walking towards where she had seen the fire. Rand frowned wondering where she was going and why he felt excitement in the bond. "Are you coming?" she asked. He sighed and followed her into the woods.
Yeah, I know. I like to leave you in suspense though.
