Shalon din Togara Morning Tide

From A Wheel of Time Wiki

Shalon din Togara Morning Tide is the Windfinder of Clan Shodein of the Sea Folk.

[edit] Appearance

Shalon is pretty and, due to her ability to channel, still appears young.

[edit] Family

Shalon is married to Mishael, and has a younger sister Harine din Togara Two Winds, Wavemistress of Clan Shodein, who she raised.

[edit] Affair

During her time spent at the Sun Palace, Shalon met and befriended Ailil Riatin, a Cairhienin noblewoman. The friendship became sexual; a fact the pair went to some length to conceal, due to the disgrace that Shalon's extra-marial affair would cause her.

They are discovered together by Rand al'Thor shortly after the Asha'man assault on the Sun Palace and, unaware of what he has discovered, he shields Shalon and ties them up under their bed for their own safety, and for his. They are later discovered and held captive by Cadsuane Melaidhrin, and mistakenly believe she is aware of their secret, unwittingly revealing it themselves. Cadsuane and Verin Mathwin both now know the true nature of their relationship, and are using it to blackmail the pair into helping them.
