Bargains of the Atha'an Miere

From A Wheel of Time Wiki

Below is a list of the known Bargains with the Atha'an Miere, along with the terms of each Bargain and discussed results and implications.

[edit] The Bargain with the Coramoor

This was negotiated between Merana Ambrey and Rafela Cindal, representatives of the Coramoor, and Harine din Togara Two Winds, the Extraordinary Ambassador of Mistress of Ships of the Atha'an Miere. It took place in the city of Cairhien on board the White Spray. The terms were as follows:

  1. The Atha’an Miere have promised such ships as the Coramoor needs, to sail when and where he needs them, for whatever purposes he requires.
  2. The Coramoor will not change any laws of the Atha’an Miere
  3. The Coramoor must give the Atha’an Miere land, a square one mile on each side, at every city on navigable water that he controls now or comes to control.
  4. The Coramoor agrees to keep an ambassador chosen by the Atha’an Miere with him at all times. Harine din Togara has named herself. She will be accompanied by her Windfinder, her Swordmaster and a retinue
  5. The Coramoor agrees to go promptly to a summons from the Mistress of the Ships, but not more than twice in any three consecutive years.

Rand has called upon the first term of the agreement to provide enough food for his armies in Arad Doman. He requests enough ships and food to feed one million people. [verify]

The third term of the agreement is now of critical importance because of the mass suicide of the Amayar. The Atha'an Miere were solely based on the waves and depended upon the land-dwelling Amayar to supply their ports and their ships. Without them, the entire infrastructure of the Atha'an Miere is gone. Land at every city on navigable water will replace this loss to their resources. It also fulfils some of the Jendai Prophecies.
