From A Wheel of Time Wiki
—Kwamesa Aes Sedai, Sitter for the Gray Ajah
| [Source] | |
[edit] Appearance
Kwamesa is a dark and slender with a sharp nose. She is of average height.
[edit] History
She is Arafellin.
She is strong in the One Power for an Aes Sedai - equalling Sheriam, Kiruna Nachiman and Reanne Corly. Not many women possess such strength.
She has the habit of peering down her nose at everyone - possibly because of her high strength in the One Power.
She is the youngest of the Salidar Sitters. She has been Aes Sedai less than thirty-five years.
[edit] Activities
She has allied herself with the Salidar Aes Sedai and has been elected as a Sitter in the Salidar Hall.
Because she is the youngest Sitter, she intones the ritual phrase Are there any present save women? in the call to vote for a new Amyrlin followed by her stripping to the waist. This tradition dates to the end of the Breaking of the World. In a similar vein, it is also her duty as youngest Sitter to make the formal call to seal the Hall away in a closed sitting. The wording of this appears in the header quote on this page.
She is second woman to cast her vote for Egwene al'Vere becoming Amyrlin in the initial round of voting, taking little time to make up her mind.
She votes yes on the Rebel Aes Sedai declaring war on Elaida do Avriny a'Roihan.
She votes for an agreement with the Black Tower and puts herself forward as a candidate to negotiate a treaty with the Black Tower, highlighting the importance of the Gray Ajah in such an undertaking.
At Lelaine Akashi's emergency meeting of the Hall, she stands to accept the offer from the Dragon Reborn of bonding forty-seven Asha'man.
