Search for the Bowl
She met Elayne and Nynaeve al'Meara in her house when Setalle Anan deposited them there mistaking them for runaway novices. When Elayne and Nynaeve refused any help Reanne sent them on their way. Later Elayne comes back to the Kin's house with Merilille Ceandevin and the rest of the Salidar embassy to confront Reanne. Reanne appeared very apologetic towards Elayne when she realized that Elayne is in fact Aes Sedai. She was overjoyed when she found out that Egwene al'Vere wanted all women who could Channel associated with the White Tower and that she might realize her dream of joining the Green Ajah. She led the women to where the Bowl of the Winds was hidden and nearly perished in the process when the Gholam attacks. She then left for the farm the Kin owned with Elayne and the rest of the Aes Sedai, the Sea Folk and the rest of the Kin with the Bowl.
Fleeing Ebou Dar

Caring for damane
When the group reached Caemlyn, a group of sul'dam and damane captured by Rand al'Thor are placed into Reanne's care. She informed Elayne that three of the damane were ready to be freed from captivity. She also sent a group of Kinswomen into Ebou Dar to try and retrieve or free any woman captured by the Seanchan.
She then Travelled with Dyelin Taravin to bring back to Caemlyn four High Seats who were throwing their support behind Elayne's claim to the Lion Throne.
She took Kara Defane and Jillari for supervised walks to introduce them to the free world. She was helping Jillari choose a last name. While on a walk she met with Elayne and informed her about Marli Noichin admitting about seeing the weaves of saidar. Elayne insists on her now being sent back to Seanchan, which shocks Reanne.
