Also, there is an even greater oddity: travelers, a man and a woman. She goes veiled, and is dressed more richly (though not ornately) than anyone remembers seeing in Emond’s Field before. He wears scale armor and carries a pair of swords (one long and one short), plus a third, longest of all, tied to his saddle. They arrive on the day of the beginning, causing great wonder, for the road from Emond’s Field south leads only to Parry Coomb. They give no reason for their arrival, nor do they say how long they will stay. The woman’s name is Moiraine, and the man is called Lan.
Nyneve is suspicious of them, but they offer to pay in gold, and that is reason enough in Owyn al’Vere’s mind to allow them to stay. It is not that he is greedy, but few people come to rent rooms at the tavern. He sees no harm in them. He is a friendly man, always ready to see the best in anyone and often able to bring it out, even from those others thought had no good qualities at all. This is one of the reasons he was chosen Mayor.
