Kirstian Chalwin
Kirstian Chalwin was a Cairhienin member of the Knitting Circle, the inner leadership of the Kin in Ebou Dar, and one of the strongest women in the One Power among them.
Kirstian Chalwin was a long way from Cairhien. Her life lay far south, in Ebou Dar on the Sea of Storms, among the women of the Kin, and the company she kept was drawn from their number: Reanne Corly, Sumeko, Tamarla, Sibella, Chilares, Ieine, and Dimana were among the Kinswomen at her side.
The world around her was crowded and quarrelsome. She traveled in a party of nearly fifty, led by Elayne with Nynaeve and Aviendha beside her, and it brought together people who did not sit easily side by side: Aes Sedai sisters such as Merilille Ceandevin and Vandene Namelle, Sea Folk Windfinders under Renaile din Calon, and the Kinswomen of Ebou Dar. What united these groups was bargain and obligation, nothing more, and the coordination between them was fragile; tension ran through nearly every hour they spent in one another's company. In that difficult crowd, the Kinswomen held to one another, and Kirstian held with them.
