Rumors suggest that after his victory, the Savior has sent forces to Cairhien. A naval force is sent to Altara attacking its water borders. Those men who managed to land in Ebou Dar found themselves dealing with many traps and machinations created to fight back. The battle between the two waring forces ended in victory for Altara.

Shallenne Tyrell Mahanon and Meeko Unega are elected as Ambassadors of Tar Valon.
	* 996 NE In an unprecedented move, Tear and Illian combine their remaining forces together, to strike at the Savior's men. In turn, it seems the Savior gained support of other varying people's.

Those along the borderlands take the time to gear up for any possible invasion.
	* 995 NE A few months into 995, Accepted Jaice mysteriously disappears from the Tower after channeling into an unknown ter'angreal that apparently functioned as a kind of gateway. It pulled her to Cairhien, where a similar-but-broken ter'angreal was found. Together with Maeve, a former Accepted, they managed to produce a working copy of the ter'angreal, rediscovering a lost Talent. The war between Tear and Illian continues. Small groups of bandits pillage and plunder the spoils of the war, taking advantage of the smaller villages without protection.
