They even called the head of the Black’s Mother.  “Please have a seat, we have much to discuss.”<br/><br/>Settling in one of two available chairs, Inari frowned.  “Indeed we do.  Progress is being made in getting more of our… friends housed in Tar Valon.  As was requested, the boundaries are being respected.  None of those we control shall be housed too closely to the Tower and the meddling women.”  Getting more darkfriends in Tar Valon was always tricky but subtle, slow maneuvering had allowed them to get a few residences set up for some of their own.  “However, there is a problem.”  She added, her frown deepening.  “We seem to not be alone in our attempts.  Others have been spotted in Tar Valon and acting on orders that aren’t from our cluster.  Were the orders given to more than just us?”  Inside the Tower, it was necessary for the Black Ajah to be unaware of all of its members.  If one fell, the others could still be freed to act as necessary.  Instead, they only knew the identity of two other members, creating a network that was headed by what Inari thought of as the Dark Mother.<br/><br/>Jaelynn sighed behind her dark hooded cloak, her face lost to Inari’s eyes.  “That I don’t know.  There is every possibility that all of us are under orders to bring friends to Tar Valon.  In any case, I have sent a request upward for more information.  If they are led by our own, then our sisters need to get control over their friends.”  Drumming her fingers on the table, Jaelynn shook her head.  “We should continue as we have been ordered but be cautious.  Our friends are well in line but others in the city have been…foolish.  We don’t want them leading to our friends or us.”  She paused, “What of Theraeve?”<br/><br/>Inari’s face twisted in loathing at the name alone.  For a time, Inari had hoped to bring the other Red into their ranks.  Her anger might have made her a wonderful addition to their numbers but it was not an option anymore.  After some investigation, Inari was able to tie the woman to the Amyrlin Seat.  Though she had no idea how deep the relationship went as she had stopped investigating the moment she recognized it, knowing that the two got along was enough to remove the possibility of Theraeve joining them.  “I’ve not made any progress yet.  And believe me, I’ve tried.”  Running and hand over her chin, she started thoughtfully at the table.  “We could likely smoke her out with the yellow that both visits her and has travelled with her.”  She mused, pondering that possibility.  Shayella was annoyingly friendly and sweet and it would give Inari much pleasure to hear her screams.<br/><br/>“No.”  Jaelynn said, shaking her head.  “Leave the yellow where she is for the time being.  She’s unimportant.”  Though it went unseen, the woman rolled her eyes, “She has no ties to anyone of import at the Tower.  She’s not attached to a Sitter or even anyone higher as far as I have been able to tell.”  She paused, “But her death or disappearance would be more trouble than it’s worth for someone so unremarkable.  How many of the Gaidin do you think would join in a hunt for the blasted healer?  Likely, it wouldn’t just smoke out Theraeve.”  She sighed, “If it were someone that could bring us something useful or even give us information, I would risk it but she’s a nothing and it’s not worth risking exposure.”<br/><br/>Silent for a moment, Inari’s green eyes studied her own hand resting on the table.  While it would have been fun to destroy someone so loyal to the Tower, Jaelynn was right.  They would need to seek another means of getting to Theraeve.  “I will keep at it.  That blasted woman can’t escape forever.”  She promised though they were technically equals among the Black but Jaelynn had been at it longer.  “In the meantime, we’ll continue with the Darkfriends and keep an eye on the Tower.  If another opportunity presents itself, I’d be happy to use it to our advantage.”  Rising from the table, she inclined her head, “Happy hunting.”
