Episode 7, titled Daes Dae'mar, opens with a poignant flashback, taking us twenty years back when Moiraine and Siuan engaged in a heartfelt conversation about their future. It serves as a bitter reminder of the deep bond they once shared and how distant they have become.
The perspective of the Blue Sitter regarding Rand's birth sets the stage for the subsequent concealment that forever alters their lives.

The two, when they meet, share heartfelt moments where Siuan confronts Moiraine for not revealing her about getting stilled by Ishamael at the Eye of the World.
Siuan further demands to meet the Rand'alThor, aka the Dragon Reborn, to gauge his strength in channeling the One Power.
In their eventual encounter, Siuan startles Rand by employing her powers to shield and capture him. It raises an ethical dilemma regarding the Aes Sedai's authority to manipulate the Dragon Reborn and utilize him as a weapon during the last battle against the dark force. Meanwhile, Mat is attacked and rendered unconscious, only to awaken in Falme.
Then, he comes face-to-face with Lanfear and Ishamael, who grant him glimpses of his past lives through a rejuvenating cup of reishi tea. This revelation prompts Mat to question his own morality and ponder the cyclical nature of the Wheel of Time. Nyaneve and her trainer, Renna, are seen getting trained, where every Sul'dam has to learn to control her Damane to bring out the raw power.
The episode showcased that every Damane has to create a gust of wind by channeling the One Power, where Egwene showcases her immense powers, leaving her awestruck. Nyaneve and Elayne, on the other hand, plan to rescue Egwene after the Yellow Ajah saves them from Seanchan's army.
They meet Loial, who equips them with the whereabouts of Ewgene, who is held captive in the old tower called the Kennels by the army, and decide to rescue Ewgene.
Liandrin reached out to Moiraine's nephew, Barthane, ordering him to kill Moiraine as per Dark One's order. Hearing the conversation, Barthanes's mother informs the queen and gets his son arrested. Meanwhile, Rand manages to heal Moraine's powers by cutting the weaves formed inside her.
The episode culminates as the bond of trust and love breaks between Siuan and Moiraine as the latter decides to walk across the Foregate with Rand and the Lanfear.
