I see what you are getting at ... And I see how Zaida used it to her advantage darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 11/11/2012 07:45:19 AM
I simply don't agree that either Harine's or Zaida negotiated for the land with Traveling in mind. It seems to be a part of the larger SF agenda put in motion by Nesta when she sent ambassadors to Rand. Zaida made do with what she could and came up with a great Bargain.

How Zaida used her Bargain is a different thing than why she secured the land. The land can and will be used for many things, gaining Traveling wasnt even Zaida's doing, Nesta set that in motion with her BotW Bargain. Zaida just managed to use it.
