Beslan secured his position as King of Altara in TGS, after he quit his plans for a rebellion against the Seanchan and swore fealty to Tuon as his Empress, but still remaining an independent King.

One of my old theories was that Beslan is actually Berelain's man in white. I thought that Beslan might meet Berelain, when he is still wearing white to mourn his mother's death. Beslan doesn't have a Queen yet, and IMO Berelain would make sense for him, especially since she is a young, capable noble and linked to the Seanchan. Of course, after we don't see Beslan wearing any white in TGS, but glimpse Perrin's group finally meeting Galad in TGS, I admit it became even more likely that indeed Galad will be Berelain's man in white, as most readers took for granted (although Min curiously never states that Galad is Berelain's man in white). But we'll see..

So, do you think that this is the conclusion for Beslan, or will he yet play a certain role? Do you think he will find a Queen in the last two books, and do we already know this woman? Will Beslan's example of staying independent by bowing to Tuon be similar to how Rand has to act to win the Seanchan?
