After The Split in The White Tower
The deposition and stilling of Siuan Sanche for her support of the Dragon Reborn led to the formation of two rival groups of Aes Sedai, each of which has its own Hall of the Tower. Elaida's faction, in control of Tar Valon, has no members of the Blue Ajah, which is therefore unrepresented in that Hall. Conversely, the Salidar group contains no members of the Red Ajah, so the Salidar Hall has no Red sitters.

Famous quotes containing the words split, white and/or tower:
“An actor must communicate his author’s given message—comedy, tragedy, serio- comedy; then comes his unique moment, as he is confronted by the looked-for, yet at times unexpected, reaction of the audience. This split second is his; he is in command of his medium; the effect vanishes into thin air; but that moment has a power all its own and, like power in any form, is stimulating and alluring.”
—Eleanor Robson Belmont (1878–1979)
“One revelation has been made to the Indian, another to the white man.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“With the noise of the mourning of the Swattish nation!
Fallen is at length
Its tower of strength;
Its sun is dimmed ere it had nooned;
Dead lies the great Ahkoond,
The great Ahkoond of Swat
Is not!”
—George Thomas Lanigan (1845–1886)
