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.

“The Federated Republic of Europe—the United States of Europe—that is what must be. National autonomy no longer suffices. Economic evolution demands the abolition of national frontiers. If Europe is to remain split into national groups, then Imperialism will recommence its work. Only a Federated Republic of Europe can give peace to the world.”
—Leon Trotsky (1879–1940)
“In marble halls as white as milk,
Lined with a skin as soft as silk,
Within a fountain crystal-clear,
A golden apple doth appear.
No doors there are to this stronghold,
Yet thieves break in and steal the gold.”
—Mother Goose (fl. 17th–18th century. In marble walls as white as milk (Riddle: An Egg)
“Culture is a sham if it is only a sort of Gothic front put on an iron building—like Tower Bridge—or a classical front put on a steel frame—like the Daily Telegraph building in Fleet Street. Culture, if it is to be a real thing and a holy thing, must be the product of what we actually do for a living—not something added, like sugar on a pill.”
—Eric Gill (1882–1940)
