Timeline
- Bennae is one of Egwene's teachers after she is captured. Bennae makes her perform an exhausting set of weaves and then discusses Shein Chunla's mistakes and several other subjects. Egwene tells her about the Thirteenth Depository and the six mutinies in the history of the White Tower (KoD, Ch. 24).
- Bennae indirectly tells Egwene that she got in trouble for asking about the Thirteenth Depository and asks her advice on how to deal with the situation. She appreciates Egwene's help (TGS, Ch. 12).
- Bennae all but recommends the Brown to Egwene (TGS, Ch. 16).
