Golden Swallow

A ter'angreal. Cadsuane wears it as a hair ornament. It was made during the Breaking specifically to detect a man channeling alone. It detects the direction of saidin or saidar, but does not distinguish between the two and does not tell the distance.

• Glimmers Q&A - The golden swallow was made during the Breaking to detect a man channeling alone. Since a man linked to a woman was, by definition, "safe," it does not detect saidin linked to saidar.
• WH,Ch35 - Cadsuane uses the golden swallow to track the Forsaken as they try to attack. It detects the direction of saidin or saidar, but does not distinguish between the two and does not tell the distance.
• KoD,Ch19 - Cadsuane knows when Rand is holding saidin and when he releases.
