Opening up a gateway to someplace in the world randomly he ended up in a forest somewhere but what shocked him was another opening in front of him, it was different that of the gateways he was used to using it felt off somehow. Curiosity took root and not wanting some peasant to wander through it and get into trouble Rand entered. 

When he emerged from the exit he found 3 men sitting around the table and they were all dressed strangely, he reached for the crystal sword on his belt and held on to Salidar in case any of these men tried anything. Sitting at the table with the others he turned his attention to the man who appeared to be their host and said nothing.
