I found a discussion of the Oath Rod and fertility on Dragonmount, but I'm unconvinced that it's a contraceptive. Few Aes Sedai have children (quoted from CoT 10, but I don't know who's speaking or what the context is). I would buy the argument that the blackberry bush is the Two Rivers. I just...

Chapter 13 Rand is feeling Alanna's outrage and shock. :lol Dashiva/Osan'gar -- is he actually crazy, or just pretending? D/O'g speaks and reads the Old Tongue like a scholar -- of course, since it's close to what he'd used before sealed away -- but his cover story is that he's a farmer...
