When Rand removes his exile of Cadsuane, he tells her he has a task for her.  He says " I need to locate someone.  Someone who is missing, someone I now suspect may be in the hands of well-meaning allies.  You see, I've been informed that the White Tower is holding Mattin Stepanos." 
Cadsuane asks Rand if he wants her to fetch Mattin Stepanos. 

He says "Not at all.  I haven't decided what to do about him yet, so he can stay Egwene's problem.  The person I wants is probably somewhere in the Caralain Grass.  I'll explain more when we are not out in the open". 

 

Who did he want her to go find for him?  And why send her instead of an anonymous Ashaman or Aes Sedai? 

Rashamashalan, the Domani King. It's explained in the chapter where they return to Tear from Saldea.

 

Why Cads? An Aes Sedai and a pretty influential one is needed (AS holding him would be on Amyrlin's orders). Cads has some other worthwhile qualities that would help, but it doesn't strictly have to be her.

Yeah, it was the Domani King, however, one correction, the King is  Alsalam, Ramashalan (or whatever on earth his name is) is the guy on the Merchant's Council Rand used as a test subject with Graendal.

 And the password from God, amiright Eddings?

Was Ramash**** on the Council of Merchants? I thought the CoM was another WoT all-female club. 

I think he felt she would be best because it was likely the Aes Sedai holding the king would not respond to anyone else he might send, but she has a reputation that could be used.

Theodril: A good question, I had a quick look.

 

You are half right. There are male members of the Council, however, Ramshalan isn't one of them. He is just a lord.

 

So small correction of my correction.

wasn't he sucking up to rand in order to try and get placed on the council?

There are male members but it is predominantly female. Ramshalamadingdong was not a council member, however.

So many "all female" clubs in WoT that I lost track. It was probably Far Madding's ruling council that confused me. Thanks for the clarifications. 

it was the Domani King.
