Despite going back on their end of the arrangement, the Whitecloaks tried to arrest Perrin regardless.
Unsurprisingly, they were turned away by the Two Rivers folk.
OnThe Wheel of Time’smap, Deven Ride is one of Two Rivers' neighboring villages.
In this case, the assistance of the Whitecloaks was indeed necessary.
Graendal was ordered by the reborn Ishamael to deal with Perrin.
Meanwhile, the Whitecloaks wanted Perrin to pay for what they perceived as crimes against their members.

Both Perrin stories hinge on one key event - the death of Geofram Bornhald.
The circumstances presented inThe Shadow Rising’sending certainly do allow for this.
Had the Whitecloaks captured him then, Perrin could have stood trial for the killing of Geofram much sooner.

What’s more, there isn’t a clear alternative for Perrin’s next adventure.
Perrin was notably absent inThe Shadow Rising’ssequel,The Fires of Heaven.
There’s also the matter of Galad Damodred, Morgase’s step-son and a high-ranking Whitecloak.
