The Grey Tower

The tall Gaidin didn't hesitate to wrap an arm, strengthened from many a year in the training yards, around his wife. Her feelings over the moment practically radiated from her, though he knew he was the only one who would be able to sense it. He was perfectly happy to have it that way, as well. So ...

Whither thou she went... He would have followed her regardless, but the idea of seeing dolphins off in the water was intriguing on its own and something he would have wanted to see if he was alone. Being with Liaran--his Aes Sedai, his wife--just made it all the better. He was just two steps behind ...

Her suggestion, he had to admit, caught him by surprise--not in a bad way, and perhaps it shouldn't have. It just was not anything he'd ever have considered doing himself. There weren't very many cliffs with water below them around the Grey Tower, after all. As he took in the idea, his eyes followed...

When she first began to respond, he easily imagined that she had spent as much time working when she was young as she did as an adult at the Grey Tower. He knew he'd been similar so it wasn't like he was judgmental over that. After his parents had died, he'd become a frightfully serious young man an...

For Haeden, there was no irony in it to say that it was just another training session. For this blademaster, son of a blademaster and infamous Reaper of the Yards as well as the Head of the Green Ajah--once dead and returned, once Amyrlin, he had attended many, many training sessions. He was a stude...

Haeden remained where he was as she moved point to point, but he shifted to watch her. He enjoyed the sense of...relaxation, perhaps, that he felt and saw from her. It was subtle, something others probably wouldn't even notice the way he did, but he appreciated it. For a moment, he looked beyond her...

The feeling beneath his feet was certainly a...new sensation, to say the least. It wasn't like he spent all his time with his own feet on the ground, but even when he was riding a horse, there was still a sense of the ground beneath you. This was entirely foreign to what that was like, what he was u...

He flashed another smile sidelong at her. "I'm sure you think I'm overthinking it," he said, since everyone in chat knows that the writers certainly believe he's overthinking it. "I just want to avoid looking foolish for some reason or another, and this is a pretty new situation for m...

Her sharp tone might have caught someone else off-guard, but with him, he smiled. As one whose entire existence was devoted to protecting others, it offered a moment of sweetness to him to have someone else be protective of him...at least, someone who wasn't his mother or sister. He was used to it f...

Haeden was very good at listening. As a child, he had been a rambunctious creature, but the trauma of his early adolescence leaning into the training he underwent to become a Gaidin had made him very skilled at being part of the background and simply observing. He had every intention to do as much o...
