A Return... (attn: Open)

Tamora walked through the Grey Ajah halls, her head held high. She knew her rooms would be ready for her, she had written ahead of time, and spoken to the Amyrlin Seat, and she had been accepted back into the Gre Tower. She knew most would never know why she had left or how, and that was fine by her. She was in a dark green dress, so dark it was almost black, with a fitted bodice, and divided skirts which she had taken to with her travels with Sarkaska. Her low cut neckline was compensated by black lace that climbed to her throat (as it stopped Sarkaska growling at any man who looked at her chest) and she had lace at her wrists too. Her silver and pearl dagger was at her waist, her long dark hair pulled up into a cascade of curls down her back with a silver diadem across her brow.
She was the very image of cool, calm Aes Sedai composure, though inside it was a different matter. But then who knew what someone felt on the inside.
She walked into her rooms, and smiled. She breathed in the scent of beeswax and parchment. The axes had been removed, as per her instructions, they had not been hers anyway, and the linens changed. There were flowers in the room; tulips, and roses which made her smile. There was no sign of Angeline, her personal maid, but that was fine. She knew the woman would be around somewhere. After she had left the Tower she had continued to pay the woman, so she would have money for her family. Tam had written to her, and the woman had accepted her job back eagerly it seemed. Which made Tam happy inside.
She closed the door, and leaned against it for a moment, breathing hard. Sarkaska was down in the Warder Yards, no doubt shouting at people and growling at whoever was in his way. That made her smile, as she knew he would be coming up her later. She moved to the freshly filled teapot to the side, and with a thread of Fire she warmed the water there, after putting in a couple of scoops of cloudberry tea in. She breathed to calm herself, wondering if she would have any visitors that day.
