The Grey Tower

Kaira

Kaira wasn't sure if Murdock's words stung like a bee sting, or scalded like boiling water. Either way, the pity party was scoured away by his derision. She found herself straightening up and squaring her shoulders. Not, it had to be noted, because she'd been scolded. It was the ...

Ravak smiled broadly. There was something innately joyous about hearing his youngest falling into the martial spirit. That was undoubtedly Shienaran pride, and Rav was happy to let the pride get the better of him. "If our boy does manage to put out a Drin, I feel like both Iain and the Drin will ...

Elia

"Any advice for how to proceed?" Elia's left hand twitched as her mind envisioned smacking this child on the back of the head for insolence. The fool thinks this is the first time I've taught a lesson . She took a steadying breath, focusing on keeping her outward composure. The faint ...

Your wayward child . There were many things Ravak could do to pick apart those three words, bit by bit, if given half a chance. He would be able to spit out quite a decent diatribe, if he knew what a diatribe was. But he also knew getting angry and outraged at his wayward child was not how he ...

Kaira

"What should the Mistress of Novices do for me?" That was the question Kaira thought Murdock asked. She wasn't about to ask him to clarify even if she was wrong.

"I mean, I've no idea," she replied without thinking. "I have a block. I'm not sure if I am channeller material. I'm certain ...

Elia

The Shieneran frowned, though the dark lines across her brow were masked by her low fringe. Her relationship to dangerous ter'angreal was a unique one, and no-one could possibly understand the specifics of that. She resisted any pull to go down that emotional rabbit hole, instead formulated ...

Elia

The mask wearing the smile didn't slip, but Elia's mood did sour a touch. It was not that this Dedicated came back to say that he did not know where he was drawn - she'd literally just said that was an option. No, it was this unguided interest in 'puzzles'.

Oh fie! As if I hadn't also ...

Kaira

Kaira found herself unnaturally becalmed by the Keeper's words. She couldn't recall if she'd ever heard her mum's name come from another person's mouth without a barb attached to it. "Mirin Sedai would be thrilled to have you here now." She didn't think her father had expressed such ...

Name: Elia Darrow
Rank: Aes Sedai of the Indigo Ajah
I'll tell you what I want, what I really, really want: Elia's been a wallflower for a few years off-camera. It's time to give her something to do that forces her out of her shell.

N.B.: If Miahala's involved, scratch off Elia and add Ravak ...

Miahala's mood was infectious. He had to hold a mental image of the white hairs that were growing in his beard to keep himself from reverting to the wild-eyed Drin he'd been countless seasons ago. That child wouldn't have found the courage to look at an Aes Sedai, let alone hold one in his arms ...
