Allrianne stumbled into her room and began to clean her face. All the dust from the tapestries had mixed with her tears and her whole face had been covered in grim. Her muscles ached from swinging that bat over and over. Her throat burned from inhaling all that dust and then coughing it up. She was just generally exhausted.

She scrubbed the grim off of her face and neck, then brushed the dust from her hair and slipped a clean dress on. She slowly made her way to the dining hall and reluctantly joined her dusty comrades. She hadn't taken much to eat. She knew that she would just end up picking at a lot of it and it would be wasted. She had a half a potato, a small chunk of meat, then a regular helping of vegetables. As it was, she only ate half her meat and potato. Her vegetables she made herself finish since they were favorite part of the meal. The rest of the time, she just stared at her plate while the other girls wolfed down their food. Satin was going to give herself indigestion and Aeryn was going to bloat the way they were going.

Ikki watched with interest as Covai formed a hammer right before his eyes. He wasn't a sword, but a sledgehammer? It seemed...different from the normal, but Covai was the boss man. He went over and gripped the hammer with both hands. He grunted to even pick it up and it took all his might to swing it over his head. But the results were exactly as intended. The head had buried itself in the ground where it had struck. Ikki wiped the sweat off his brown and gave his teacher a weak grin, then tried again. He strained to swing the top heavy tool and nearly fell over on his third try.

"I thought this was saidin training?" Ikki muttered as he picked himself up, waiting for new instructions.

"That i do. Would you be interested in buying any?"

Jagaea struggled to figure out what she was saying. Does she have to have such a thick accent? She brushed aside a random strand of hair that had ventured onto her face and replied, "I might have some interest. You have jewels and silks, yes?"

Suddenly, she noticed something...odd about the captain. It was very familiar...the captain could channel! How unlikely was it that a channeling woman would just appear on her doorstep...figuratively. Then she remembered what nationality she was. Tairen. They were nearly as bad as Amadicians. If she told this woman she could channel, they'd likely both be dead from her panic frenzy. Maybe this one was best left dormant.

Haha! That's pretty awesome! I haven't had any WoT related dreams(Not that I'd remember them if I did. I sleep too deeply. :P), but I've had a couple odd ones about people I met on the forums. :D But we shant go into detail. :P

The ex-MoN with a pair of Talented young men. Oh, the possibilities! ^^

Thanks! ^^

Wasn't Jasmyne bonding Arath?

They are, but Shadowspawn can't go through them. She was just explaining a possible reason why. :D

To me, Spirit is the neutral, non-physical element. With many weaves, it stablizes(Like random weaves with traces of Spirit). With others, it delves into people and other ideas (Dream warding, healing, etc)

Just my take, might not make sense. :P

*roots for Jade to get her jack in soon-soon*  ;D

>.> *tries veeeery hard to contain laughter*

*snicker* :P

Jayde scares me. But not as much as Larindra. Though Honestly, I don't think even she will be able to stop me from totally killing Deanne, that little prancy piece of..... Oh cookies!

Oh, yes she will be able. She stopped Jasmyne's first attempt! ;D Of course, we shant mention the side effects of that occurrence. >.>

*coughblackajahcough*

Or maybe we don't want all our major holidays squished into a month's time! >.< :P

Sounds like you've got your house full! :D Take care! Enjoy your new internet jack! ;D

*huggles*

Thanksgiving was over a month ago! :P

*is almost glad the bond isn't officially in place yet...but still wants to share the feeling* ;D

The things that happen around here when you take a couple hours to watch Heroes. ;D

Allrianne pondered as Jerenia talked about these elements and weaving and all that. It almost bordered on interesting. She began to recall her times holding the Source. Her first had been an unusual event where that Blue had tricked her into it. But her other times...there may be a connection. Her second time had been in Larindhra's office and she had spilled scalding hot tea on herself. Then her third time, yesterday, had been caused when she landed on her back on the floor after spazzing out. Could it be that perhaps, she could hold the Source when she was in pain? She quickly tried to grab it consciously, just to see. She didn't want to, but she had to know. And thinking back on her dream, the Children were right. She was one of them now. She couldn't go back. Maybe she should just make the best of it.

Trying to grab the Source, she seemed unable to grab that little light. Unable to feel the warmth of the sun on her little white rose. She looked from side too side as Jerinia continued. No one was watching her, so she rolled up one sleeve and dug her fingernails into her forearm and clawed up towards the elbow. She winced in pain as some skin came off and a little blood was leaking. Mostly just red skin, but it might be enough. She tried to be a rose again. But rather than embracing the light, she embraced the pain, the wind that whipped at the rose. And there it was! She had it!

She stood up and approached the Accepted and stared in awe at the five threads laid across her hand. They were...pretty. She almost grinned at the surprise on the Accepted's face, both at Allri's quick volunteer to be first and the fact she was holding the Source. "Reaching" out to the threads, she pulled on the milky white one. "Umm, I think this is Spirit. Right?" Jerinia nodded and she kept going. "Hmm, they all seem to be even, I think. Like, none of them jump out at me like the first did, but they don't appear to be resisting my pull either." She decided on the blue one, almost reflective. It seemed...refreshing and pure. "I think this is Water. At least it seems that way." She pulled on the bronzish looking one and it felt firm and strong. "Earth?" The Accepted nodded.

Allri started to feel her grip on saidar loosen and the threads looked fuzzy. Checking her arm, it didn't hurt much anymore. She looked at Jerinia with a sad and apologetic look, then she dug her fingernails back into her forearm and gave them a good scratch. Her grip on the Source strengthened and she could see the flows clearly again. She grabbed ahold on the opaque flow. It felt very free. "I suppose this has to be Air." Looking at the last one, she took hold of the red flow and felt it's heat. "This has to be Fire." Her teacher nodded and Allri returned to her seat and let go of the Source. Maybe this isn't all bad... she thought. Maybe channeling wasn't evil, but she wasn't convinced Aes Sedai weren't.

She did it! Yay!!!
