  1. Hey all....

     

    I am going to be taking a break from the RP. I have not been that active given...but i thought i'd let you know. I'll finish up the couple of threads i'm in and then i'm outie. Not sure how long i'll be gone...but i will be a while.

     

    Aubrey...some one else can take my place in the RP i signed up for. Sorry for the inconvenience. *snugs*

     

    Have guys!!!  :)

  2. OOC: And girl. ;)

     

    IC: Veria listened to her teacher and When the time was right...she took her stance. She and the rest of the students fanned out and took places of advantage. Veria stepped lightly as Melenis moved around and struck out at different students and even Veria herself.

     

    After a few minutes Veria saw an opening and she took it. Melenis was distracted by an other student and Veria thrust with her lathe...but she found herself on her back with the air knocked out of her. Coughing she pushed herself up and then felt the bruise on her stomach coming in. Melenis had seen her and kicked her some how.

     

    Veria did her best not to let this keep her out of the spar for long. She jumped back in and began to work with the others.

  3. Veria heard a knock at her door so she put down her tea cup. She was relaxing after a hard day of training with Kopair in the warders training yards. He was an amazing athlete and very good with his sword. His hands where not that bad either. She blushed at that thought. What a time to be blushing!! She could not answer her door with her face red like that. With a rueful shake of her head she patted her cheeks and took a few breaths to calm herself.

     

    Standing up she walked to the door and opened it. Jade and the other two sitters where standing there. what could they...Oh Yes. This must be concerning the raising from last night 

     

    "There was a raising last night. As the newest raised you need to accompany us to the Oaths ceremony. You will be going with the group that lead the new sister to her oaths."

     

    Veria nodded "I'll just get my shawl."

     

    She walked quickly to gather her shawl and place on her shoulders. One look in the mirror and she was ready.

     

    A little while later Veria found herself following other sister into the accepteds gallery. She knew how it was that had been raised. I felt only like yesterday they where sharing a room as novices. Now after only a few months as a sister..Her novicehood friend was raised as well. Veria never doubted the woman would make it. She was smart and strong in spirit. That new sister was going places...Veria was sure the woman had no idea. Veria fought a grin and kept walking at a steady pace. She wanted to walk faster but that would not be dignified.

     

    They reached the right door and one of the other sister knocked three times. A few seconds later Gianna opened her door. Veria smiled when she saw her but said nothing. This was to be done in silence. Gianna closed the door behind her and Veria and the others formed a small circle around the woman and they started off. Other Accepted saw the procession and made their curtsies. Some look wide eyed and some with jealousy. It reminded Veria of her walk. Life changed dramatically for Veria as it would for Gianna. Veria has suspicions as to what ajah Gianna would choose...but she never spoke them out loud. Veria knew that Gianna would not pick Green...

     

    They made it to chamber where the Oaths where to be spoken and they all went through the customary words. Once they where spoken the sisters and Veria broke off into the ajahs. Rasheta was there as a sitter and handed Veria the shawl she held. As the newest Sister to the ajah she would be placing the shawl on the new sisters shoulder. But that would not be happening today.

     

    Veria watched as the flows of spirit where woven and the words where spoken. It was a wonderful thing to see a new sister born. Gianna stood and turned...

  4. Veria giggled in spite of herself. What a wonderful thing to have this freedom.  She spoke her understanding of the Mistress of Novices warning...but her excitement was palpable.

    She wanted to fly around this world and play with it in every way she could imagine. But she also knew that she had been there to long already and she needed “real”sleep as Corianin Nedeal called it in her notes. Veria imagined herself slipping in to her body and she was there dreaming with a smile. She did not wake until the sun shone in her eyes the next morning.

     

    OOC: Thank you sooooooooooo much Elgee!! This was great. *snugs*

  5. Veria's barely kept her mouth from working in irritation. Did the woman think her dim witted? Of course she was Aes Sedai...but as far as she understood it she was addressing a better and was due respect. She would keep all proprieties as she could. And the short and cold answer to her question...it was enough to make her huff...but she did not. This woman was going to try her patience in every way! Was she doing this on purpose or was it just her manner? Giving herself s mental shake Veria focused on what the other woman was saying and forgot about anger for the moment.

     

    Rasheta explained a battle shield and how it worked and was formed. It looked very useful as it covered a person in every direction. Rasheta demonstrated the effectiveness by letting Veria attack the shield and see how well it held by being  tied off or maintained manually. Veria threw fire balls at the woman and made them as hot and strong as she could letting her frustration feed them. She thought about lightening...but decided that would be to much. They then switched places and Veria took up the shield and defended herself. She first tied it off and saw how it could break if not maintained. She smiled as best she could at her teacher and did as instructed. She held the shield manually and could see how making small adjustments it could kept strong. She could feel the attacks Rasheta threw at her shield and flinched at few times at fireballs coming straight at her. It was a very useful weave and she could see how it would used in a battle when swords and arrows where flying all around. When Rasheta dismissed her she left the training field and went to her rooms. It took her a little while to stop muttering but when she did she was determined not to let the woman get under her skin again. She was glad that this week of training was over maybe she would go and visit kopair and try to relax.
