Lower Corridor
This plain corridor lies on the ground floor of the Tower, near the
Kitchens. Although there is another kitchen and accompanying dining halls
on the second floor, they have not been in use in centuries. This kitchen is
conveniently placed on the ground floor, so supplies to feed the many
mouths in the Tower can easily be brought in.

The Warders' Practice Yard
A large expanse of bare ground at least fifty paces across and nearly twice
as long stretches forth, its earth beaten hard. At intervals around it
under the trees stand wooden stands holding quarterstaffs and practice
swords made of strips of wood bound loosely together, and a few real swords
and axes and spears. A large gray stone building lies to the east, home to
the warder students and those warders who are not sharing quarters with
their Aes Sedai in the main Tower structure itself.
A sign hangs on the wall.

A gray haired weaponsmaster stands nearby.
Elmitsu has arrived from the west.
Elmitsu offers a modest and modestly improved curtsey upon her arrival to the yard.
Elmitsu sheathes an ivory and gold-hilted longsword into a jewel-encrusted scabbard.
Penzei subdues a giggle before saying," So! Where were we when we were so rudely interrupted last
time ? "
Elmitsu considers this carefully 'We were talking about Healing weaves, but we didnt get very far.'
Penzei produces a leather binder from seemingly nowhere in her dress with a quill, then starts
thumbing through some pages.
The White Tower's spire gleams softly in the first light of a new day. Starting tic timer.
Elmitsu tries to peek at the notes in Penzei's binder by craning on her tiptoes.
Penzei claps the pages together with a loud SNAP.
Penzei says 'Ah I was informed that you had shown some aptitude for the healing arts!'
Penzei says 'Tell me what do you know about such things ?'
Elmitsu smiles ruefully 'Not much, Accepted.'
Elmitsu continues 'I know that Healing weaves are primarly made with flows of spirit and water.'
Penzei says 'Enough to heal a man fresh from battle ?'
Elmitsu nods after a long moment 'But probably not so well as you.'
Penzei says 'This isn't a contest dear, I'm trying to see how well you understand it'
Elmitsu smiles slyly 'I like contests.'
Elmitsu says 'But I understand what you mean.'
Penzei feels the flows of saidar coursing through her body.
The snow is coming down more heavily now.
Penzei begins a simple weave of earth, light brown dust swirling in front of her out stretched hand.
Penzei says 'Don't forget the Earth, we are all bound together by dust'
Elmitsu observes Penzei's display with measured interest, creeping a step closer 'You use flows of
Earth when Healing?'
Penzei waves her hand, the dust blowing gently into the wind.
Penzei says 'While a person's being is made mostly of water, water itself will run away, it needs a
vessel to contain it.'
Elmitsu extends her hand to catch some of the dust.
Penzei says 'That is where the Earth comes in, it binds the water and spirit together, creating the
basic building blocks of life'
Elmitsu says 'Do you use any other elements?'
Penzei shakes her head gently before saying," Mostly not, however, for curing ones blindness,
alittle bit of fire comes handy "
Elmitsu nods slowly, her mouth slightly agape.
Penzei says 'Something about cleansing the eyes, requires the spirit to be infused with fire'
The snow lightens up a bit.
Elmitsu traces a hand in the falling snow.
Elmitsu says 'That sounds painful, Accepted.'
Penzei smiles faintly.
Penzei says 'Sometimes alittle pain in necessary in healing'
Elmitsu says 'Too much of life is like that, I think.'
Penzei says 'Fair point, but such is the way of things'
Elmitsu looks wistfully around the yard, though her eyes do not settle upon any of the practicing
students.
Elmitsu says 'Why does Healing make people hungry?'
Penzei subdues a giggle before turning towards the warder students practicing.
Penzei says 'When I was a novice, I often stuck around the practice yards, healing the warder students
during their trials.'
Elmitsu nods, though her cheeks flush a little 'I am trying avoid Rolfe.'
Elmitsu clears her throat 'To avoid.'
Elmitsu looks longingly toward something in the distance.
Penzei says 'Oh, dear, remember you are the jewel here not Rolfe, he should be avoiding you.'
Penzei grins slightly at the mention.
Elmitsu juts her chin out defiantly 'I am the jewel.'
Penzei says 'Anyway, what I found was, the art of combat takes alot out of a person. '
Penzei says 'For obvious reasons'
Elmitsu nods as she continues to absorb the lesson, her eyes drifting from the Accepted only very
occasionally.
Penzei says 'And in trying to force the body to recuperate it requires replacement of nutrients.'
The night has begun.
Penzei says 'Therefore when you heal someone, they get very hungry very quickly.'
Penzei says 'The more you heal them the hungrier they get'
Elmitsu tilts her head to the side as she considers this.
Elmitsu says 'That makes sense.'
Zygoat leaves south. vv
Penzei says 'The real warders however, tend to have a resistance to such things, most likely due to
their bonds with Aes Sedai.'
The snow lightens up a bit.
Penzei brushes her hand through her copper hair, removing some of the snow that is building up.
Hypatia has arrived from the south.
Hypatia leaves north. ^^
Elmitsu whispers conspiratorially 'She is new.'
Penzei says 'There are many new novices in the tower this year!'
Penzei smiles faintly.
Elmitsu says 'I heard Kiruna Sedai say it was a sign that the Last Battle is coming.'
Penzei grins slightly at the mention.
Hypatia has arrived from the west.
Hypatia leaves south. vv
Penzei says 'Who can be certain of such things, we only know that there is something going on out of the
oridinary'
Penzei says 'And we had best be prepared'
Elmitsu nods, though she's lost some of her color.
Penzei says 'When you healed those men at the gates a few days ago, did you enjoy it ? Did you get a
sense of purpose from it ?'
Elmitsu says 'I liked being useful, but I was a little scared.'
Penzei says 'Fair assessment, as with anything new and challenging'
Elmitsu says 'Have you been to the Blight?'
Elmitsu inches a little closer to the Accepted.
Penzei flicks her copper hair behind her back before saying," Often our composure during such times
is the different between winning such battles and losing"
Penzei says 'I have been in the Blight many times'
Penzei says 'I have even been inside Thakandar'
Elmitsu's eyes are nearly so wide as serving platters.
Penzei looks off into the distance, her gaze becoming hard as stone.
The officedoor is opened from the other side.
Penzei says 'It is not a place for the faint of heart that is for sure'
Draz has arrived from the east.
A Tower guard has arrived from the east.
The officedoor closes quietly.
Draz bows deeply.
Elmitsu looks at Draz.
Penzei says 'Lord Gaidin Draz, How are you this day ?'
Draz says 'tired'
Elmitsu sighs dreamily, but her attention returns to Penzei.
Penzei smiles faintly.
Draz says 'just played a game of strategy with a friend'
Draz says 'he forfeited..'
Penzei grins slightly at the mention.
Draz tastes a little bit of a package of dried rations.
Penzei says 'I was just telling Elmitsu about one of our adventures into Thakandar'
Elmitsu whispers to you, 'He is awfully handsome though.'
The White Tower's spire gleams softly in the first light of a new day.
Tic length updated to: 61.103 seconds.
Penzei rolls her eyes slightly at the mention before turning back to the warder.
Draz smiles happily.
Draz says 'a dangerous place'
Draz says 'i wish we could just strike once, hard and true.'
Elmitsu repeats 'hard and true' under her breath. Her cheeks are spotted with color.
Draz gets a dusty brown map of Shara from a backpack.

Draz says 'where is verin'
Elmitsu watches in awe as Penzei's hand begins to bleed, if slowly.
Penzei says 'Oh no, Novice Elmitsu, what ever shall I do ?'
Elmitsu says 'Verin Sedai is above the library, DRaz Gaidin.'
Penzei holds up her bleeding hand.
Draz bows deeply.
Draz leaves south. vv
A Tower guard leaves south. vv
Elmitsu grabs Penzei's hand as she scrunches her eyes shut. She is surrounded by the glow of Saidar
for those who can detect it.
Elmitsu weaves flows of spirit, water, and earth into the wound. The edges begin to knit themselves
together.
Penzei smiles faintly as the healing begins to take effect and bind her wound together.
Elmitsu gasps a little as the Healing is completed. Penzei's hand is as unmarred as the collecting
snow.
Penzei inspects her hand momentarily before saying," Well done! "
Penzei says 'You do seem to have a penchant for healing, Dear'
Elmitsu says 'It helped that you were bleeding.'
Elmitsu smiles slyly.
Penzei says 'Should you ever want to expand that knowledge, please reach out to the Yellow Ajah, there
are many who can teach you'
Penzei says 'Now, I could use some food if you don't mind'
Penzei smiles faintly.

The Kitchens
The smells of food fills this large, high ceilinged room, the scent of
meats mingling with those of fruits and vegetables. A long stone fireplace
with spits lies in the center of the eastern wall, the roasting spits being
turned by spit dogs running in their wicker baskets. Iron stoves and ovens
have been placed along other walls. Three large pairs of doors flank the
kitchen and a glimpse reveals they are large dining halls. Gray tiles cover
the floor and a large sink occupies a corner of the room.

The Pantry
The room has somehow been made to be as cool as a springhouse in order to
keep the food fresh. Sacks of different varieties of flour and seasonings
are stacked against one of the walls. A shelf placed against a second wall
holds jars of preserved fruits and cartons of eggs, and barrels of wines
from different countries fill the rest of the room. A thick wooden door
with a small barred window lies on the east wall, overlooking a graveled
stretch of the garden, allowing supplies to be brought in with ease.

The Kitchens
The smells of food fills this large, high ceilinged room, the scent of
meats mingling with those of fruits and vegetables. A long stone fireplace
with spits lies in the center of the eastern wall, the roasting spits being
turned by spit dogs running in their wicker baskets. Iron stoves and ovens
have been placed along other walls. Three large pairs of doors flank the
kitchen and a glimpse reveals they are large dining halls. Gray tiles cover
the floor and a large sink occupies a corner of the room.

The Pantry
The room has somehow been made to be as cool as a springhouse in order to
keep the food fresh. Sacks of different varieties of flour and seasonings
are stacked against one of the walls. A shelf placed against a second wall
holds jars of preserved fruits and cartons of eggs, and barrels of wines
from different countries fill the rest of the room. A thick wooden door
with a small barred window lies on the east wall, overlooking a graveled
stretch of the garden, allowing supplies to be brought in with ease.
A sign hangs next to the oven.
