Eldrenia narrates 'Meet me in the Solarium of the Yellow Ajah, Child.'
Tissaya narrates 'I will be right there!'
Entrance Hall
A pair of double doors containing small square glass panes keeps draft and
moisture ouf of this entrance hall. Two spiralling, cast iron staircases
with railings depicting a variety of leaves and fruits lead up to the upper
floor, where some Brown Sisters keep their quarters. Several large desks,
each with a gilded tablelamp and writing supplies stand in the hallway,
allowing the librarians to prevent visitors to the library from taking any
of the priceless tomes with them to the outside.

Chairs have been drawn up near the windows and vases containing bouquets of
of yellow flowers have been placed nearby. Several desks and clusters of
chairs have been distributed around the room, allowing for informal

Tissaya sit down on a stout oaken chair.
Tissaya says 'I actually had a question from our battle from Dougan...if thats
okay?'
Eldrenia says 'I wanted to commend you Child. That was some cool headed
work taking out Dougan.'
Eldrenia says 'Go ahead.'
Tissaya says 'I noticed he had a rod that he had been using. Is that something
only used by tainted source users?'
Eldrenia says 'It is not.'
Eldrenia says 'The Browns would be able to tell you more, but it is not an
angreal.'
Tissaya nods in agreement.
Eldrenia says 'Its an old quest item.'
Tissaya says 'Thank you! I had never seen it before.'
Eldrenia says 'Now, lets review.'
Tissaya thanks Eldrenia heartily.
Eldrenia says 'You were able to alert to the danger.'
Tissaya nods in agreement.
Eldrenia says 'You promptly followed my instructions and did not question
more than necessary.'
Tissaya nods in agreement.
Eldrenia says 'You asked a pertinent questions to ensure you were effective
in the battle'
Eldrenia says 'And you kept calm and controlled your weaves in the heat of
combat.'
Tissaya smiles happily.
Eldrenia says 'You might still need to work on your Ice Spikes a bit. They
were a bit blunt, but overall I'm very pleased with your actions today.'
Tissaya says 'thank you for the many compliments! I didn't really realize I did
that many things in the moment
'
Eldrenia says 'Natural aptitude then. Keep working hard Child, and you
might find a home with the Reds one day.'
Tissaya smiles happily.
Eldrenia says 'How are you progressing?'
Tissaya says 'I actually was wondering what I should do next to advance to the
next novice level?'
Tissaya is sitting.
Tissaya says 'I have earned 24 merits so far.'
Tissaya says 'the dishes are absent from the sink and the shelves are empty of
books to be sorted'
Eldrenia says 'Well, lets conduct an in-prompt to interview.'
Tissaya smiles happily.
Eldrenia says 'What have you learned while in the Tower?'
Tissaya says 'The first thing I've learned is the general layout of the tower.'
Eldrenia narrates 'Im taking care of Sedai duties for the moment, Im out of
the pk for a few.'
Tissaya says 'I know where to find the main trainers, where to rest my head,
to make meals, where to wash the dishes, how to restock the
pantries.'
Eldrenia says 'How would you get to the library from here?'
Tissaya says 'I would head northward, take the stairs down 2 floors'
Tissaya says 'then from the center intersection on the ground floor I would go
north'
Eldrenia says 'Who is the current Amyrlin Seat?'
Tissaya says 'to find the shelves I would go slightly west and then south'

Tissaya says 'Would that be Erulisse?'
Eldrenia frowns.
Tissaya says 'I see now'
Tissaya says 'It is Siuan Sanche'
Eldrenia says 'Child when speaking of an Aes Sedai, always give the
honorific title.'
Eldrenia says 'Siuan Sanche Sedai and Erulisse Sedai.'
Tissaya nods in agreement.
Tissaya says 'so Siuana Sanche Sedai is the Amyrlin seat.'
Eldrenia nods in agreement.
Tissaya says 'and Erulisse Sedai is the highest ranking member that I can see
next to her'
Eldrenia says 'What is the purpose of being a Novice?'
Eldrenia says 'Currently yes. There are a few other Arch Sisters but they
are inactive at the moment.'
Tissaya says 'There are many purposes to being a novice. I would think the
first is to be guided on how to not be dangerous with the source. Or at
least to be monitored closely while using it as to learn its proper use.'
Eldrenia says 'Why would one need that instruction?'
Eldrenia says 'Why is a channeler untrained dangerous?'
Tissaya says 'An untrained channeler can be a danger to themselves and others.
The male channelers are an example of this. If accessed through the
tainted aspects they can become mad'
Tissaya drinks the water.
Tissaya says 'One could kill people they love or cause harm to them unknowingly'
Tissaya says 'One could become overwhelmed from the source and also suffer self
harm.'
Eldrenia nods in agreement.
Eldrenia says 'Tell me what you have learned in your time in the Tower thus
far?'
Tissaya says 'I was taken on an outdoor tour where I learned how to time
hailstorm (and other short single target weaves) timing so that I could
strike my opponent and also cast before the next strike.'
Tissaya says 'I learned how the lumberjack can help me grow by providing me pine
trees to train against.'
Eldrenia says 'Have you explore the area under ground east of the city?'
Tissaya says 'I learned about the crabs that can be traded for gold so as to
provision myself.'
Tissaya says 'The only areas east of the city that I have seen are the forested
areas that I was told I was allowed to go into. I do not think I know of
the underground areas you speak of?'
Eldrenia nods in agreement.
Eldrenia says 'I think you have proven that you are acclimating nicely to
Tower life.'
Tissaya smiles happily.
Eldrenia says 'I would suggest you explore that area and see if you can
tease out its secrets.'
Tissaya says 'How do I start?'
Eldrenia says 'Have you completed your novice orientation?'
Tissaya says 'I was oriented but I do not know if I completed an underground
part so I must not have completed the orientation?'
Eldrenia says 'No no. This is something different.'
Tissaya says 'As far as I am aware I completed the orientation then.'
Eldrenia says 'Have you attended the class given by an Accepted.'
Eldrenia says 'She would have gone over the three oaths and some of the
rules of the Tower.'
Tissaya says 'Aleera Accepted has toured me more than once'
Eldrenia clambers to her feet.
Eldrenia beckons everyone to follow her.
Tissaya now follows Eldrenia.
Tissaya says 'Not only did she orient me but she also helped me in the forests
and with combat'

In the Classroom
A board of black slate hangs on the wall near the door, suggesting this
room is used as a classroom. The room is plain and windowless and has
enough place to seat thirty students. A dais with a desk sits at the front
of the room, where the Aes Sedai or Accepted teaching the class can sit.

Eldrenia says 'Did you come here for this class?'

An Accepted enters, carrying the White Tower Handbook.
An Accepted places the Handbook on the table.
An Accepted looks around the room and smiles.
Tissaya is now a member of Eldrenia's group.
An Accepted says 'I am Accepted Maighan.'
Accepted Maighan says 'If you are here to attend Novice Orientation, SAY
you will LISTEN to my CLASS.
Eldrenia says 'Let me know when you have completed this, Child.'
Tissaya says 'I will listen to your class'
Eldrenia opens the door.
Tissaya nods in agreement.
Accepted Maighan says 'Welcome to Novice Orientation, where some of the
rules of the White Tower will be explained.'
Tissaya sits down.
Accepted Maighan says 'This class does not attempt to cover everything
written in the Handbook.'
Accepted Maighan says 'This class seeks to clarify the gray areas.'
Eldrenia leaves west.
A young Tower Guard leaves west.
Accepted Maighan says 'You are responsible for reading and knowing the
rules listed in the Handbook.'
The door closes quietly.
Accepted Maighan says 'Be sure to read announcements regularly to make sure
you haven't missed an update.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Remember, there are no stupid questions.'
Accepted Maighan says 'If you do not know something, do not be ashamed. You
are here to learn.'
Accepted Maighan says 'If I'm not clear in my class, be sure to ask one of
the Wearied Novices, Accepted or Aes Sedai.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Very well, on to part two of this class: the Three
Oaths.'
Accepted Maighan points towards the blackboard and beckons you to READ the
BLACKBOARD.
Accepted Maighan says 'Please tell me what the First Oath is.'
Tissaya read the blackboard:
The First Oath:
To speak no word that is not true.
The Second Oath:
To make no weapon with which one man may kill another.
A tactician's clerk narrates 'Eldrenia has ended one of the Dark One's
generals!'
The Third Oath:
Not to use the One Power as a weapon except against Shadowspawn,
or in the last defense of my life, the life of my Warder,
or that of another Sister.
Tissaya says 'To speak no word that is not true.'
Accepted Maighan nods at Tissaya.
Accepted Maighan says 'To speak no word that is not true is the First
Oath.'
Accepted Maighan says 'This Oath means that anyone can ask an Aes Sedai to
speak plainly, and they will know she cannot lie.'
Accepted Maighan says 'This Oath, also forces us to hold ourselves to a
higher standard in stark contrast to the Father of Lies and his minions.'
Accepted Maighan says 'All of us, from the newest Novice to the most
experienced Aes Sedai has to live by the Oaths.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Aes Sedai swear them on the Oath Rod, making it
impossible for them to tell an outright lie.'
Accepted Maighan says 'However, Novices and Accepted will have to
thoroughly consider all their words and actions,'
Accepted Maighan says 'and judge whether they are in line with the Oaths.'
Accepted Maighan moves around the table.
Accepted Maighan says 'This Oath does leave some wiggle room, however.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Depending on the Aes Sedai, there is still room for
sarcasm, for example.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Also, when prompted to tell one's name, saying "You
may call me Alys" would not be a lie,'
Accepted Maighan says 'it would merely be an instruction on how someone may
call you.'
Accepted Maighan says 'However, saying "My name is Alys" would be a lie for
those of us who who were named differently.'
Accepted Maighan moves back to the blackboard.
Accepted Maighan says 'And what is the Second Oath?'
Tissaya says 'To make no weapon with which one man may kill another.'
Accepted Maighan smiles at Tissaya.
Accepted Maighan says 'This is the only Oath that was added later, after
the War of Power.'
Accepted Maighan says 'During this war many weapons were used or made with
the One Power.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Some of these caused massive destruction and an
unacceptable cost of lives.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Of course, if you win the fight against the Shadow
at the cost of too many human lives,'
Accepted Maighan says 'does that make us any better than the Shadow?'
Accepted Maighan looks at Tissaya.
Accepted Maighan says 'Before this Oath was added, Aes Sedai altered some
heron mark blades by the One Power, so they never go dull.'
Accepted Maighan says 'The White Tower isn't about conquering nations, but
instead about encouraging justice and peace.'
Accepted Maighan says 'We do not take sides in any conflict between
nations.'
Accepted Maighan says 'We are Aes Sedai, which means Servants of All in the
Old Tongue.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Onwards to the Third Oath. What is it?'
Tissaya says 'Not to use the One Power as a weapon except against Shadowspawn,
or in the last defense of my life the life of my Warder,or that of another
Sister.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Well done, Tissaya, that is correct.'
Accepted Maighan says 'This is possibly the most important of the Three
Oaths.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Once again, this is to instill trust.'
Accepted Maighan says 'With this Oath, the people can be sure that we will
not assault them with the One Power.'
Accepted Maighan says 'You can consider your life in danger should
Shadowspawn, Seanchan, a Tower Wanted,'
Accepted Maighan says 'a Male Channeler, or hidden person be in your room.'
Accepted Maighan says 'You do not need to wait for them to attack you first
before you can defend yourself.'
Accepted Maighan pins you down with a stern look.
Accepted Maighan says 'Now as a note, any weaves can be considered a weapon
to some people.'
Accepted Maighan says 'As such you need to ask before you heal someone
unless you have a working relationship with them'
Accepted Maighan says 'and know they accept you weaving Heal, refresh, etc.
on them.'
Accepted Maighan says 'You can imagine a Child of Light would consider you
even Healing them to be an attack.'
Accepted Maighan says 'We will continue with the RULES FOR NOVICES, if you
Tissaya says 'Rules for Novices'
Accepted Maighan says 'As a Novice, you may not leave the island of Tar
Valon.'
Accepted Maighan says 'However, you may hunt on the eastern edges of the
island, outside the eastern gates of the city.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Be careful though, you may not cross any of the
bridges.'
Accepted Maighan says 'You must rent in the White Tower.'
Accepted Maighan says 'When someone attacks you, you may defend yourself,
but you can only weave on them to beat them back.'
Accepted Maighan says 'You may not pursue your attacker, even if they are
near death, but you must instead stand your ground or move to a safer
place.'
Accepted Maighan says 'You must judge the situation to see what is safest.'
Accepted Maighan looks at the White Tower Handbook.
Accepted Maighan says 'During your time in the White Tower, until the
moment you shawl, you must always be cognito,'
Accepted Maighan says 'showing you are a member of a White Tower.'
Accepted Maighan says 'As a Novice, you must always wear your Novice
dress.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Sometimes Accepted Dian has a few spares, otherwise
you can issue one at Sheriam Sedai.'
Accepted Maighan says 'You may not wear any items of the Shadow.'
Accepted Maighan looks at Tissaya.
Accepted Maighan says 'You are not allowed to associate with known male
channelers or fraternize with criminals of Tar Valon.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Any romantic relationship with men is also strictly
forbidden. You are not here to find a husband.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Please note that some of these regulations also
apply to Accepted.'
Accepted Maighan says 'When you find an angreal, you must turn it in to an
Aes Sedai.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Do NOT channel into any objects, because that may
cause you to be Stilled,'
Accepted Maighan says 'unable to touch the One Power ever again.'
Accepted Maighan says 'The same goes for channeling at portal stones,
holding the Source for too long,'
Accepted Maighan says 'or overchanneling (the 'o' and 'ov' etc. command).'
Accepted Maighan says 'I also have some information on TASKS and
PUNISHMENT.'
A scout narrates 'Call the banners! Shadowspawn sighted at Tarwin's Gap!'
Tissaya says 'Tasks and punishment'
The door is opened from the other side.
Eldrenia has arrived from the west.
A young Tower Guard has arrived from the west.
Accepted Maighan nods at Tissaya.
Eldrenia closes the door.
Accepted Maighan says 'As a Novice, you can ask Sheriam Sedai for tasks for
Novices.'
Tissaya stands up.
Accepted Maighan says 'You may only complete a task once, unless specified
otherwise.'
Tissaya curtseys to her audience.
Tissaya sits down.
Accepted Maighan says 'Not following this rule may result in docking 3
times what you gained.'
Accepted Maighan takes on a grim look.
Accepted Maighan says 'Punishment can take the form of a docking of
merits,'
Accepted Maighan says 'a chore, a revocation of rights, or being put on the
Farm.'
Accepted Maighan says 'When you are put on the Farm, that is your last
chance.'
Accepted Maighan says 'You either shape up, or are put out of the Tower.'
Accepted Maighan says 'There are several ways one can be put out of the
Tower:'
Accepted Maighan says 'Failure to pass the Arches test, failure to pass the
shawling test, insubordination,'
Accepted Maighan says 'Committing a crime against Tower Law, consistent
breaking of Tower Rules.'
Accepted Maighan says 'And finally on personal request, although you will
then be considered a Runaway.'
Accepted Maighan gives you an attendance sheet.
Accepted Maighan says 'If you haven't attended this class yet, give this
sheet to Sheriam Sedai.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Remember, if you have any questions, the Accepted or
Aes Sedai will be glad to clarify.'
Accepted Maighan picks up her book.
Accepted Maighan nods at Tissaya.
Accepted Maighan says 'Welcome to the White Tower, Tissaya.'

This is a compact, dark-paneled room full of plain sturdy furnishings that

near the center of the room is plainly made and heavily worn through years
of use. A large mirror with flaking gilt hangs from one of the walls. Used
for switching disobedient initiates, as well as Aes Sedai who do penance, a
bench-like contraption that has a padded leather cushion to kneel on, as
well as a padded leather area to lean on. A selection of switches, ranging

floor has been delicately painted in the colors of all the Ajahs. A raised
platform, fronted by steps, runs around the outside of the room, containing
twenty-one chairs in clusters of three, each painted and cushioned to
declare
the Ajah of its inhabitant. A high-backed chair, the Amyrlin Seat, rests at
the far wall on a dais, ornately carved in vines and leaves and painted in
the colors of all the Ajahs. A large rose window opposite the entrance

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

Tissaya nods in agreement.
Eldrenia says 'You promptly followed my instructions and did not question
more than necessary.'
Tissaya nods in agreement.
Eldrenia says 'You asked a pertinent questions to ensure you were effective
in the battle'
Eldrenia says 'And you kept calm and controlled your weaves in the heat of
combat.'
Tissaya smiles happily.
Eldrenia says 'You might still need to work on your Ice Spikes a bit. They
were a bit blunt, but overall I'm very pleased with your actions today.'
Tissaya says 'thank you for the many compliments! I didn't really realize I did
that many things in the moment
'Eldrenia says 'Natural aptitude then. Keep working hard Child, and you
might find a home with the Reds one day.'
Tissaya smiles happily.
Eldrenia says 'How are you progressing?'
Tissaya says 'I actually was wondering what I should do next to advance to the
next novice level?'
Tissaya is sitting.
Tissaya says 'I have earned 24 merits so far.'
Tissaya says 'the dishes are absent from the sink and the shelves are empty of
books to be sorted'
Eldrenia says 'Well, lets conduct an in-prompt to interview.'
Tissaya smiles happily.
Eldrenia says 'What have you learned while in the Tower?'
Tissaya says 'The first thing I've learned is the general layout of the tower.'
Eldrenia narrates 'Im taking care of Sedai duties for the moment, Im out of
the pk for a few.'
Tissaya says 'I know where to find the main trainers, where to rest my head,
to make meals, where to wash the dishes, how to restock the
pantries.'
Eldrenia says 'How would you get to the library from here?'
Tissaya says 'I would head northward, take the stairs down 2 floors'
Tissaya says 'then from the center intersection on the ground floor I would go
north'
Eldrenia says 'Who is the current Amyrlin Seat?'
Tissaya says 'to find the shelves I would go slightly west and then south'

Tissaya says 'Would that be Erulisse?'
Eldrenia frowns.
Tissaya says 'I see now'
Tissaya says 'It is Siuan Sanche'
Eldrenia says 'Child when speaking of an Aes Sedai, always give the
honorific title.'
Eldrenia says 'Siuan Sanche Sedai and Erulisse Sedai.'
Tissaya nods in agreement.
Tissaya says 'so Siuana Sanche Sedai is the Amyrlin seat.'
Eldrenia nods in agreement.
Tissaya says 'and Erulisse Sedai is the highest ranking member that I can see
next to her'
Eldrenia says 'What is the purpose of being a Novice?'
Eldrenia says 'Currently yes. There are a few other Arch Sisters but they
are inactive at the moment.'
Tissaya says 'There are many purposes to being a novice. I would think the
first is to be guided on how to not be dangerous with the source. Or at
least to be monitored closely while using it as to learn its proper use.'
Eldrenia says 'Why would one need that instruction?'
Eldrenia says 'Why is a channeler untrained dangerous?'
Tissaya says 'An untrained channeler can be a danger to themselves and others.
The male channelers are an example of this. If accessed through the
tainted aspects they can become mad'
Tissaya drinks the water.
Tissaya says 'One could kill people they love or cause harm to them unknowingly'
Tissaya says 'One could become overwhelmed from the source and also suffer self
harm.'
Eldrenia nods in agreement.
Eldrenia says 'Tell me what you have learned in your time in the Tower thus
far?'
Tissaya says 'I was taken on an outdoor tour where I learned how to time
hailstorm (and other short single target weaves) timing so that I could
strike my opponent and also cast before the next strike.'
Tissaya says 'I learned how the lumberjack can help me grow by providing me pine
trees to train against.'
Eldrenia says 'Have you explore the area under ground east of the city?'
Tissaya says 'I learned about the crabs that can be traded for gold so as to
provision myself.'
Tissaya says 'The only areas east of the city that I have seen are the forested
areas that I was told I was allowed to go into. I do not think I know of
the underground areas you speak of?'
Eldrenia nods in agreement.
Eldrenia says 'I think you have proven that you are acclimating nicely to
Tower life.'
Tissaya smiles happily.
Eldrenia says 'I would suggest you explore that area and see if you can
tease out its secrets.'
Tissaya says 'How do I start?'
Eldrenia says 'Have you completed your novice orientation?'
Tissaya says 'I was oriented but I do not know if I completed an underground
part so I must not have completed the orientation?'
Eldrenia says 'No no. This is something different.'
Tissaya says 'As far as I am aware I completed the orientation then.'
Eldrenia says 'Have you attended the class given by an Accepted.'
Eldrenia says 'She would have gone over the three oaths and some of the
rules of the Tower.'
Tissaya says 'Aleera Accepted has toured me more than once'
Eldrenia clambers to her feet.
Eldrenia beckons everyone to follow her.
Tissaya now follows Eldrenia.

In the Classroom
A board of black slate hangs on the wall near the door, suggesting this
room is used as a classroom. The room is plain and windowless and has
enough place to seat thirty students. A dais with a desk sits at the front
of the room, where the Aes Sedai or Accepted teaching the class can sit.

Lady Eldrenia the Honored Sister is standing here.
A Brown Sister is here, frowning pensively.
A haughty young woman strides by practicing Aes Sedai serenity.
A young Tower Guard has arrived from the west.
Eldrenia closes the door.
Eldrenia says 'Did you come here for this class?'
Tissaya says 'I am here for Accepted Maighan'
An Accepted enters, carrying the White Tower Handbook.
An Accepted places the Handbook on the table.
An Accepted looks around the room and smiles.
Tissaya is now a member of Eldrenia's group.
An Accepted says 'I am Accepted Maighan.'
Accepted Maighan says 'If you are here to attend Novice Orientation, SAY
you will LISTEN to my CLASS.
Eldrenia says 'Let me know when you have completed this, Child.'
Tissaya says 'I will listen to your class'
Eldrenia opens the door.
Tissaya nods in agreement.
Accepted Maighan says 'Welcome to Novice Orientation, where some of the
rules of the White Tower will be explained.'
Tissaya sits down.
Accepted Maighan says 'This class does not attempt to cover everything
written in the Handbook.'
Accepted Maighan says 'This class seeks to clarify the gray areas.'
Eldrenia leaves west.
A young Tower Guard leaves west.
Accepted Maighan says 'You are responsible for reading and knowing the
rules listed in the Handbook.'
The door closes quietly.
Accepted Maighan says 'Be sure to read announcements regularly to make sure
you haven't missed an update.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Remember, there are no stupid questions.'
Accepted Maighan says 'If you do not know something, do not be ashamed. You
are here to learn.'
Accepted Maighan says 'If I'm not clear in my class, be sure to ask one of
the Wearied Novices, Accepted or Aes Sedai.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Very well, on to part two of this class: the Three
Oaths.'
Accepted Maighan points towards the blackboard and beckons you to READ the
BLACKBOARD.
Accepted Maighan says 'Please tell me what the First Oath is.'
Tissaya read the blackboard:
The First Oath:
To speak no word that is not true.
The Second Oath:
To make no weapon with which one man may kill another.
A tactician's clerk narrates 'Eldrenia has ended one of the Dark One's
generals!'
The Third Oath:
Not to use the One Power as a weapon except against Shadowspawn,
or in the last defense of my life, the life of my Warder,
or that of another Sister.
Tissaya says 'To speak no word that is not true.'
Accepted Maighan nods at Tissaya.
Accepted Maighan says 'To speak no word that is not true is the First
Oath.'
Accepted Maighan says 'This Oath means that anyone can ask an Aes Sedai to
speak plainly, and they will know she cannot lie.'
Accepted Maighan says 'This Oath, also forces us to hold ourselves to a
higher standard in stark contrast to the Father of Lies and his minions.'
Accepted Maighan says 'All of us, from the newest Novice to the most
experienced Aes Sedai has to live by the Oaths.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Aes Sedai swear them on the Oath Rod, making it
impossible for them to tell an outright lie.'
Accepted Maighan says 'However, Novices and Accepted will have to
thoroughly consider all their words and actions,'
Accepted Maighan says 'and judge whether they are in line with the Oaths.'
Accepted Maighan moves around the table.
Accepted Maighan says 'This Oath does leave some wiggle room, however.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Depending on the Aes Sedai, there is still room for
sarcasm, for example.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Also, when prompted to tell one's name, saying "You
may call me Alys" would not be a lie,'
Accepted Maighan says 'it would merely be an instruction on how someone may
call you.'
Accepted Maighan says 'However, saying "My name is Alys" would be a lie for
those of us who who were named differently.'
Accepted Maighan moves back to the blackboard.
Accepted Maighan says 'And what is the Second Oath?'
Tissaya says 'To make no weapon with which one man may kill another.'
Accepted Maighan smiles at Tissaya.
Accepted Maighan says 'This is the only Oath that was added later, after
the War of Power.'
Accepted Maighan says 'During this war many weapons were used or made with
the One Power.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Some of these caused massive destruction and an
unacceptable cost of lives.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Of course, if you win the fight against the Shadow
at the cost of too many human lives,'
Accepted Maighan says 'does that make us any better than the Shadow?'
Accepted Maighan looks at Tissaya.
Accepted Maighan says 'Before this Oath was added, Aes Sedai altered some
heron mark blades by the One Power, so they never go dull.'
Accepted Maighan says 'The White Tower isn't about conquering nations, but
instead about encouraging justice and peace.'
Accepted Maighan says 'We do not take sides in any conflict between
nations.'
Accepted Maighan says 'We are Aes Sedai, which means Servants of All in the
Old Tongue.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Onwards to the Third Oath. What is it?'
Tissaya says 'Not to use the One Power as a weapon except against Shadowspawn,
or in the last defense of my life the life of my Warder,or that of another
Sister.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Well done, Tissaya, that is correct.'
Accepted Maighan says 'This is possibly the most important of the Three
Oaths.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Once again, this is to instill trust.'
Accepted Maighan says 'With this Oath, the people can be sure that we will
not assault them with the One Power.'
Accepted Maighan says 'You can consider your life in danger should
Shadowspawn, Seanchan, a Tower Wanted,'
Accepted Maighan says 'a Male Channeler, or hidden person be in your room.'
Accepted Maighan says 'You do not need to wait for them to attack you first
before you can defend yourself.'
Accepted Maighan pins you down with a stern look.
Accepted Maighan says 'Now as a note, any weaves can be considered a weapon
to some people.'
Accepted Maighan says 'As such you need to ask before you heal someone
unless you have a working relationship with them'
Accepted Maighan says 'and know they accept you weaving Heal, refresh, etc.
on them.'
Accepted Maighan says 'You can imagine a Child of Light would consider you
even Healing them to be an attack.'
Accepted Maighan says 'We will continue with the RULES FOR NOVICES, if you
Tissaya says 'Rules for Novices'
Accepted Maighan says 'As a Novice, you may not leave the island of Tar
Valon.'
Accepted Maighan says 'However, you may hunt on the eastern edges of the
island, outside the eastern gates of the city.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Be careful though, you may not cross any of the
bridges.'
Accepted Maighan says 'You must rent in the White Tower.'
Accepted Maighan says 'When someone attacks you, you may defend yourself,
but you can only weave on them to beat them back.'
Accepted Maighan says 'You may not pursue your attacker, even if they are
near death, but you must instead stand your ground or move to a safer
place.'
Accepted Maighan says 'You must judge the situation to see what is safest.'
Accepted Maighan looks at the White Tower Handbook.
Accepted Maighan says 'During your time in the White Tower, until the
moment you shawl, you must always be cognito,'
Accepted Maighan says 'showing you are a member of a White Tower.'
Accepted Maighan says 'As a Novice, you must always wear your Novice
dress.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Sometimes Accepted Dian has a few spares, otherwise
you can issue one at Sheriam Sedai.'
Accepted Maighan says 'You may not wear any items of the Shadow.'
Accepted Maighan looks at Tissaya.
Accepted Maighan says 'You are not allowed to associate with known male
channelers or fraternize with criminals of Tar Valon.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Any romantic relationship with men is also strictly
forbidden. You are not here to find a husband.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Please note that some of these regulations also
apply to Accepted.'
Accepted Maighan says 'When you find an angreal, you must turn it in to an
Aes Sedai.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Do NOT channel into any objects, because that may
cause you to be Stilled,'
Accepted Maighan says 'unable to touch the One Power ever again.'
Accepted Maighan says 'The same goes for channeling at portal stones,
holding the Source for too long,'
Accepted Maighan says 'or overchanneling (the 'o' and 'ov' etc. command).'
Accepted Maighan says 'I also have some information on TASKS and
PUNISHMENT.'
A scout narrates 'Call the banners! Shadowspawn sighted at Tarwin's Gap!'
Tissaya says 'Tasks and punishment'
The door is opened from the other side.
Eldrenia has arrived from the west.
A young Tower Guard has arrived from the west.
Accepted Maighan nods at Tissaya.
Eldrenia closes the door.
Accepted Maighan says 'As a Novice, you can ask Sheriam Sedai for tasks for
Novices.'
Tissaya stands up.
Accepted Maighan says 'You may only complete a task once, unless specified
otherwise.'
Tissaya curtseys to her audience.
Tissaya sits down.
Accepted Maighan says 'Not following this rule may result in docking 3
times what you gained.'
Accepted Maighan takes on a grim look.
Accepted Maighan says 'Punishment can take the form of a docking of
merits,'
Accepted Maighan says 'a chore, a revocation of rights, or being put on the
Farm.'
Accepted Maighan says 'When you are put on the Farm, that is your last
chance.'
Accepted Maighan says 'You either shape up, or are put out of the Tower.'
Accepted Maighan says 'There are several ways one can be put out of the
Tower:'
Accepted Maighan says 'Failure to pass the Arches test, failure to pass the
shawling test, insubordination,'
Accepted Maighan says 'Committing a crime against Tower Law, consistent
breaking of Tower Rules.'
Accepted Maighan says 'And finally on personal request, although you will
then be considered a Runaway.'
Accepted Maighan gives you an attendance sheet.
Accepted Maighan says 'If you haven't attended this class yet, give this
sheet to Sheriam Sedai.'
Accepted Maighan says 'Remember, if you have any questions, the Accepted or
Aes Sedai will be glad to clarify.'
Accepted Maighan picks up her book.
Accepted Maighan nods at Tissaya.

The Mistress of Novices' Study
This is a compact, dark-paneled room full of plain sturdy furnishings that
have been used by generations of women who have held this office. The desk
near the center of the room is plainly made and heavily worn through years
of use. A large mirror with flaking gilt hangs from one of the walls. Used
for switching disobedient initiates, as well as Aes Sedai who do penance, a
bench-like contraption that has a padded leather cushion to kneel on, as
well as a padded leather area to lean on. A selection of switches, ranging
from a slender willow switch to a slipper lie on a table nearby.

floor has been delicately painted in the colors of all the Ajahs. A raised
platform, fronted by steps, runs around the outside of the room, containing
twenty-one chairs in clusters of three, each painted and cushioned to
declare
the Ajah of its inhabitant. A high-backed chair, the Amyrlin Seat, rests at
the far wall on a dais, ornately carved in vines and leaves and painted in
the colors of all the Ajahs. A large rose window opposite the entrance

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
