Disclaimer: I do not own The Name of the Wind. This belongs to Patrick Rothfuss. I do, however, own the OC and the plot.

Plot: ElodinxOC. While Kvothe is continuing his tutelage under Master Elodin, he starts hearing rumours about how Elodin was married to one of the Edema Ruh before he cracked four years ago. Then, Elodin's wife comes to teach as a Guiller at the University. And as such, Elodin's life is slowly revealed…


Kvothe takes a seat in a classroom that is nearly empty, taking out quill and ink. The room slowly fills up with students, both E'lir and Re'lar mixed within the class. Almost as soon as everyone is seated, a woman walks into the classroom, the students growing extremely quiet. The woman is of normal height, and carries herself proudly. She is wearing a plain white linen shirt, and white linen pants. Her boots are even stained white, and they have a slight heel on them, which causes echoes through the classroom as she walks. Her chocolate coloured hair flows about her shoulders in soft waves, and she takes her place at the front of the class. She places her hands on the pedestal in front of her, her golden eyes flashing as she looks over the student body. Kvothe leans forwards, excited, as he recognizes her as one of the Edema Ruh. She is willowy, but not in any way breakable-appearing. After making a silent head-count of the students, she speaks in a resonating, deeper voice that glides along beautifully in the air, like a cello.

"Good day. My name is Aysel. I will be your teacher for this semester, for your teacher has fallen under a sudden illness." The whole student body murmurs a varied amount of responses. Someone sits beside Kvothe, patting him on the shoulder. When he looks over, he notices Sovoy sitting there, a faint smile on his face. Kvothe politely nods his head in Sovoy's direction, and Sovoy nods his head in the new teacher's direction.

"Hey, Kvothe. Do you even know who that is?" When Kvothe shakes his head, Sovoy laughs slightly. He sits properly, and picks up his quill and dips it into his ink pot. They are both silent, writing down Aysel's lesson. Things are quiet until halfway through the lesson, when the doors to the room open. Everyone looks to the door to be surprised when they see Master Elodin standing there, with the most amazed expression crossing his face. Sovoy hits Kvothe's arm, and points between the two, making a hand gesture that would make it seem that the two were in a relationship. Elodin walks slowly through the seminar-styled room towards Aysel, a curious little smile on his face. He walks right up to her, and they stare into each other's eyes for a good quarter of an hour, then he takes her hand and pulls her into a large embrace. There are muttered whispers throughout the student body, and Kvothe looks at Sovoy, completely confused. Sovoy grins.

"That's Elodin's wife, Kvothe. They separated when he…cracked." Kvothe nods his head, and looks back to the two. Elodin had let go of Aysel, and tucks her hair behind her ears. Then, he spins around and, Master's cloak billowing ridiculously, plods along barefoot, and out of the room. Aysel clears her throat, and the lesson commences. Sovoy hits Kvothe's arm, and Kvothe looks at him.

"Sad thing is, Aysel is still completely in love with him. He doesn't seem to completely comprehend al of it…" They both look back a the woman, just in time to see her eyes flash with tears.


Review, please! I really hope no one is too OOC…please tell me if you like it! Constructive criticism welcome!
