Changes in Time
Don't own RJ's work---so whatever I have in here, I don't own and I said this so you cant sue me!...I hope ::gulps::
A/N: THANK YOU SO MUCH TO NEELA! I'd like to say to her this: It is really cool that you reviewed. I was inspired by your work to write my own so :-p thanks a lot for reviewing my stuff! And thanks for the constructive criticism...I'll go back and try some of those things. Um about the ward...no freaking clue...I just thought that would be cool...and the Last Battle...no matter what time it is, wouldn't Lan STILL want to stay with his wife and children? And psst....I'm only on book 5...I suspect Moiraine died, that was a bit obvious earlier...so I don't want to put how she survived if I don't know how she died! K? Sorry bout that....Anyway...now here's a BIG part I would like to point out to everyone!
In New Spring the Novel...the book written after Crossroads of Twilight (book 10) set BEFORE the Eye of the World (Book 1) Moiraine was the one as an Accepted....and she tested for Aes Sedai. So, a lot of the things, like the ceremony, I took right out of the book, almost word for word. Therefore, I have a MAJOR disclaimer. Anyway, they spend a day in prayer and well...you'll see but they will take the oaths TRUST ME! Its just this whole follow what RJ's doin think k?
NOW!
Chapter 6: Testing-Test 2-Part 1
Nynaeve was now following the Mistress of Novices calmly down a narrow staircase that spiraled deep into the bedrock beneath the tower. She kept silent. She had to. That was part of the ritual.
She was lead to the lowest level and watched as Mayana channeled flows of air to swing open the doors that they had stopped at.
Once inside, she stared at a great oval ring, narrow at top and bottom, the rounded rim thicker than her arm, centered beneath the dome. It was over a span high and maybe a pace across at the widest and it glittered silver, gold, green, blue or swirls of all of them. It was a ter'angreal. The one which she would be tested in.
"Attend," Mayana said formally to the other Aes Sedai in the chamber, one for each Ajah, with their shawls over their shoulders.
"For what reason have you been soummoned here?" Mayana asked.
"To be tried." Nynaeve said, her voice totally calm. At least Elayne was there, I wonder how Egwene did.
"For what reason should you be tried?"
"So that I may learn whether I am worthy."
"For what would you be fournd worthy?"
"To wear the shawl." And with that, she began to undress again so that she could test clad in the Light.
"Therefore I will instruct you," Mayana went on. "You will see this sign upon the ground." She channeled and drew a six pointed star in the air, two overlapping triangles written for an instant in fire.
One of the sisters behind her, Nayta, a yellow, touched her back of her head with a weave. "Remember what must be remembered."
"When you see that sign, you will go to it immediately at a steady pace, neither hurrying no hanging back, d only then may you embrace the Power. The weaving required must begin immediately, and you may not leave that sign until it is completed.
"Remember what must be remembered."
"When the weave is complete, you will see that sign again, marking the way you must go, again at a steady apace, without hesitation."
"Remember what must be remembered."
"One hundred times you will weave, in the order you have been given, and in perfect composure."
"Remember what must be remembered."
All of the sisters moved away, save Mayana, and formed a circle around the ter'angreal. They knelt on the stone floor and the channeled, the speed of the ter'angreal increasing, and channeled each of the five powers, concentrating on their task.
Nynaeve walked forward to the circle at a normal pace- she had been the Wisdom once, she should know how to walk properly- But, she stepped through the ring anyways hoping she could come out to see Lan see his babes and his wife, who would be capable of bonding him.
