Kia'Carni Duringal
Kia'Carni was born in Saldea. She was the
eldest daughter in Noble family,
and had one younger Sister called Emiline.
She lived a peaceful life, never having to
worry about the troubles of the
border as they were too far south. She spent
all her years playing with
dolls, going horse riding and being taught
all about herbs, and medicines by
her mother.
When Kia'Carni was 14 her family get into
some trouble with some of the
other local Houses. It looked as though the
family was about to be driven
out of their home, but an Aes Sedai arrived
and began negotiating between
the two feuding groups. Kia'Carni was amazaed
at how easily the problem was solved by the
Aes sedai.
When the Aes Sedai came to speak with her
father, the Aes Sedai took great
interest in Kia'Carni. She told Kia'Carni's
parents that she had the spark
in her and must come to the white Tower for
training.
Kia'Carni was deeply upset at having to leave
her home, she wanted to stay
with her sister and go horse riding everyday.
But she had no choice in the
matter and had to leave to go the Tower.
Kia'Carni never liked channeling. She always
associated it with home, and
the reason that she had to leave home. She
slowly began to hate channeling
and eventually a block was formed, stopping
her from channeling at all. The
Aes Sedai tried to brake it of course, trying
to make her think that the
tower was her home now, but nothing seemed
to work.
Then, one day whilst she was doing chores
in the kitchens, an Aes Sedai came
in and took her away from them. Kia'Carni
was very confused because she had only just
begun. She was taken out onto the grounds
and saw that there were
some people entering the tower.
One of those people happened to be her sister
Emiline! and an Aes Sedai was
with her.
Kia'Carni was overcome with joy and she rushed
over to greet her sister.
From then on, Kia'Carni took all her channeling
classes with her sister
only. It made her forget about being away
from home and only being with her
sister. Slowly, she began to be able to grasp
hold of Saidar again. Until
eventually, she could do it all the time,
with or without Emiline prsent,
simply knowing that she could go and see
Emiline straight afterwards was
good enough for her.
She got raised to Accepted at the age of
25 and Aspired to the Gray Ajah,
she wanted to bring peace to the nations
like that Aes Sedai had done for
her family all those years ago. She studied
and studied all day about the
nations and their laws and customs, finding
a lot of it quite enjoyable. It
took her 7 more years until she got Raised
to Aes Sedai of the Gray Ajah.
She stayed in the Tower for 3 more years,
waiting until her ISster ogt
Raised to the Green Ajah before they finally
left together to go and see
their parents.
When they arrived though, it turned out that
the local Noble Houses were
once again looking to throw their mother
and father out. Kia'Carni began
negotiations immediately, striving to find
ways to make the other nobles
happy. She ended up giving the Nobles a large
part of her fathers land which
he didn't really need any more. This seemed
to make them happy enough, as
all they were really after was his land anyway.
Kia'Carni and her sister then returned to
the Tower, a year later.
