<div class="floatright">(https://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/5/50/BlueAjah.jpg)</div><strong>Character name:</strong>Imoko Kiraga   (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=234819.msg11594853#msg11594853)<br/><strong>Position:</strong>Aes Sedai of the Blue Ajah<br/><strong>Bondmate:</strong>n/a<br/><strong>Tag:</strong>Aleana<br/><strong>Time:</strong>Morning, Saven 5, 990NE<br/><strong>Place:</strong>Crafter's area<br/><strong>Warning:</strong>n/a<br/><hr/><br/>Just the fact that Aleana seemed interested in the shop that she'd chosen to visit first had Imoko feeling all warm and giddy inside. As they browsed together, she paid close attention to whichever items the Keeper selected or took interest in, trying to get a better sense of the woman's taste, and of course learn from it as well. Aleana was was not only bold, but always appeared perfectly put together, elegant and sophisticated. Some may have dismissed it as vanity, but Imoko understood that demeanor and appearance were both quite important, especially for someone holding such an elevated and prestigious title. There was so much that she could learn from Aleana in addition to the secrets of their Ajah and its information network that it could get a bit dizzying.<br/><br/>"We shall see!" she chirped happily, snatching up the spool of fabric which had been pointed out to her and adding it to the small pile that she'd started building on the edge of the table. "And this one for you!" Imoko added, holding up a sky blue fabric imprinted with golden silhouettes of flying cranes. As soon as the Keeper asked her opinion about gift ideas, though, she quickly placed the fabric back down and took a step back from the table, lightly pressing an index finger over her lips as she considered the options.<br/><br/>"Aah! I may know something!" Imoko's wooden sandals tapped against the floor as she excitedly shuffled over to a shelf attached to the wall which held several ornate looking boxes. She quickly returned with one of them, holding it up in her palms for Aleana to get a closer look. It was about ten inches long, eight inches wide and six inches tall, assembled out of dozens of interwoven rectangular panels. Each panel was painted with earthy tones of green, red, brown and yellow so as to form an intricate and symmetrical pattern. Although beautiful, this box was relatively plain, with some of the other ones being covered with magnificent portraits or landscapes done in traditional Shienar style.<br/><br/>"The trick is figuring out how to open them..." Imoko explained, sliding a few of the panels with her dainty fingers, biting the left side of her lower lip slightly as she searched for the right combination. When she found it, it only moved the lid of the box a little bit. "This one only requires around 80 moves or so, others can require hundreds, even thousands. Each one is different, mastering them can be quite fulfilling." Smiling, she held the puzzle box out towards Aleana in case she wanted to try it or inspect it further. Imoko imagined that a Sister of the Grey Ajah would appreciate the patience and determination required to solve such a puzzle, though of course Aleana would have a better idea of what Merean Sedai might appreciate.
