<div class="floatright">(https://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/f/fa/Trainee.jpg)</div><strong>Character name:</strong>Yfan Bravni (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=234819.msg11554896#msg11554896)<br/><strong>Position:</strong>Trainee<br/><strong>Tag:</strong>Kalain Baneron, Theraeve Valaim<br/><strong>Time:</strong>Early Afternoon, Saven 6th, 990NE<br/><strong>Place:</strong>Training grounds<br/><strong>Warning:</strong><br/><hr/><br/>Yfan emerged onto the training grounds from laundry detail wearing grey woolen training clothes. The entirety of the morning and even some of the afternoon was taken up with the task of cleaning the sweat-soaked clothing that he and his fellow trainees wore, as well as any garments that the higher ranked men chose to submit to them. Sometimes this was intensely cruel: Yfan had been tasked with trying to get blood of some Valdar's white silken shirt. It was a labour intensive task that Yfan had nevertheless succeeded at.<br/><br/>But it had taken extra time and one of the training instructors took - rightly - umbrage with Yfan's tardiness and set him to running laps. But not simply running. Yfan was set with a wooden device that somewhat resembled a yoke used to harness beasts to a wagon. The loops that would typically go about an animal's neck was instead used to affix a rope which was affixed to a bucket. Each hoop had a bucket, and each bucket was filled in part with lead casting weights and in part with water. Yfan had to run and not spill any of the water, or else there would be further penalty. He was set to twenty laps.<br/><br/>These he ran, and as such was occupied when Theraeve Sedai was in search of sparring partners.<br/><br/>But he did finish his laps in time to see Master Kalain confront the Aes Sedai. Lacking any specific task at that time, and needing to speak to Master Kalain, Yfan approached to watch the bout that was forming. He still had the wooden contraption around his shoulders as he approached the sands, arriving just in time for the first kick from Theraeve Sedai to fly Master Kalain's way. Yfan knew them both to be very skilled combatants even without arms, and it would at the least be instructive to watch two individuals of such skill square off.
