<div class="floatright">(https://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/5/50/BlueAjah.jpg)</div><strong>Character name:</strong>Aleana Schiller (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=234819.msg11575159#msg11575159)<br/><strong>Position:</strong>Keeper of the Chronicles, Blue Ajah<br/><strong>Bondmate:</strong>Ardan<br/><strong>Tag:</strong>Ardan | Closed<br/><strong>Time:</strong>Evening | Saven 5 | 990NE<br/><strong>Place:</strong>Aleana’s Room<br/><strong>Warning:</strong><br/><hr/>“It has been an eventful day.”  Aleana agreed, a quiet sigh slipping from her lips.  That someone wanted her dead was not much of a surprise.  Many felt that way about all Aes Sedai.  But the fact that someone had tried to accomplish her death inside the White Tower was concerning.  “And no doubt will be an eventful morning for both of us.”  She paused for a moment, a hint of worry slipping through her happiness.  “I would like to inform the Amyrlin Seat in the morning as to what happened.”  She paused again, hesitating slightly.  “And introduce you as my Gaidin.”  She finally added.  While Raine had met Ardan and she had known of Aleana’s interest in potentially bonding the man, it hadn’t been discussed for quite some time.<br/><br/>Pondering the question about him departing, her tan gaze flicked around her room.  She wasn’t particularly interested in him departing but, undoubtedly, there were things he would wish to accomplish on his own.  “You’re more than welcome to stay here.”  She offered easily, it being her preference.  “But I also understand you have much to accomplish yourself so if you wish to do as such, I understand.”  Though she had hoped to wait on any business until morning, it simply wasn’t how her mind worked.  Between being bonded to her and the events of the night, there was much that would change for Ardan as well.  The Masters would need to be informed to both his rise and the attempted assassination and, of course, he would be allowed to move to a private room.  A flicker of disappointment at the thought washed over her quickly before fading into thoughtfulness.<br/><br/>“There’s so much to discuss.”  She said aloud after remaining deep in thought for a short time.  Gently slipping out of their embrace, she met his eyes, a smile slowly spreading across her face.  “Though I said we should wait for morning, and still feel that way, I can’t help the onslaught of questions and thoughts I’ve had.”  She explained and chuckled, amused at herself.  Would they end up staying in the Blue Hall together?  What would their relationship entail?  She had been so certain that it would be completely platonic if she were to bond anyone but would that even be possible?  They were so connected, their lives so entwined.  Was it really possible to maintain a professional relationship?  Would either of them really want that?<br/><br/>Rolling her eyes at her own thoughts, a burst of ironic amusement flashing through her, she tried to force her questions and concerns aside as she had promised herself she would do.  Glancing at her closet, her tan eyes brightened.  “I should get changed.”  She mentioned casually.  “If you do want to stay here for the night, is there anything you need?  I can have an Accepted or Novice collect whatever you might need.”
