Vos stod up and tried to work the stiffnes out of his legs and neck. "I feel better now thanks, just had some, ...not so pleasent dreams."
When Vos walked up to Jaisin and Broawien, he noticed that the man no longer had his emotions well under controll. He looked both haunted and reliefed at the same time. What he saw in the man's face made him realize that Jaisin's voice had been almost shrill as well. What could the Aes Sedai have said to effect the man this way, Vos woundered. He guessed that non of them would like it if he asked though. So Vos just pretended that he had noticed nothing out of the ordinary.
"Are we going to leave soon, and where are you planing to go?" He asked instead.

Being served.... He had just broke off in midsentence, something that Broawien had always hated men doing. His face was crimson as he broke his gaze away looking to Vos, speaking to him. Broawien sat back up and looked to the boy, he did look a little better, although not very rested.
Looking to the Aiel woman Broawien thought about the way the woman had immedeately laid down after Vos, after watching him the entire morning. She must be a Dreamer. Broawien had learned about that as a novice, her many years as a novice, supposedly the women, without channeling could enter the Tel'aran'rhoid. She didnt know much about it, since Broawien had seated herself close to a window overlooking the Practice yards, but there was something dangerous about the Dream World.
Standing, Broawien brushed her skirts and went to Vos, "How are you doing boy? Do you feel alright? Tell me what do you remember of..." Broawien kept speaking as she delved the man again, finding his wound healed and only a lingering weariness. releasing his temples she stood, "You are doing quite well dear one."

Jaisin exhaled, relieved, when Broawien walked by him to get to Vos. He almost laughed when she called him 'dear one', the woman had no sense of propriety..."Well. Broawien Sedai, if we are going to go on, why not now, since Vos is rested? My feet are itching to travel. Do you intend to bring the Aiel? What did she say to you?" He knew she probably wouldn't tell him, Aes Sedai never did, but she seemed different to most of the stiff lipped Aes Sedai he was used to. Too different, probably, he thought ruefully, his face pinkening again at her forwardness...

Baack!...you have been busy while I was away...naughty.
Aleandra smiled at the word "strange". Of all the compliments, and insults she had received, none of them had called her strange. Alright boy. I'll remember that. She heaved a sigh of releif as she watched the boy fade and leave. It was high time to go too, but since she was here...She could search the forest to look for any signs of the Trollocs. But when she appeared there, the usual tracks where there, but vanishing and appearing slowly, they wouldn't be any use now.
Returning to her body, she yawned and streched to give the illusion of "real" sleep. She looked up at the group, just as the older man was saying " Do you intend to bring the Aiel?" She still didn't know his name. The Aiel will be comming with you. And her name is Aleandra.She said to the man. And then with a second thought she turned to the Aes sedai If it does not trouble you, Aes sedai. Discreetly she looked into the boy's eyes, and touched her elbow, exactly where he had shown her his scar.

ooc: What about your darkfriend? Going to stop tracking him?
Vos was glad that Broawien and Jaisin both had turned to face Aleandra as she spoke. That way none of them could see how his face paled when realizing that Aleandra had somehow been in his dream. He had made such a fool of himself, and he knew he had to apologize to her. Obviously though she had no intention of talking about it in front of the other two. He had to wait till he could talk to her away from Broawien and Jaisin. Shame over how he had behaved in the dream turned to curiosity. Maybe she could tell him more about that kind of dreams. She had seemed so at home in the dream, but then again her appearance spoke of confidence here as well.

ooc: Alea lost the track, but she doesn't want to admit it.She knows they folowed you, but the fact that they are so disorganised that she doesn't see a thing made her come to you guys. Even the World of dreams didn't help her. And she's hoping that you will led him to her. Or that he will come after you

Jaisin grunted when the Aiel said she would be coming. What was she doing here? Why should he care what her name was? But his upbringin demanded honour, so he replied."Peace be on you and yours Aleandra. I am named Jaisin Sha...Jaisin." Him and his blathering tongue, he had almost slipped again. Even a new Aes Sedai would know of Lord Sharinen, he was a noble of some importance and a well known general, for the good it did him now.

Broawien nodded her ascent for the Aiel joining her small company, as Jaisin spoke, "Peace be on you and yours Aleandra. I am named Jaisin Sha...Jaisin." He had almost slipped, on, something, his name, Broawien supposed. Argh! Broawien thought, He was thrown off balance! Perhaps tonite I can throw him off enough to know what he is hiding. The small blonde woman had always hated a mystery and under such strange conditions, she would perfer no secrets.
Looking back at Vos, Broawien decided that itwas past time for them to move on. "Let us be quick about it then, if you wish to be on the move. Men, I want one of you to scout ahead, um, Jaisin, you do it. You look like an experienced solider. Vos I would like you to fix this camp, cover our ever being here, as well as you are able. Wise One, I would like to speak with you again, before we get too far."
When at first Jaisin did not move, she glared up at him until he did. Vos cast around and finally set to work. Walking over to wear Aleandra stood, Broawien said, "About this shadowspawn of a man you are chasing, do you still intend to find him?"

Aleandra simply nodded. So...Jaisin. He didn't seem to want to reveal everything, he was hiding something. But she let it go. She had other things on her mind.
So. The boy could Dreamwalk, maybe because of a special bond with wolves, but she doubted it. It would have started with the contact of the creatures. But this didn't matter, he duty now was to teach him. Leaving him in the dark about Tel'aran'rhoid never entered her mind. That would have ben the same as leaving a child to the Waste's mercy. Which the place didn't have.
She kept her eyes on the boy, making sure he understood. He was pale...good. She hope they would have an opportunity to talk in person, she didn't want them to meet in the World yet, it was still to dangerous. She spared a glance at the Aes Sedai. She had a curious expresion...oh no...Alea hope she didn't know what Dreamwalking was, but it was probably a vain thing. Maybe she knew....
"About this shadowspawn of a man you are chasing, do you still intend to find him?" She sighed...she hated to admit it...It was shaming! But then at least the Aes Sedai had the right to know. I think he, or the group he is travelling with, may be after one of you. She looked up in her eyes, Alea didn't need to say anymore...and more importantly, she didn't have to say she'd lost the trail.

It didn't take Vos much time to hide, as best he could, that they had ever had a camp in the clearing. Broawien Sedai didn't seem to care much about what he did, and Vos couldn't understand why she hadn't given Jaisin the direction they would be traveling in. At least he thought that that was what Jaisin had been waiting for as he hadn't moved out at ones.
Even if Broawien didn't pay much mind to what Vos did, he noticed that Aleandra sure did. Vos also had the feeling that the woman could have covered their tracks both faster and better then Vos ever could.
When he was finished he looked at the women, and suddenly realized how dirty he was compared to the two of them. Of course he would be dirty compared to anyone. He doubted that it would even be possible to get most of his clothes clean again. Vos decided to try and keep some distance to the two wommen.

Broawien nodded, at the Aiel woman. Being bait was not what she had intenedto do when she had started searching for her Warders, but for an Aes Sedai destroying shadowspawn came before personal desires. "Do you have any idea which one of us they might be after? Never mind, it doesnt matter as a sister of the Green Ajah, I am bound to fight them. " Looking toward the men her gaze lingering on Vos, Broawien lowered her voice, "Aleandra, are you a Dreamwalker? I only remember hearing of it as a novice, but a Brown sister once told me that they are fairly common among the Aiel, she was fascinated with your people. That is beside the point though. Vos, doeesn't appear very rested after his sleep, and niether do you honestly. I would like to help you if there is anything that I can do, perhaps wards while you enter Tel'aran'rhoid?" Offering help was not something that Broawien did often, but this was different, thiswas something that could cost at least some of them thier lives.

Aleandra was going to nod approvingly as she heard that Broawien's duty was to kill shadowspawn, most wetlanders did't even know the existence of Trollocs, but then she heard the dreaded phrase: "Aleandra, are you a Dreamwalker?" Lying about that never entered her mind, it never did in an Aiel's mind, but ignoring the question wouldn't do, she had even offered her help, she was concerned. I thank you Broawien Sedai, but wards can only be set on normal dreams. It did have many other uses, but she didn't og into detail, it would take too much time.I was going to ask you to keep this information secret, but seeing that the Aes Sedai already know Dreamwalking is common then i do not think it will be nessesary.

Jaisin obeyed Broawien, moving south out of the clearing, muttering "Bloody Aes Sedai, always giving bloody orders..." He was more angry at himself than at her though. As he entered the forest, he realised it was still too quiet, someone or something was still out there...but what? He ghosted forward through the trees, searching for evidence of someone, tracks, smokee, anything, but found nothing. After a few minutes, the oppressive silence started to wear on him, making him jump at the rustle of branches in the wind. Silently berating himself for acting like a child, he decided to report back to Broawien. "Light, I'm already thinking of her as my boss." Sighing, he turned and started back towards the others, to tell Broawien that there was something out there that he couldn't find...

[glow=red,2,300]Before this goes too far, please take a minute or so to think about what the books say. Aleandra should not know of a wolfbrother, since that's extremely rare. Elyas tells Perrin that he might've been the first since before AOL. And Broawien might have heard of dreamwalking, but that's also something rare, at least among Aes Sedai. Maybe she'd known more if she'd been Brown, but she's not...
Just like you're not physically superior, don't try to pretend that you know/understand everything. I will not edit the stuff done so far, but from now on I'll be definitly harder on things like these.[/glow]

ooc: Sorry Majsju, I didn't have an explanation for his dreamwalking, and wasn't sure what he wanted at the time. Won't happen again
"Seems Jaisin is impatient to leave, and I must admit, he is wiser than he seems. Aes Sedai, if you do not object?" She motioned politely to Broawien, indicating that it would be best to leave now.
