Jahar Narishma is an [[Arafel]]lin [[Asha'man]]. He is a bit older than [[Rand]] but looks really young ({{loc|18}}). He has large dark eyes, as big as a girl's wears his hair in two long braids with bells and looks pretty ({{loc|42}}). He had the ability to channel inborn, and [[Taim]] took the opportunity of discovering him to visit Rand ({{loc|28}}) to tell him.  After [[Dumai's Wells]], Rand picks him as one of his bodyguards ({{acos|2}}).  Though Rand becomes every less trusting, he does trust Narishma to an extent and even sends him to collect ''[[Callandor]]''. It is stated in the [[Prophecies of the Dragon]] on Callandor ''"Who draws it out shall follow after.''", though what this means is not clear ({{tpod|14}}). After the attack on the [[Sun Palace]], Rand tells [[Min]] not to trust anyone from the [[Black Tower]] apart from Narishma, [[Flinn]] and [[Hopwil]]. In his absence, Narishma becomes afraid of the other Asha'man at the Black Tower and allows [[Merise]] to bond him for protection ({{wh|25}}). They stay with Rand while he cleanses the [[taint]] and the aftermath.

General

Jahar Narishma is an Arafellin Asha'man. He is a bit older than Rand but looks really young (LoC, Ch. 18). He has large dark eyes, as big as a girl's wears his hair in two long braids with bells and looks pretty (LoC, Ch. 42). He had the ability to channel inborn, and Taim took the opportunity of discovering him to visit Rand (LoC, Ch. 28) to tell him. After Dumai's Wells, Rand picks him as one of his bodyguards (ACoS, Ch. 2). Though Rand becomes every less trusting, he does trust Narishma to an extent and even sends him to collect Callandor. It is stated in the Prophecies of the Dragon on Callandor "Who draws it out shall follow after.", though what this means is not clear (TPoD, Ch. 14). After the attack on the Sun Palace, Rand tells Min not to trust anyone from the Black Tower apart from Narishma, Flinn and Hopwil. In his absence, Narishma becomes afraid of the other Asha'man at the Black Tower and allows Merise to bond him for protection (WH, Ch. 25). They stay with Rand while he cleanses the taint and the aftermath.
