Jahar Narishma

This article is a stub. A longer, more in depth article will be added at a later time.

Jahar Narishma is an Arafellin Asha'man. He is a bit older than Rand but looks really young. He has large dark eyes, wears his hair in two long braids with bells and looks pretty.

Taim comes to Cairhien to tell Rand that he found a new recruit called Jahar Narishma (LoC, Ch. 28). Narishma is present when Rand comes to the Black Tower to adress the Asha'man and give them their pins (LoC, Ch. 42). He is still a soldier at that time.

Narishma is among the Asha'man led by Taim to rescue Rand at Dumai's Wells (LoC, Ch. 55). After the battle, Rand chooses Narishma and eight other Asha'man to accompany him to Cairhien (ACoS, Ch. 2).

Narishma Travels to Illian with Rand and fights to defeat Sammael's troops (ACoS, Ch. 41). After the battle he is sent back to Cairhien with a message for Min that Illian is taken (TPoD, Ch. 27).

Rand promotes Narishma to Soldier. He announces he intends to cleanse saidin and sends Narishma to the Stone of Tear to fetch Callandor (TPoD, Ch. 14).

Narishma brings back Callandor to Rand and tells him he was nearly killed by the wards Rand had placed (TPoD, Ch. 21).

Narishma is among the Asha'man taking part in the fights again the Seanchan in Altara (TPoD, Ch. 24).

After the attack on Rand at the Sun Palace in Cairhien, Narishma, Flinn and Hopwil stay in Cairhien, because they fear they would be blamed for the attack if they return to the Black Tower (WH, Ch. 25). Taim has them listed as deserters (WH, Prologue). Narishma, Flinn and Hopwil are the only Asha'man trusted by Rand (WH, Ch. 12).

Narishma is bonded by Merise Haindehl, one of the Aes Sedai following Cadsuane (WH, Ch. 25). Thus he is among Cadsuane's party when they follow Rand to Far Madding (WH, Ch. 23). After liberating Rand from his prison they accompany him to Shadar Logoth (WH, Ch. 35).

While Rand is cleansing the saidin with Nynaeve, Jahar is linked with Elza Penfell and Merise. Together they use Callandor to drive off the Forsaken (WH, Ch. 35).

Rand promotes Narishma to full Asha'man, but Merise will not let him accept the dragon pin (CoT, Ch. 23).

It is stated in the Prophecies of the Dragon on Callandor "Who draws it out shall follow after." Rand wonders what that means for Narishma.

Merise and her three warders go the camp of the Salidar Aes Sedai, with an offer from Rand that sisters may bond up to forty seven Asha'man (KoD, Ch. 23).

Merise and Narishma accompany Rand to the meeting with the false Daughter of the Nine Moons. Narishma is injured during the battle, then healed by Merise. (KoD, Ch. 27).
