This is Cynayne's sandbox for Kitan's wiki class.

Cynayne is a most brilliant student. Cynayne deserves an A for this class. Cynayne is also excellent with bubbles and subversive plots (but in a fun way)

Cynayne wants to go to the Tower. Which ever ajah she might one day join can be sure:

She will never give them up
She will never let them down
She will never run around and desert them
She will never make them cry
She will never say goodbye
She will never tell a lie, because the Oath Rod prevents that.

Chicken Chicken Chicken

Because I wanted a table of contents, and Chicken Chicken Chicken is the title of one of my friends' cookbooks. Also, I think it is awesome.

  • However, I do have chickens. Three hens to be exact
    • S.H.I.E.L.D.
      • Strategic Henhouse Initiative, Egg Laying Division
      • All hens are named after women from the Marvel Universe
        • Current Agents in Residence
          • Pepper Potts (grey splashed Jersey Giant)
          • Margaret (Peggy) Carter (Buff Orpington)
          • Wanda Maximoff (White Leghorn)
        • Previous Agents
          • Natasha Alianovna (on assignment)
          • Maria Hill (on assignment)
      • Headquarters are in a secret location in my back yard that keeps moving around for fresh grass and security purposes.
      • No roosters are allowed. That would be against everything S.H.I.E.L.D stands for. Literally.

Novice Journal

Cynayne Nilonne Novice Journal #1

Day One: I am announced! Today I am starting to pack for my move into the Tower. Hopefully I can get some boxes from behind the Olde Warder and Hen for some of it. I will get up early tomorrow morning and see what I can find.

Day Two: I found two great crates I can pack in and use for dorm furniture if I need to. Score! Since I didn’t bring too much with me from Cairhien I don’t actually know that I’ll be able to fill them both up, but it makes hauling what I do have a lot easier. I think I’m going to have a nap before I start packing, because there’s nothing surer to make me as cranky as a cross-eyed grolm than missing sleep, and I got a ridiculously early start this morning.

Day Three: I’m packed and ready! Hauling it all over to the Tower today! Wish me luck, or a few strapping young farm boys. For carrying, obviously.

Day Three, later: Hey, this place is locked up tighter than a Seanchan’s…

Day Four: Good thing I was in the Blight Scouts. Since I had to spend the night out here I managed to make a little lean-to out of two old cloaks and some branches. It managed to keep most of last night’s rain out, but some of my parchment is ruined. No matter, I’m sure there’s plenty of fresh stuff inside. The gates should be opening any minute now, so I’m going to pack this stuff back up. I am so excited!

Day Five: I didn’t have enough money for a room at the Lucky Fox, but I did get dinner there last night, and it was really good. The innkeeper there gave me an old blanket to use if I have to sleep out again tonight, which was really nice of her, but I’m not going to need it.

Day Six: That blanket made a huge difference! Thank the light I had it. What is up with this? There’s all this bustling about, but no one will let me in. Today I think I will polish my fingernails novice white. Just because.

Day Seven: Well, I have quite the little setup here now, I found an old bucket to use as a fire pit, and I made a fishing pole from a nice green sapling and some cord I found. I even caught a fish off the north bridge over the Arindrelle Erinin and had it for lunch! Maybe this is a test. I am showing patience and resourcefulness, that’s got to count for something. I’ll bet if I bang on the gates and yell for someone to let me in I fail. Fine, I can sit here till they let me in. They did call me, after all. You want patience? I can do that. Meanwhile, I’ve started a little library. A passer-by gave me a book to read this morning. Travels of Jain Farstrider. Not that I haven’t read that a hundred times, but it passes the time. I pulled my other books out and rearranged my crates, and I have all my books and parchment and pens set up like a little desk with an oilskin to throw over them if it rains. I’m good.

Day Eight: I got bored and started making a list of activities for a Shaoman party. It’s a long way off, but I know that as soon as they let me in the Tower I won’t have time for thinking about it, so I may as well get my thoughts down now. Light, I hope I’m at the right gate. Wouldn’t it be awful if it turned out I was at the wrong gate? I’d better go for a walk around and check. Maybe finding the right gate is the test. Light, I’ve failed already. Too stupid for the Tower if you can’t find the way in. That’s kind of smart, though, culling out stupidity right off. I’m going to check.

Day Nine: Yesterday I went around the whole Tower and even though I couldn’t find an open gate, I found a small bunch of turnips. I guess someone dropped them. I had one with a fish for dinner. I’m not going to say it was haute cuisine, but it’s better than a fish alone.

Day Ten: Someone knows I’m out here. They are dropping food to me. I went for another walk this morning and found some carrots right where the turnips were yesterday. I wonder if my friend Fern knows I’m out here and is trying to help me out. I’ll have to ask her when I get inside. Meanwhile, carrots! Maybe tomorrow I’ll get an onion.

Day Eleven: More turnips. I’ve started carving a few of them to have something to do. I’ve got one that looks like an angreal. A pretty good one, if I say so myself. Too bad it doesn’t work like one or I could blast my way in. Ah, well, I am amusing someone, somewhere. I am writing a letter to the Sherriff to see if I can get some help. They can’t keep me out here forever. Probably there will come a day once I enter that I think back fondly on these days of freedom. If they keep dropping turnips, I could build a little model of the city in turnip carvings!

Day Twelve I managed to sell a turnip carving today to an admirer of my work. Actually, I think he just wanted to eat it. One thing I haven't mentioned are the awful feverish headaches I've been getting recently. Since I found the first turnips, come to think of it. They taste fine, I don't think that they are bad. What if someone in the Tower is actually trying to poison me, sending me poisoned turnips? Burn me, but I am starting to sound crazy even to myself! Well, I didn't feel well enough to go for my walk today, I just huddled under my little shelter while it rained and stared daggers at the gates. Maybe I'm just catching cold from sleeping rough. I don't know. I'm going to turn in early and try to get some rest. How much longer could this go on?
