35th Saun, 718

Tei'serin was more than ready for the trials filled with constant sunlight and unbearable heat to be over. She liked the warm weather as much as anyone did, but the heat of Saun was taxing at best. And knowing that her poor daughter...

43rd Ymiden, 718

Good morning, class.

Good morning, Ms. Nji'ryn

Tei'serin grinned at Meiarin, nodding in approval when the little girl remembered to use her last name while they were in the classroom. She was getting better about doing that,...

7th Ymiden, 718

This trial was the Feast of the Heavens, and since it was an important festival, it was all that the kids wanted to talk about. The warm weather, and brilliantly clear skies did little to make her students any less restless. Later in...

63rd Ashan, 718

As Ei'ryl cried out for attention, Tei'serin paused to get a clean diaper on her way to get her daughter. She knew that cry. Ei'ryl needed a diaper change, and she would not be happy with any delays on her mother's part. Tei'serin...

This seems to be becoming a habit. Tei'serin mused ruefully.

This was the fact that she was sitting at her desk in the school house struggling to stay awake while she waited for her students to arrive. Ei'ryl was a very early riser....

It was evening but as it was in Saun it made no difference. The two suns were shining night and day and the weather was nearly annoyingly hot. Yrmellyn had been given the directions to the home...

25th Cylus, 718

Tei'serin blinked tiredly. Having a newborn in the house meant that getting a full night's sleep was little more than a precious memory. To make matters worse, she had had to cut back on what little sleep she might have been able to...

1st Cylus, 718

Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!

Tei'serin cringed inwardly at the two happily chanting voices. Her injuries from Thorin's last punishment were still healing, so sleep was hard to come by for her. Finding a comfortable position to sleep...

22 Ymiden 713
Something about it felt wrong to Thys, but then again - this was a last resort. It was a rotation of power they had done before. An agreement had been reached, as well as an understanding, and that was what lead to the mortal born standing in front of the tavern on that cool...

89th Zi'da, 717

Tei'serin winced as she limped slowly into her living room, and selected a book to read before easing herself into the chair beside her desk. After what Thorin did to her the trial before, she couldn't even breathe without pain,...

11th Zi'da, 717

Tei'serin sat at her desk with a pile of papers beside her. She had given the kids a vocabulary test that morning, and she hoped to get them graded while they were enjoying their lunch and recess break. To make it easier on herself,...

40th Vhalar, 717

Sorry Tei'serin.

Strong calloused hands held her down as the red hot brand was pressed firmly against her skin. She screamed.

Tei'serin's eyes flew open in panic, and she sat up in bed. The sudden movement cause pain to flare...

22nd of Ymiden, 702

Planning was not her domain. It was her mothers, her sisters, her brothers. But her and her father? They went with wherever the waves designed to take them, be it to a rocky shore or a smooth sandy one. To Korva it was all the same, each beat of world turning and she rolled...

26th Vhalar, 717

Tei'serin smiled to herself as she rode into the village. This trial was a very special trial. It was the trial when Ne'haer celebrated their heroes. Treth had their own version of the holiday. And Tei'serin had a fun trial planned...

Vhalar 51 717 Arc

Gennadiya stepped off the boat that had ferried her from Ne'haer to the small suburb of Treth. The young healer had never been to the little town south of Ne'haer as nothing there had ever drawn her attention. Recently that had changed as she had begun to hear rumors of a miracle...

33rd of Saun, 713

“Kali! Kali! Wake up!”

“Kor, it’s not even daylight yet! If yer cravin’ fish so bad then jump off—“

“My stomach hurts.”

“I’m up! Sit. Where does it hurt?”

“Dunno, just in my stomach…I—I didn’t wanna wake up, Rivan…again.”

“Is yer brain water logged?! Get ‘im up first!”...

*Speaking Rakahi

Rivan stared at Korva, jaw set as she stared listlessly into the water, net long since dropped at her feet rather than in the water. But she couldn’t seem to tear her eyes away, not even when he called her name. She wish he’d stop for just...

33rd Saun, 717

Tei'serin hated doing errands for Thorin with a passion. She could do everything she was told, right down to the most minute detail...and it wouldn't matter. He would still find fault in her work. And his punishments for failure...

Seeing all of the different crafts that were available at the market this trial was a fascinating experience for Tei'serin. Some of them had even given her ideas of things that she wanted to learn how to do herself. It also helped...

Tei'serin was exhausted from a long trial of shopping as she made her way back to Valfield Farms. But the idea of learning more about gardening fascinated her. It was more than enough to make her willing to push her departure from the...
